Outside.....

The outside is usually left up to my husband to look after.
​But the weather was so nice, once it warmed up.
​We have chickens and need the backyard to be kept neat, plus they love walking round the backyard.
And I also wanted to add in a  couple of new areas, one being my sanctuary.
​So while I was out there I had a quick clean up.

​We are so lucky that our yard is quite big and we have an area up one side of the house, years ago we put down fake grass and that's where we store the toys.
​All the scooters and bikes are stood up against the house.
​We have an old clam shell that stores all the balls and outdoor play toys.
​There is also a roller coaster up next to the fence.

At the other side of the house, we have the cubby house.
​There is not a lot in there, just the blackboard chalk, dolls house and the play crockery.

​So this day I set up the two new areas, my sanctuary and the kids eating area.
​After I set up the kids eating area, I had a spare box to put the rubbish in.
​I just walked around and put the toys where they should live and anything that was broken or just needed to be thrown out went into the box.
​Which I will take to the tip on the weekend (with other things)

​My sanctuary is still not finished, but it is slowly getting there.
​I picked up the outdoor rug from Kmart and used tent pegs to hold it in the ground.
​The kids set I got from reject shop, I first saw these down the coast and have been keeping my eyes out for these. So I was over joyed when I spotted them in my local reject shop.
