Getting Mum laughing

Getting my Mum to smile, never mind laugh, is always tricky. When asked to smile for a photo she adopts the most sombre of faces. For all I know she's smiling inside, but no-one would know. But when I tripped over something getting round the back of her chair a laugh sort of burst out of her!

Archie and his brother William were also entering into the spirit of things, as you see.

On the way home I met up with RosInAus for a cup of tea - to read the continuing saga of the chocolate and beetroot cake look here.

I've decided to make this a week of portraits, having done two in a row!
