Earth Day Photo Challenge Prize

Imagine our surprise today when a little parcel arrived in the post for us.

We had forgotten all about the Earth Day Photo Challenge competition we had won on Hitty Girls.


Lots of goodies arrived especially for us.


Hitty Moana shows some of the lovely gardening books which will be a valuable resource.


Looks like Hitty Carol Faith has almost fallen asleep reading hers!


Hitty Natalie Rose couldn't be more delighted.  She has more seeds, gloves and row markers for her garden.


Best of all she received a little bonnet and bag which couldn't match her lovely dress and apron any more perfectly.


What a super surprise indeed.

Thank you so much Susan K.

A Busy Monday

Rose Cottage was buzzing with activity today.


Hitty Mary Jean was helping Becassine tidy up the Boarding house when she found the two shells Hitty Helen R & M had found on Orewa Beach in New Zealand...they must have forgot to pack them so she packaged them up and they are now on their way to them.


Hitty Madge was admiring the purple rhododendrons


She also picked some purple flowers for the vase in their living room.


There, that looks pretty.


Hitty Phoebe is going to go and do some shopping and asks Hitty Moana and Hitty Rimu if they would like to come with her.


Hitty Joyful is busy in the tearoom.


Whilst out side the boys are playing, Hitty Carol Faith is doing what she does best and Hitty Natalie Rose is going to plant some seeds.

A New Girl has Awakened.


There were rather a few tears last week...but hopefully Hitty Mary Jean has cheered up now.

She should do soon anyway as Hitty Anne has finally awakened!  


Here she is waiting to dry.


I didn't have and could find the right size dowel for her pegs, so used elastic and some little buttons instead.  She is much happier now she is altogether.


She finally got to put on her 'welcome home' clothes that were made back in January!
