Aurora Borealis, the colored lights seen in the skies around the North Pole, the Northern Lights, from Bear Lake, Alaska, Beautiful Christmas Scene, Winter Star Filled Skies, Scenic Nature, a photo by Beverly & Pack on Flickr.

I won't accompany this photo with many words because I've said on here before - more than once I would imagine - how much I really want to see the northern lights. I can't resist showing you this magical photo though as the light and the colours are just beyond beautiful. The purple glow on the snow is just amazing.

I don't think there is much rain forecast for the next week so I can post a fabulous rainy day photo and not feel too depressed by it. And this picture really is fun and fabulous. It looks like there must have been a lot rain before this was taken but then rain cleared up, the sun came out and the welly boots went on. What fun jumping in puddles as big as this!

Do you know what I hate about the rain? Being stuck in a downpour when out with the pushair and no way of carrying an umbrella at the same time. And then having to stay stuck in the wet clothes for hours afterwards. Do you know what I love about the rain? Lying in bed listening to the rain hammering it down outside while I'm all tucked up warm and cosy.

What do you think when you see rain forecast?

I can't believe it's the weekend again. This week has just flown by. I guess that's down to being a busy bee and not sitting around the house feeling sorry for myself! Have you got anything fun planned for the next couple of days? I shall mostly be party planning as my daughter will be turning four next week and serious celebrating needs to be done. I can't believe she's going to be four. That's so grown up!

As well as busying myself with birthdays I also should find a bit of time to lie down on the ground and take some fabuous photos of autumn leaves rather like this one! The colours in this are beautiful. Just vibrant, bright, and well, autumny.

Happy weekend to you all!

'Too many?' by Me

Too many?, a photo by PhotoPuddle on Flickr.

Well I seem to have completely recovered from the unsociable mood I was in and this week has been manic. But that's the way I like things. I like to be busy. I did find time to take some photos though. I wanted to take a few snaps of my ever growing Converse collection. I have called this 'Too many?' which was a daft question really as of course it's not too many. I need more!

It's late and I don't really have time for blogging tonight but I just thought I'd visit my blog briefly to post this lovely photo. I love this sort of image of Greek buildings and as a follow on from my last post really makes me want to go on holiday. I have been to Greece once, a place called Lefkas, and I really loved it there. I hope one day to go back and explore a bit more of the country.

Anyway, must dash. Hope you like this photo as much as I do.

'Boing 747 -- 30.000 feets' by Joseph Ventura

Boing 747 -- 30.000 feets, a photo by Josep Ventura on Flickr.

Last week my husband went abroad for a couple of days with work and I took the kids up to the airport to wave him off. My daughter loved every minute of it. She even took her little wheely suitcase with her and pulled round the airport with her all the time we were there. I must admit I rather love airports and the excitement of being about jet off on holiday somewhere. Being at the airport really made me want a holiday abroad. We used to take holidays abroad all the time but now I just keep wondering how stressful it would be as a family of four which is silly really as people do it all the time!

I love this photo of an aeroplane especially the very fluffy looking vapour trails. The best bit is that deep blue sky though. How beautiful.

My awesome hubby bought me new Converse today to cheer me up as I've not had a great week. Job done, a new pair of Chucks is an instant mood lifter! I really need to get a photo of all my Converse trainers as I am sure it'd actually make for a rather cool image. I think the last time I did a group shot there were five pairs and I have seven pairs now! And before you ask, yes I do actually wear all of them regularly. You can tell by how bashed up they're all starting to look.

This fantastic photograph has help me make a decision. I am so buying my son a pair of red ones when he's able to walk! I'm not sure I actually fancy red for myself but they look so cool on kids!

Hope you all had a great weekend and have a fab week ahead to look forward to.
