Back To School!

It's the first day of term......yippee!! and wanted to share a photo of my two handsome boys in their new uniforms. Lewis is starting Senior School today - such a big step for him - and Sam, my baby, starts at Junior School. Funny enough, it was Sam who was really nervous, Lewis was just worried about the homework!! Anyway, Daddy was here when they woke up this morning and it was great to have some support in re-assuring them (and to lace up the football boots lol!)



It's my day off today so now Tony has gone back to work, I'm not sure what to do with myself! Did all my housework yesterday so I'm twiddling my thumbs a bit. Did stamp out a couple of images earlier but to be honest, I can't wait for my two babies to come home and tell me all about it - how sad am I! I'm sure all those of you who have kids know exactly what I mean!

Hope to be back soon with a couple of cards but not today!!

Oh Jo, they are so handsome! You must be very proud. It's so sad too, seeing them go off to school again for another year. Connor started last week too and I miss him all day, we count the minutes until we can pick him up again! Big hugs, hun! Thinking of you! :)

What a lovely photo, know how you felt today, my daughter started Uni, only local, goodness knows what I would have been like if she had moved away! I could have had a bigger craft room tho I guess ;-)
Had to do photos in relays as they all went off at different times, oldest son was scowling and youngest son has deleted his photo before I had chance to put it on the computer.....
Glad to hear things are looking up for you, you deserve some good luck.
Take care

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 !!!!!...
