New High Hopes Release

As some of you may be aware, High Hopes have released their new set of stamps and Ila who is part of their DT has some gorgeous blog candy on offer. If for some insane reason you're not interested in winning some HH stamps, I urge you to visit Ila's blog because her work is absolutely stunning.....I love it!! So pop on over and take a look and try your luck!!


Well, we got home from the fete yesterday just in time as it poured with rain! However, the boys enjoyed themselves and thought you might like to see a photo of them with their balloons!!



If you're wondering what Lewis is holding, it's a palm tree with a bear climbing up it!! I didn't realise until I had taken the picture, that there is a photo behind them taken six years ago......do you think they have grown?!!!

Hope your Sunday is a bit drier than mine.....very wet and windy down here!!

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 !!!!!...
