Poor Matilda has Carlotta's cold today so I tried Poor Matilda has Carlotta's cold today so I tried to cheer her up by decorating the Christmas tree. We also had a roast dinner which Matilda insisted needed Christmas hats 🥰. This morning after trimming Bracken's feet Clive made a start on the tree house. Lily made this lovely wreath for Nerja out of false pepper and pine tree twigs. This afternoon I put the rest of the decorations up in the living and dining room.
I love this time of year when we watch the sun com I love this time of year when we watch the sun come over the mountain as we finish doing the horses in the early morning. Before coming up, Clive gave Martin's new office floor a good clean so that it had time to dry ready for Martin to paint and finish off. Poor Carlotta is really unwell with a bad cough and cold. She mostly wanted to be cuddled but rallied a few times to go on the swing and play in the courtyard while grandad fitted an electric boiler for the El Granero cottage. Bless her, she just kept laying down to sleep but her cough makes it so hard for her 😪. when Matilda got back from her gym she decided to strip off and show me her exercises on the pool patio 🤣. It reached 24 in the shade today, the weather is crazy really. While keeping an eye on Carlotta I started to put the Christmas decorations up. It's strange decorating our apartment, things that looked nice in our big kitchen don't look right in the new kitchen. I put some lights up in the grapevine as well. The Málaga Christmas lights were switched on last night, they are as spectacular as ever. We bought some new bottles ready for bottling up this year's oil for guests to buy, I like the squat shape. Marmalade was definitely enjoying the sunshine, cats do have the best life 🥰. We are babysitting tonight while Lily and Martin go to a concert in Málaga. The girls went to bed very well but poor Carlotta was soon crying as she can't breathe with her cold. A grandad cuddle soon sorted her out ❤️
It's been a busy day with not much chance to take It's been a busy day with not much chance to take photos. We drove over to Nerja for Clive to work on the new shower. I do love the scenery as you drive towards Zafarraya. We had lunch on the patio, Carlotta wasn't impressed that she had to sit in her highchair. I tried taking her for a walk to get her to sleep as she was up all night coughing but no luck. The communal pool looked inviting, it's one of the few communal pools that stays open over the winter which is very lucky. I received my first Poinsettia when I got home, it must be nearly Christmas 🥰.
What a beautiful day it has been, a truly good to What a beautiful day it has been, a truly good to be alive day 😍. I decided to take time to smell the roses and took Milly for a walk along the river. Everywhere looks so stunning with the autumn colours against the deep blue sky. We seem to have been surrounded by cloud so we have been very lucky. Lovely to see the gorse in flower too. The girls came down to help with the horses early this morning though Matilda was more interested in pretending to be Fern and trotting around the arena 🥰. I did force myself to be inside for a while to touch up the paint in El Establo - I noticed when I went in there to do something else that the bright sun was showing up some dirty paintwork. This lovely photo of two little girls riding our two gorgeous oldies Capri and Irene popped up today - I do miss them 🥰. #cortijoloslobos #villanuevadeltrabuco #bluesky #autumninspain #goldentrees #gorse #oldhorses #ethicalhorsemanship #mountainviews #mountainholiday

Bonnie's golden chestnut coat blended beautiful wi Bonnie's golden chestnut coat blended beautiful with the autumn leaves on the walnut tree, such a lovely contrast against the deep blue sky. I potted up the winter pansies and Clive made some chilli sauce. Later I looked after the girls, Milly was on guard while they did some drawing. This afternoon Clive and Martin went to the Victoria brewery in Málaga. The tour and talk with beer tasting (5 whole bottles each 😮) was really interesting, they would definitely recommend it and they speak English too! They came home with a few bottles of the Christmas special. While they were there Lily and I took the girls to the playground at the Plaza Mayor shopping centre. Carlotta loved the Landrover and didn't want to get off. She was also fascinated by the water spouts which popped up at random. It was like playing Russian roulette, not knowing if water was going to spout up where she was standing 🤣. The stray dog is still around, no idea when we'll be able to let the chickens out to free range again 😪
