FlowerFriday6 Roses and a violet

We are back into our regular Friday routine now, except that Violet had a sleepover with us last night, which was rather nice as we could laze around in pyjamas for a little longer than usual.
Now, Tumble Tots begins at the later time of 12.45 which is a relief as it always seem to be struggle to get there for the earlier time.  Before we went, Violet practiced some of the songs with her TT DVD .  Some essential equipment for these is a set of 'lummi sticks' and a pair of beanbags.  In extras she is taking a break holding the sticks and looking far more serious than she actually was feeling!
My main blip is of the Handel roses which are still blooming like crazy up the front of our house and today I had the luck to photograph them against an almost clear blue sky.  When the weather is like this, I don't mind it being Autumn at all.
