Happy Christmas

This will be my last posting before Christmas and maybe for the year, so if I do not post again, Happy New Year to you all - see you in 2010.

I am making this my last posting as I:

1. Still have all my Christmas wrapping to do
2. House needs a good tidy
3. I am full of cold - I shouldnt really be shocked, I always get a cold just before the festive season - a good excuse to have a nice glass of Christmas Port

Just before the wintery weather arrived, I took a photo of my lovely tree in my garden.  I have no idea what sort of tree it is, but is seems to blossom every December - yeah you heard right - blossom.  The photo looks like it has been taken in the Spring, but was only taken a week ago.

The wintery weather is still with us, the snow in my garden is still here due to the freezing conditions.  I will leave you with a photo I took of my little bird house which hangs in my wonderful blossom tree.

Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

See you in 2010

Snow Snow Everywhere

Two postings in one day, I really am on the ball.
Kids wanted to make the first snowman of the holidays on Friday, but hence the weather was just too cold for Charlie, so he watched me and Henrietta from the comfort of the lounge window (cant say I blame him).  The snow wasnt the kind that stuck, so our snowman was smaller than we would have liked - but cute all the same.

Hope you are all enjoying the wonderful Christmas snowy weather.

Hello Again

I'm here, at long last.  Sorry for those who have been following my blog.  I have been rubbish at updating it, and didnt realise how long it was since my last post - sorry sorry sorry.

Henrietta's 7th Birthday Party was brilliant, all the girls had the best time ever.  It was a hair and make-up party, thank you Vicky for making the party so successful.

Here's Henrietta with her hair done - such a sweetie

Bonfire Night - Birthday Girl

Oh my, Henrietta is 7 today.  It doesnt seem 2 minutes since I brought her home from the hospital.  She is having a party at home on Saturday.  Being a 'crafty' mum I made her banner and some beautful butterflies to hang from the ceiling - sorry about the out of focus pics!

Happy Birthday Gorgeous Girlie

Open For Business

My Etsy shop is now OPEN.  After nearly 2 weeks I have finally finished my painting.  Well nearly - the lounge window needs a coat of paint, but I do not need the scaffolding for this little job, so this can be done anytime.  I will be glad to get back to my sewing box and pile of felt - I have so many ideas, but may have left them alittle too late for Christmas - we will have to see how fast I can sew.

Anyone wanting wholesale orders/prices, please let me know.

Light-End-Tunnel

Finally I can see it - the light at the end of the tunnel.  Phew! its been a long hard slog.  My Etsy shop has been closed way longer than I ever thought, but I am hoping , fingers crossed it will be re-opened tomorrow.

Due to the rather nasty weather we have been having in the UK, painting has had to be put on hold.  I now only have the porch to paint though and I am done - thank goodness for that.

This by the way is not my porch, but oh how I would love it if it was - a lottery win would indeed be spent on a porch just like this - my dream

Photo Shoot

My kids had a professional photo shoot during the school holidays, here are a few of the gorgeous photographs Karen took - thank you Karen, you are quite simply brilliant at what you do (Black-Sheep Photography - Yorkshire).
