Blog Candy Winner!

Well the drawing of the Blog Candy winner went really smoothly.....no arguing between the boys! It was decided that it was Sam's turn to pick the winner, so Lewis held the pot.

And the winner is.............FRAN! Well done Fran! I have your address so I'll get the candy packed up and post it off to you.

Thank you so much to everyone who took part....all the cards were fabulous :)

Off to tidy up the kitchen and then I think I'll have an early night.....I'm absolutely shattered....I know, I know...at my age I need to take things easy! Plan on catching up on my blogging tomorrow and maybe make a few cards before Tony gets home. Awaiting confirmation of his flight details but it looks like he's leaving Australia on Sunday and will be in the UK on Monday!!!
Sorry I haven't been around many blogs lately but I hope you understand I've had alot to sort out in the last week, especially with trying to hide my stash!! Will be paying you a visit tomorrow!

Glad you had a great birthday.
Your boys are extremely talented do they take after Dad Lol.
I find in the ironing cupboard a good place to hide stash.
Look forward to seeing more of your blogs.

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 !!!!!...

ONLY JOKING
