Zoom - where did week one go ???


Isn't this pretty? my lovely colleague bought it for me at the end of term.

I also received a little gift and some lovely cards from the Head Teacher - bless!!

I said thanks and he said well thank you for your dedication and hard work - how nice is that?

I told him I love my job and to be honest getting paid as well, is the icing on the cake :)

The good news is, my 6 month trial period is up and I'm now a permanent member of staff - yay !!

Anyhoo, what have we been up to?

 Well we made an I'm Bored jar - idea nicked from lovely Taz. 

However, we haven't been at home most of the week and time is zooming by.

I'm loving spending lots of time with my lovely boy.

We are certainly cramming a lot in.

We've been up at the lottie painting our new (to us, donated by our kind neighbours)shed.

We went to our very first car boot sale - Twiglet will do a post about this later. 

We had a budget of £5 each to spend, I spent nothing, Twiglet spent £14 !!!

We had a couple of days over at my lovely Mums - we will be spending a lot of time over there during the hols!!

Played in the garden, played in the paddling pool, had a trip to Whitley Locks, went to Selby for lunch!!

Visited Cannon Hall yesterday and watched the sheep racing :) phew it was hot.

We've been swimming today as Twiglet started swimming lessons on Monday and we need to practice.  

We've also fitted in some more lottie and a Yoda puppet - I will show you our fab Star Wars craft book next time.

The boys are going to have a Lego fest this evening while I wash up.

Twiglet and I are meeting up with my old schoolfriend tomorrow for breakfast and a bit of shopping and sightseeing.

Phew - We need to go back to school for a rest.

Righto the oven has just binged, so I'm off to dish up the apple crumble I chucked together !!

Catch you later.

    Bored! There's no chance of that with your itinerary! Your Mum does look lovely, just like you do in your photo. Glad to hear you have been made a permanent member of staff too. Happy holidays! x

Well I"ve finally taken the plunge...................

After drooling over many blogs for months now I've decided to finally take the plunge, so here is my new dawn.
Hence the beautiful sunrise above as photographed by Mr Twiggy through our bedroom window. (I'm sure I'll be including a lot of his pics, hope he doesn't expect commision).

I love crafting and have ever since I was a little girl and spent hours playing with my mums button tin (which I've inherited) and amused my self by making dresses for my dollies - even though I'd cut their hair and given them green felt tip highlights. Punk Tiny Tears - I should have marketed this idea !!

Hope you enjoy my work as much as I've enjoyed others who are a daily inspiration to me.

I hope to share favourite blogs, books and anything and everything with you, so enough off my blithering on and watch this space...............................................
