What a Great Easter!

Back again! Had some good news a couple of days' ago.....I've been featured on the Inspirational blog! My good friend Jose put my card forward so thanks very much Jose :) It's definitely worth having a look at the blog because there are some wonderful creations there.

Also wanted to share some of the Easter cards and gifts we've received.

This is the card I received from Jose and also two folders she made for the boys with some money in them......they were well impressed!


Next is a card I received from my SBS-13 Sister, Vanessa:


Then, we received a package yesterday from the States. This was from my good friend Denise and her family. Unfortunately I wasn't able to photograph all the contents because she included colouring books, crayons, stickers and toys which the boys grabbed from me straight away! I managed to photograph the cards we all received and the scrummy chocolate!



Now to the boys! This is Sam's card he made for me and his Easter chick he made at school!


And last but definitely not least are the cards from Lewis. The first one is the one he did at school ..... I've taken a picture of the inside because he drew that himself. The second card is one he made from his own craft stuff at home.






Hope you enjoyed these....I certainly did! Will be back soon with some of my cards.

My Surprise For Tony!!

As promised, I'm back to let you in on my surprise for Tony tomorrow! Don't know where to start with this but maybe a little personal history first. When I married Tony in 1996 I was a UK size 14. I've always had to watch my weight and never been naturally thin but was never vastly overweight either. In March 1997 I fell pregnant with Lewis and that's when the trouble started.....the weight piled on and after he was born as well because I wasn't eating properly and just grabbing food out of the fridge when I had a spare five minutes.....oh, the joys of being a new Mum! Then I got pregnant again with Sam and even though I didn't gain much more weight during pregnancy, I made up for it afterwards! Am I boring you yet! It took me ten years and many failed diets to finally get serious about losing weight so I started my diet in January this year and this is the evidence....... please do not show the first photo to small children or animals as it may scare them !!!!!
