Belle of the Ball



Our weekend has been hectic so far and will probably carry on being hectic lol. It really started on Thursday ( not the weekend but the start of our plans lol) when Neesa my step daughter attended her prom so we spent all of Thursday Tea time getting her sorted.


Neesa looked absolutely beautiful and I wanted to show you all.( blogger playing up so will add some more later)

Today has been my Hubby's Birthday and we have been to the Trafford Centre where my daughter Rebekah who is 8 on Monday went to the build a bear factory as a birthday treat. Tomorrow we are off to the Mexican where Rebekah is having her Birthday Party so I think by Monday I will be going back to work for a rest.

My Friend has had her baby !!!



What brilliant news today my dear friend who moved back up to the lake district a month or so ago has given birth this morning at 7.00am. Jack William weighed in at 6.5lbs. Mother and Baby both doing well.
Got to admit it I cried when they rang as I do miss them all so much now they have moved away.


What else have we done today well we went to Cuerden Park http://www.cuerdenvalleypark.org.uk/ which was really good Rebekah made a bird box, twig pencil had a go at paint balling, played on some of the children's rides and had a good walk around.

Tomorrow we are hoping to go and visit Baby Jack I will try and put a picture of the cards me and Rebekah have made for the new parents.

Weekend happenings

Well this weekend has been fairly quiet compared with the last few I have had lol. Saturday was taken up with a cub Competition at Bowley where our cubs finished 4th so we were happy with that they had to try their hands at fire lighting , putting tents up , pioneering and lots of other scouting skills and they all enjoyed it.

Today we have been out for a walk with my friend from work with the dogs and Steve has been trying out his new toy ( camera so I will add some of his pics for a quick look for you)


Back to work tomorrow so better get off here and some work done lol







Sam and Rebekah make a fire.

School Trip

Well this week has been taken up with our school trip as you may be aware I work in a local Nursery School and we have 100 children which equals two trips with 50 each session.
This year we went here
http://www.smithillsopenfarm.co.uk/Home-s.html and it was fantastic.
We went into pets corner first were we fed the lambs and cuddled guinea pigs chicks and rabbits and also stroked 2 day old goats and an 8 foot long snake. Then we went on donkey rides and then fed the goats and the Llamas. Had our lunch although the children wanted that as soon as we got there. Then off to see the cows being milked and feed the calves. Lastly before back to Nursery we had a tractor ride and fed the donkeys and the horses.
The children loved it and so did I and just wanted to share it with you.

Tonight we have been to the Summer fayre at Rebekah's school were she dressed as a alien and won a pass to the local swimming center for some free swims so she is happy.
