47, 48 & 49:365(+1)

It's been half term this past week and because I ended up not having Alice, I've been out and about a bit and haven't been on my computer as much. So now it's time for a quick catch up for 365(+1).

 On Thursday morning Jon and I had someone come round to write our Wills.  It's something we've been saying we need to do for years but had never got round to.  I feel so much better knowing that this has now been taken care of.
 Friday was my sister Kay's birthday and we were all invited round for afternoon tea at Theresa's (Kay's younger daughter). Alyssa had been asleep when we arrived but when she woke up she was in a lovely mood and wanted to have a cuddle with Nan/Kay.  We had a lovely afternoon just chatting and eating (too much ;o) ) Thanks Theresa and Kay for a delicious spread.
Claire and Alice are finally on the mend (after Alice's virus, Claire came down with a horrible head cold) and this afternoon they came round to spend some time with us.  I love this shot of my 3 girls - daughters Claire and Emily and granddaughter, Alice :o).  Might just end up in a frame somewhere!

So, that's me caught up for now.  I'd also like to say thank you for all the lovely comments about my log cabin quilt (post below).  I've so enjoyed making this quilt and can't wait to have it completed.  Deb (Paper Turtle), I'll send you an email shortly :)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Happy Fathers Day

This morning I popped round to Mum and Dad's to wish Dad a Happy Fathers Day. It was quite funny because as I got to the top of their road, my sister Kay arrived from the other direction :)



 We enjoyed an hour or so chatting with Mum and Dad. Dad got to open his presents and I got to take some photos :)

One of the topics of conversation today was the fact that it's only one week now until Norma arrives for her holiday :)  We're all looking forward to seeing her again.  When tickets are booked it always seems like such a long time until arrival date but this year I don't know where the time has gone because it hasn't felt nearly as long.  Unfortunately, the three weeks she's here will probably go just as quickly but we won't think about that, we'll just enjoy each day as it comes.

I have a few things planned for while she's over. Emily, Norma and I will be going up to Oxford for a couple of days. We're going to go and find a craft shop I haven't been to before (always a good thing) and I know Norma wants to go up to London at some stage too. 

Hopefully all this will give me more things to blog about :)
