The Garden
Warming Party
7 April 2002
As our
housewarming party is still quite a way off, we thought it would be lovely
to invite
our family and friends to a Garden Warming Party.
It was a 'BYO Everything' event, but we did manage to organise the
most perfect weather!
Here's Mum (Beatrice) setting off on the first 'conducted tour' of the day.
Mum was
thrilled to find that so many of her friends made the expedition out to Healesville
to join us on this wonderful day.
The weather
was so warm that some felt the need to seek shelter in the shade.
This beautiful
metal sculpture was a garden warming gift from the Dunolly Ashtons,
made by Anna and her plasma cutter!
It is a replica of the tiny little drawing I made and printed on the invitation
envelopes.
It depicts Jonni with his resurrected heart (or is it the old discarded one?),
Mum with her beloved VW beetle, and me (Cecilia) endeavouring to grow Australian
native plants.
It will find itself a treasured feature in our new garden.
