Half term report

Well what have we been up to

Well its official I have now not bitten my nails for a whole week, now I know to some people its a disgusting habit and I totally agree but its something I have done since i was a child and i do it without even thinking, but I am trying to stop and believe you me it takes all my will power not to bite them.

We have been helping my mum and dad move house which has been a little sad as its the old family home they have moved from but its for the best as this is into sheltered accommodation and is going to be much better for them in the future but they have been in the same house for the last 42 years and it has taken some moving lol.

Went up to the lakes on Friday to see some good friends and see how there new house is coming on and on the way we stopped at a sandwich shop called the Square in Milnthorpe which belongs to a friend H off Carolyns Craft Forum is and we had the most fantastic breakfast rolls yum yum.

Saturday was Ikea day and we went spending my mums money for the new house lol
Today we are off to church then back into routine of uniforms and homework lol ready for school although Rebekah not back till Tuesday and Sam Wednesday. Poor Neesa back on Monday.
Been thinking of Neesa and Sam a lot this weekend whilst they are visiting their mum.
Well that's all for now folks Rebekah just altering a plain pencil case so will add photographs later.

Half term madness at the football

Happy Stampers

Well today I have been to Port Sunlight to the North West Happy Stampers Craft Fayre. Its just amazing and gets me every time. So many different things to see and do.
Today we watched the fantastic Barbara Santerelli with her Clarity Stamps and she was brilliant as usual and Rebekah my eight year old was very lucky to get one of the Christmas Trees she was demoing how to do.
We also watched a lady who made fantastic triangular boxes which you can hang on your Christmas tree ( which i have thought are a fantastic thing for the cubs to make at Christmas)
Someone showed us how to do marbling with chalks and water ( again easy and fab for the cubs to do)
It was a really fantastic day made better by meeting up with our friends June and Lynn off Stamping Mad.
Just one last thing remember my Disney LO that i entered into a comp on Bumbelberry Crafts Forum ? Well .............................. Rachels daughter has chosen mine as a winner and so I recieve a small goodie bag off the wonderful Rachel aka Turtletress

My little girl is now a cub !!!!!!!!!

Oh my what a change in circumstances my little girl has just been invested as a cub scout. She has waited for ages for this day as she has always wanted to be a cub.
I am so proud of her she remembered her promise word for word and stood so proud as our group scout leader invested her, along with two other cubs who had come up from Beavers.

As for me , counting down to October half term now lol ........................................................................
How long left ????
