busy busy busy!!!!!


At the weekend these two little sweeties came to visit!! Dixie and Millie my nieces girls

 Dixie loves animals and adores my rabbits!!!
 Millie is far to grown up to like rabbits and shes likes one direction!!!!



enjoying the park!!!
 off to pick fruit..........it was such a lovely weekend and the weather was glorious...we visited SUZICRAFT and  sue gave them some lovely craft supplies which kept them busy in the evening...
 Beautiful Dixie who's such a character!! shes feisty knows her own mind  adores animals she actually asked me if she could borrow Shush shush  and her hutch for a week  because daddy doesn't want her to have a rabbit!!! and she so wants one and would look after it  every day...i believe she would!!!!
 Millie is  quiet, clever ,sensitive and growing up fast its so funny  because all weekend i called her Emma...her mums name ,she is so like her mum and it brought so many memory's flooding back of amazing times, when me and my two sisters all lived in the same street next door to each other. Our children were in and out of aunties houses every day  poor Millie just ended up answering to her mums name she found it rather funny!!!
 A  visit to the museum......................









 Fruit picking........

 We took  the girls   into the new photography studio to have their pictures taken as Victorian children so sweet!!!
 We ended the weekend having a BBQ  when my lovely niece and her hubby came to collect the girls........



Poor Effie Trinket and naughty sister!!! she thought this was funny!!!
What a lovely weekend we had and me and my sis were absolutely shattered!!I'm so looking forward to the next visit and am hoping  my other amazing great nieces and nephews visit too xxxx love you allxxxx

Ramblings about the last few days, Pookie ears and Pumpkins!

 sorry about the picture quality but my camera is still in the repair shop getting fixed i hope..i don't have much luck with digital cameras this one Ive had four month and the auto focus seems to have broke down!! Give me the old cameras and darkroom any day !!look at the beautiful photos i picked up in my travels!!
 custard the budgie before going to bed!!!
 and Fluffy Mckracken...with his signature huge ears!!! reminds me of  a childhood book i loved Pookie!!! anyone remember that!!!

 I got up to this little beauty or should i say huge!!! i was feeding the Bunny's and had a feeling something was watching me!!!
 My little postage stamp garden at the front of the house hasn't amounted to much this summer though my blue berry bush  had enough fruit to make two pots of jam!! loads of sunflowers and a lot of beautiful sweet peas ...but the back yard has produced some lovely flowers...mind you  Mr and Mrs Effie and Boris naughty naughty rabbits managed to some how escape in the night and polished of a huge pot of marigolds and a tub of mint!!!my other pot of marigolds apparently  made such a comfortable bed over night and were squashed flat!!!

 Ive done loads of cleaning in and out of the house and  am busy decorating the bathroom as well as  holding down two jobs!!!...

 i have missed church three weeks running which is causing problems for me!....but things will be back to normal in the next few weeks!!
 early morning shot of a nice clean shop with Mo in the background........
 what a dull morning it was...........
 but lovely company with a smiley Mo!!
 Mos brief case   and one of his lovely cards......................
 desperate to get my hands on these to alter!!! might treat my self this week my son makes them , hes on create and craft next week selling his wonderful splogeaway products!!!
 a beautiful altered album made by Joan her work is amazing but this camera doesn't  do it justice I'm afraid!!
 By the time  i walked home the sun was blazing!!!
