Let the story begin

Right, the children are in bed , dishes are done , lunches packed, I have a cup of tea, pack of choc iced gems and halloween haribos ( dont tell the little people). My yankee candle 'be thankful ' cake is burning -I think it may be my new favourite smell  and I am not sewing as I  have strained my hand slightly from so much sewing and pressing 'confirm payment' on paypal .
Despite the postal shenanigans there was a little flurry of excitement in my house this morning when the postie delivered a few little parcels

The first was this


and oh how lovely he is I will definitely be ordering more for the little people in my family - he comes in a box with a badge and mini postcard. you can find his friends here.

The second little parcel contained


one of these. I know he is supposed to be for christmas but he is up already- too cute to pack away until December. You can find him here

I am awaiting the arrival of this little chappie



I chose pink and red and once again I dont think I will be able to wait until December to show him off. If you like the look of him and his chums have a peep here.

Enough spending !!!! but I have seen this and I am dreaming about it , its so pretty , I simply have to have it


you can look at it here  but dont buy it, it's mine !!!!!
wow 2 posts in one day !!! love SaRaH X

                                                        

busy , busy , busy !!!

Half term has come and gone , we did a bit of this,
                         

Happy birthday !!!!




and all enjoyed .

thankfully weather was dry so we could do this



                                    ( there was actually no need for glasses there was no sun but little G was insistent in
order for him to spot the monsters in the woods .)


                      By the end of the week we all looked like this ,









This is what happens to my children after spending a week with me !!!!!!

In between all this i have managed to make this - his name is Bob !!!
