Happy Mothers Day

The day started early here.  A nice 4 am wake up call thanks to the little man.  Made my own breakfast, it was early.  

As the sun came up the girls finally got out of bed and it was time to open all the lovely goodies for me.  A lovely frame, some lovely pj's for winter as it is getting a little chilly when the sun goes down a wind up mobile phone charger because mine is never charged when I actually use it and Chocolate of course!

I  had a relaxing day then went roller skating with the girls in the afternoon.  It was great as there were only a few skaters at the skating rink.  It's been a long time since I skated but I managed to stay on my feet!  

 I did get one of these beautiful personalised necklaces too (these are not my names) birthdesigns.etsy.com

Bags Bags Bags!

I've been carrying my poor old falling apart bag for a while now, debating on whether I was going to buy one or make my own. I am very happy to have found an Australian Bag designer - Nicole Mallalieu

Looking at her bag pattern range I knew the decision to choose one would be difficult.  I had to decide which pattern would be best suited to my needs.  It's got to be spacious enough to hold my stuff and everyone elses stuff, drink bottles, food, phone, I Pods, toys and Nappies.  I would love to carry a cute little Hobo or Slouch bag but I don't think it will hold all the stuff. 

Appropriately I had to choose the Carry All Pattern

Now my next dilema is my fabric choices.  So many beautiful ones to choose from.  I'll keep you posted on what I decide.

A little Thank You

I love to receive mail and this one that arrived today is quite special so I thought I'd share with you.  I participated in the Dust Team Swap with the lovely Mich and her daughter sent me a wonderful letter for the goodies I sent to her and her sister.  You can visit Mich's Blog to see what I sent them!

Thank you for your letter Latesha, I love butterflies!

Stitches and Craft Show

It was a girls weekend so we went to the craft show that was on.  I was a little disappointed with it but the girls and I managed to stay the whole day.

Our first stop was to pick up the apron I won on the BrisStyle Blog.  We met lovely Louise from Made by Miffy who actually made the apron.  Later in the day we made her No Sew Flowers.

The apron was worn all day at the Craft show and received loads of lovely comments!

It was a nice day to be out with the girls and we got home just in time for dinner.
