Lucky Me!

No card to show today and a quick posting as Vanessa and her family are coming to visit today, however, Amanda tagged me a couple of days ago and thought I would join in. Basically, you have to go into your Pictures file and pick the 6th folder and then the 6th photo and this is mine.




It's my big boy Sam making a chocolate cake - this was taken last year sometime - he just loves baking (as does Lewis!) and in fact, Lewis was in the kitchen yesterday with his Dad making Drop Scones (although couldn't get over how quickly they whizzed through the recipe, must have been in a hurry to go somewhere pmsl!) - his own recipe! Delicious!!

Now have to tag six people - I know alot of you have already done this so please feel free to not take part if you have already done so. My choice is Vanessa (ha! ha!), Jilli, Jackie, Denise, Erin and Jose.

I would also like to show a beautiful card I received from Celine - she sent me some Whiff of Joy images as I only own three so thank you so much Celine, your card is gorgeous!



I've also received two awards from the lovely Sarah - thank you so much they really are appreciated and it's so nice of you to think of me.





And last, but certainly not least, Dawny P has some scrummy blog candy up for grabs. If for some insane reason you don't want to enter for the candy, then you should still pay her a visit as not only is she a very talented lady who makes beautiful cards but she has me in stitches (which is not an easy thing at the moment lol!). She is so naturally funny and ALWAYS brings a smile to my face. Well worth a look!

Off to get ready now to see my buddy for plenty of chatter and gossip!!

Thanks for the tag Jo! Love the pic you posted, too cute. I just got this tag last week and my pic was a boring old photo of a box I made. Hope you're having a good weekend. Talk soon. Hugs! :)

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 !!!!!
