School days

Well, Grace has been at school for a week now, she still doesn't seem big enough!!! But she loves it, she has had such a lot of fun and is enjoying doing her homework every night.
Doesn't she look so lovely in her uniform, it certainly brought some tears to my eyes last Thursday.

School Tomorrow

Well, the long six week holiday will be at an end tomorrow, William goes back tomorrow morning and gracie starts on Thursday, my baby, starting school, it just doesn't seem possible. She is so excited and can't wait, I am much more apprehensive about it!!!
Its a gorgeous day today, lots of sunshine, hopefully my tomatos will start to turn red now, I hope so, I want to try some. On thursday we went to the Museum of Science and Industry in manchester for the day, it was brilliant, any one who lives near enough to go should, its a full and free day out for the whole family. On the way home we scrumped some blackberries on the lane and I managed to make 2 jars of blackberry and apple jam and 2 blackberry and apple pies from the ones we got, and they taste gorgeous, even if i do say so myself.

Another day

Morning, I have been such a lazy bint this morning, I have only been up an hour, shocking!!! Luckily I put my project on the IACW blog last night just after midnight, so at least that was done. I have done a craft mini pinny this time, a good way to recycle those old jeans that are pooped!!!

Pop over and have a look at the other pics too.

Well, just having a lazy day today, tomorrow we are off to the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester with the kids, so hopefully will get some good pics while we are there.

Holiday Sickness

Oh well, we were supposed to be off to my sisters today but, both the kids have toncillitis and I think Gracie has conjunctivitis too, so no holiday away for us this year.

I have been very busy planning for Christmas, I know its still August, but there are less than 130 days to go now (not that I am counting) I have my planner file up to date, most gifts bought and the cards all made along with a few decorations, I love Christmas, can you tell???

I have my project ready for Wednesday on the Creative World blog too, not taken a picture yet so no sneaky peak this time, you will have to wait and go to the blog on Wednesday!!! (mean, me, never lol)

Right, bye for now, have poorly kids to dose up xxx

The kids have been having fun and enjoying the sunshine, until yesterday when the rain started again. I have got all their school uniform and stuff reafy apart from the shoes and pumps, they can wait til next week I think.

Sneaky peak

Here is a sneaky peak of my project on the Creative World blog on Wednesday, don't forget to pop along and have a look.

Now my lovely friend Jo has nagged me that I am not updating enough!!!!! so I must try to remember to update as often as poss.

I have done it again!!!

I keep forgetting to update the blog, not very good really!!!

well I have a new baby, its name is snuggles and we still don't know if its a boy or girl, but its the cutest baby bunny, the kids love it, but I do all the work.

Have been really busy doing jewellery (sorry no pics at the mo), Avon, Brownies and the Creative World Blog and it looks like I may have a job in September, it will be relief at first but I am going to be a dinner lady (or midday supervisor as they are now known) at G's old nursery, which is brilliant as it will fit in with the kids and with Martins shifts too.

I am back on the Creative World blog this saturday doing something fun with beads, so please pop over and have a look.

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.
