Time Flies

Goodness me, its ages since I have posted, well had a lovely time with my dad, although he was a bit poorly while he was here, I think it was the change in water and stuff and the weather was pants too, got a lovely pic of him and Grace together.













It was my turn on the Creative World blog on Saturday, I made a tooth fairy wall hanging using an Idea from Somerset Studio magazine, I also made a similar one for my friend http://jo-again.blogspot.com/ when she had her daughter Jessica in April.

Daddy is on his way

My dad visits today, he is staying with us until Friday evening then going back to Sara's until they go home to France next week, to say I am excited is an understatement, I haven't seen him in 18 months and the kids haven't seen him in 2 years. The last time I was over and saw him was when he was seriously ill in hospital with Leptospirosis (sp) he is now much better and it will be lovely to see him back himself again.

My Turn on The Blog

Well, today is my turn on the http://www.itsacreativeworld.blogspot.com/ blog, I have done a canvas shopping bag, the main reason behind me doing it was recycling and being environmentally friendly, my Sister started me off a few months ago by buying me a little bag for my shopping, and my collection has now grown, I use them every time I go out now and don't have bags from any shops any more. Also, I don't know about everyone but I used to keep plastic shopping bags!!! WHY????? I don't know, but the plastic bag mountain has now gone and won't be coming back to this house.

Its A Creative World

Have you popped into http://www.itsacreativeworld.blogspot.com/ today, Maria has done a fantastic feature on turning your shed into a playhouse for the kids and or using it as a fab place to craft, I think we will be buying a nice little shed especially for me soon, it would be lovely not to have to craft on the dining room table any more.



I took this pic of G today in her floppy sun hat, its the first one in ages, she is starting to lose her babyness now and grow up, she starts at big school in September, I can't believe it, my baby off to school soon.
