Time flys....


Michael is nearly 1... and Im nearly, well that would be telling! Gareth is 30 next week. I cannot fathom how we suddenly got to the end of February.

Am keeping busy making stuff for the local donkey sanctuary Spring fair. I have a box of things made so far. Lots of cross stitch and crochet brooches. I just hope it all raises lots of funds for them.

Jenni moves to her new shiny house this week, no more damp and cold for her and Michael. At last she can make this house into a home. Looking forward to seeing all her pictures on the walls. If I can actually find anywhere near to get a ball of white wool I can finish the throw I made for the boys bed.
Here he is on the rocking horse I got him for Xmas, I just added a leather saddle and reins! Not bad for 8.00 pounds.

What have I been upto....Looking after little man and loving it!

Amy's blanket for Baby L

Made the flowery blanket this week for Amy's new baby, am really pleased that I finished it before I had to pack the house up ready for the builders.

Our short but sweet holiday

Had a great few days around Newcastle and I finally got to visit the Angel of the North. Went to 3 different lighthouses and met some lovely people. Newcastle is the friendliest, cleanest place I have ever been to.
