Lovely Weekend!!!

We did have a lovely day on Saturday at the wedding of my friend Sam and her now husband Paul. Doesn't she look stunning!!!???

The reception was really lovely and the boys had a fantastic time as did us all!! It really was a day to remember and I am sure we will for a long time to come.

The setting for the occassion was really fantastic. It took place at a Jacobian house five mile from us. Sam and Paul had the use of it from the Friday to the Sunday for themselves and their family and friends.

Sunday was also busy as Harry had a grading exam for Tae Kwon Do. He did well with all of his questions and his practical went really well. Infact tonight we found out that he passed his grading!!!!! So he is now the proud owner of a green tag belt! Needless to say we are very proud of him!

Well tomorrow morning I am taking part in a new class which Traci is organising. So am looking forward to a morning of craft!!! xxxxx

Just wanted to say....

A friend of mine who is one of the most genuine people I know has had some bad news today.

I am not going to say her name as she will know who she is but I just want her to know that the four of us are thinking of her and her family. The boys and I send all our love to her and if you want anything you know where I am xxxxxxx

Yipee I made two and a half cards.....

yesterday. Yes that is right I did some crafting!!! Hurrah!!!!!!

Unfortunately the cards I made are for someone's birthday and I know they look at my blog so no sneaky peaks I am afraid. :(

Today I am getting ready for the wedding tomorrow. Spare room is being set up for ma and pa as they are coming down the M6 sometime this afternoon. My eyebrows have been waxed so I no longer look as if I have two furry friends above my eyes and I am going for a haircut tonight. So all in all I am being fairly organised - well sort of!

Harry has gone back to school today, which although I am pleased about he is not 100%. So I am fretting a little bit about him. I am not usually so neurotic but his attack on Monday really unnerved me. He will be fine I am sure and is probably very happy not having me checking on him every ten minutes! LOL!

As well as the wedding tomorrow Harry has a grading on Sunday for Tae Kwon Doe so we have a very very busy weekend ahead of us. I think we will all need Monday to recover from it.

Right I have to sort some bedding out and find a temporary home for the hamster. I hope everyone has a fab weekend - lets just hope for NO rain tomorrow! xxxxx

He does make us smile!

Why he chose a pair of work goggles I don't know and where he found them was a bigger mistery!
But when I saw this - well of course I had to take a piccie. You have to don't you?

Harry is still off school today but is much better since Monday. Hopefully he will be at school tomorrow so at least he can get back into the swing of things. He still sounds like he has smoked a huge packet of Havana's though which is not that pleasant to listen to.

We have a wedding to attend on Saturday so 1) Harry has got to be fit for that and 2) we are really hoping for nice weather for at least two hours. If it does rain I may let George wear these goggles as part of his wet weather gear :)

So did I do any crafting yesterday.......? Ermmmmmm well I went to see Traci, who had a visitor in the shape of Maggie. I did drink tea and I did spend some money......but no crafting was done. Seriously today is going to be the day I make at least one card or I shall go crazy. I have loads of birthdays in July so I need to get my skates on.

First on my list though this money is to get George to school and then change the beds. Bleurgh housework!!!!!

Update on my boy.

I know this post isn't crafty at all but wanted to say that Harry is feeling abit better this morning.

His peak flow is still lower than it should be but it is creeping up steadily so that is good. Hopefully we can get him back to school in the next few days as I think I am getting on his nerves :)

No crafting has been going on over the last few days as I have been shattered but I am hoping to go and see Traci. So maybe a couple of purchases and some crafting will be on the cards. Then again we normally just drink tea and chat!!!!

Quick post - she did it!!!!

She went pink!!!!!

Remember a few weeks ago I told you about Traci dyeing her hair pink to raise money for Cancer Research?

Well the girl did it - boy did she do it!

She looks fabbo - I lurve this look and isn't the piccie fab!?

Well done Traci - one cool lady! x

Busy weekend and one poorly boy!

Crikey we have not stopped this weekend. We have been dashing here and there, dodging thunder storms and rain.
The boys have had cricket tournaments and parties to get to and we have been organising ourselves for a wedding this weekend.
Before we knew it it was Sunday evening and boy were we shattered!!!!!!

This morning started off ok. I was recovering from a migraine but was alright and getting the kids sorted for school. Harry and George went off to school as usual - Harry with his inhalers today as he had a cough which wasn't serious but nevertheless was there.

Anyway home time came and Harry came home sounding truly awful. He was wheezing and despite having his inhalers was struggling to breath. In the end he was rushed down to our docs who put him on the nebuliser straight away and has prescribed a course of steroids.
It is such a shame he has had this attack as we have had his asthma under control for quite a while now and infact we were getting confident that he may be growing out of it. However I now think that because we thought he may grow out of it we had become a little complacent about it all so we have all had a jolt this evening.
So it looks like I have got some company at home for the next few days until his peak flow comes back up again!

I have posted a card I made last week - I actually made six last week. Yes six cards LOl!!!!!
I really do need to get more crafting time sorted out! xxxxx
