It's been a record breaking heatwave week in this part of the world, Saturday reached a top of 42°C .....
soooo hot !!!
I'm much more of a cold climate girl, I'm actually very envious of the snow some of my overseas friends are having at the moment.
So it was lots of fans, water and showers at my house .....

my dog Malcom took refuge on the bathroom tiles .... (in-between being hosed down) ....
Meg got the fan and the couch .....
.... and I took over my son Barney's room (he was away for the weekend), being downstairs with concrete floors made it the coolest room in the house ...
.... and I was soon joined by this pair.
The sun was still bright well into the evening ....
but we still managed to have a very fun night on the deck with some great girlfriends (my husband was also away with my son) .... food, wine and laughs, a perfect way to beat the heat !!!
Thankfully today the rain came .... and how sweet it is !!!

I always think that the heat would be better specially the days when we have 20 below cero..
40+thats HOT, and I would (being a Norwegian girl an all)probably die:)
Hope Sunday is better for you...
Have a great day.
My poor daughter moved house on Sunday from Potts Point to Newtown. And then to add insult to injury stepped on a bee! I hope you all have some much needed relief this week.
GORGEOUS photos! Your house is lovely! I can't believe what different weather you are experiencing.. it's a mild february around here.. Nothing like your heatwave!
Happy Sunday!xxxxx

I love your photos! they really makes me feel like if here was hot too. I specially love the last one.

If you'd like, i'll send you a package of refreshing western european winter :) No not really, because it's already turning to 12 degrees over here, so it's not really cold.
You are so funny. It's 46 degrees in Texas and I'm absolutely freezing!! I've always lived in the South, and I love to be HOT. Gimme 100 degree weather any day.
PS- My goodness, the trees in your yard are gorgeous. What state are you in??
Hugs!

Although this is winter, this weekend has there been the sun.
