Day 29 - 31

Day 29 - the only photo I took today was of this LO I made using the January Gogo kit
Day 30 - Charlotte was messing around with Molly tonging her hair - don't you think she could be a model!!
Day 31 - using a HS:MS prompt, to take a portrait focusing on something other than the face. I must practise this technique!

Days 26-28

Day 26 - why is it, that despite having all weekend to get sorted, Monday mornings are always a big rush to find swimming kits, football kits & do reading! More organisation required!
Day 27 - Snoozing on Dad
Day 28 - Robbie's arrived. We dog sit him for a couple of weeks each time his owner has her chemotherapy and isn't well enough to care for him. He reaps havoc but we love having him!

Days 21 - 25 less 22

Here is Molly wrapped nice and warm. It was pouring down with rain on Wednesday morning, so this is her just before joining the walking bus to school. (21st)
Quite an unflattering photo I know but sepia makes it more palletable!! This is part of my ongoing record of Charlottes orthodontic work - soon to be a mini book! (23rd)
24th Jan, Charlotte was in the Panto - Snow White & The 7 Dwarfs, I can't remeber there being Brownies in that story but there were in this version!
25th - finally got the assignment finished, in plenty of time for Tuesday - bedtime reading anyone?!

Where is 22nd you ask?? Sorry can't share as it's a photo of my class at school!

Days 18-20

Day 18 - I had to pick up this copy of Cardmaking & Papercraft - purely for the gorgeous free stamp set - love those birdies!!
Day 19 - NO, she isn't on the vino collapso, it's apple juice, but we go posh in our house!! LOL!
And I couldn't resist a snap of this because of what it looks like she is drinking!
Day 20 - Oh Eck. The realisation that that assignment has to be in next Tuesday!!

Day 16 & 17

Me & Andrew before going out ON OUR OWN for a meal - one of the kids took this picture! Not Bad!

And Day 17, Andrews birthday cake. Have you ever seen a French Fancy this big!! The candles are a bit of a mish mash, and there definately aren't enough in there to represent every year of his life!

WARNING - GROSS ALERT

OK my first photo, my picture from yesterday isn't gross at all. This is Max making his Promise at Beavers. Bless! There are better photos of the occaision but they include other peoples kids so can't post here.
Todays photo of the day is this horror







Can you believe this is why my shower wasn't working!!! This mouse (yes I know it looks nothing like one now) was stuck half in and half out of a pipe leading from the cold water tank in the roof. Bleuch!!!!!! The shower now works but I may leave it running for a bit before I get in, in the morning and my mouth will be firmly closed!!!!

Secret Santa & Other Stuff


First of all, Mondays 365 photo. We had a great laugh at Rainbows tonight with the parachute!


Sadly I can't claim this photo as my own, but it represents today perfectly. I have signed up & paid for Colour Me Happy, a 1 day workshop with Scrapagogo, in Warrington. 5 classes and a chance to meet my online friends in real life!! I can't tell you how excited I am about this!!
And finally, here are the gorgeous goodies I recieved as part of the Secret Santa Swap that we had as a team of 'Crafty Magpies' on UKS.
it remains a mystery who sent these to me, but all the bits and bobs are totally gorgeous and I now need to find a suitable project to use them!!

Well here we are 12 days in and I am still up todate!! Amazing!
