Floriade, our month long celebration of Spring has started and we couldn't be happier. Each year we visit Floriade frequently, entry is free during the day and there is so much for the children to do and see. Floriade - we love you!

My photograph on Instagram was taken from the top of this Ferris Wheel. I was trying really hard to stay calm, I'm not good with heights!

So many ideas for the home garden! We stayed clear of the celebrities but we would like to go back to meet Costa. He is such a good role model and is really engaging. Why do my vegetables never look this healthy?

The boys held a chick and a baby rabbit. It confirmed my thoughts that we need more pets.

Caspar spoke at length with the chicken keeper. Yes, we would love some chickens but please no rooster.

This (below) is just a fantastic idea! Plants in upside down recycled milk containers. The lids at the bottom are on but have some absorbent cloth hanging out, the lids are not on tight and it looks like excess moisture can escape and drip out.

Floriade is open until 13 October 2013.
