Communal Global ~ "Village Fun-Day"

Ours is quite a small village and the playground had seen much better days! This summer, with the help of the local community, a new one has been installed ~ and it's wonderful to see all children of all ages having fun together. Friday was the 'Grand Opening' with bouncy castle, face painting and the local radio station along for the ride. It was a brilliantly fun couple of hours in the park with so many local folk there. 

Enjoy the pics :-)

And now share your slice of life with us ~ link up and link in :)

iheartfaces ~ Photo Challenge ~ Pet Week

A few weeks ago I did a photo-shoot for a friend.

Sam is a dog trainer with her own business and she needed some promotional shots as well as some family ones.

Koda is her beautiful Northern Inuit dog.

But Koda is also a cheeky adolescent and this picture just made Sam and me laugh aloud ~ it just about sums Koda up somehow!

I ♥ Faces - "Friendship"

'Trouble comes in Two's!'

These two may be brothers, but they are also soul-mates (when they're not squabbling!).

I love this portrait of the two of them and the mischievous connection between them :-)

Communal Global ~ @ The Park

A failed trip to pick strawberries led to an hour's play in the park. 

 The kids played on the apparatus...

Paul played with the kids...

and on the climbing wall...

Baby played with the grass,

(he loves the grass!)

  and I played with my camera!
