Happy Church Anniversry!!

Today is the anniv of our church ministry!!

We had a fabby day, a wonderful service and then a meal in the church and then a brill evening service. So good am on a HG High!! LOL

We're all due to go to the park tomo for a bbq, should be great if rain stays away.

Thinking alot about my church life and God has really been working things out for me. I just want him to use me more and now I must make myself available to him

Singing on Praise and Worship has really opened up my vocals and has helped me to stop hiding behind others and away from the mic. Today I could really hear myself and instead of shying away I just sang out all the more. I want to increase my singing abilities and really want God to annoint me and I want to excell more.

Singing in the Choir has also helped alot and I love it. I pray that God will continue to use me to minster to others and to minister to me too!!

I have started again with the devotions for the choir whic I had dropped off for a while.

God Is Good!!!!

Sniffles

Poor Jayz has the terrible sniffles. started in his nose but now his poor little chest sounds all wheezy bless him.

He's Lying on Daddy right now and I can hear his breathing all foggy. Daddy is supposed to be watching tv but is snoozzing, I can see his head bobbing and he keeps waking uo and peering at the tv LOL.

Might tell him to go up to bed the poppet.

I haven't played the sims for absolutely ages, they must think I've given up on them.

Got a few things that I need to do project wise. I have a special 8x8 page, a cj and a doll cj. I also must finish my last coaster for the altered coaster swap.
oh and I have to finish of the little mini book to go in a tin I made for my mentee at church.

will do most of that tomo, no energy right now. got some erands to do in morn whilst hubby is at home then I'll get as much crafting done that I can get when the two boys let me!! Kali STILL in Florida I miss him teribly(so teribly cant even spell it right)

hmmm hubby's called it a day and gone to bed, he kindly took the two boys with him.

right gonna check emails and a few things on here then I'm off to rest.... ahhh just remembered the apprentice Martha stewart is on!! bahhhhh..... will have to watch it at 3now..... another late one I think.

New week!!

SOoooooo. This is a new week and I'll be honked if it's gonna like last week.

I'm gonna make an effort to have a better week. Dont know how but I will!

Let some people down last week with a project but am gonna get up to date with everything and make a new pact with myself to become more organised and to get all my bits together.

PND will no longer lead my life!!

Peek-a-Blocks

Wonderful invention, who would have thought a plastic cube with things inside them could be soooo great? Fisher Price did thats for sure!! Went made on these when Jayz was a baby and now baba plays with them too. He absolutely loves them and the good thing is they're still fun to jayz too and they can play with them together.

I know what my going back to work pressie will be for them, now just have to choose which set I'll get..... bigger toy box is needed LOL!!

Oh and did I forget to mention I think they're pretty fab too?? ;o)

slidomania!!

Just adding a slidey thingy...... let's see if it works.

Missing You

My sweet big boy is waaaaayyyy accross the world in Florida having a grand old time. He's gone to DisneyWorld and is loving it. I am sooooo missing him it's untrue. His nan nan(paternal) has taken him and they called this morning(friday) he sounded so grown up and had lots to tell me even tho he only went on tuesday.

I had to make my voice perky so he didn't ask me if I was missing him. Baba is missing him too, he's all grizzly and whenever I mention Kali he looks around for him, bless his cotton socks.

Jayz is missing him too, keeps asking for him and saying "kalkal gone on aeyoplane" and then " I wanna go on aeyoplane too" so sweet.

Ah well he'll be home sooner than I kno it and will be full of tales to keep me entertained.

Golly!!....

What a day we've had!! Kali had to be collected from school early today as he's poorly. The other two decided today would be the day to be clingy and baba not settling all day, so no naps or sleeps for him.... which meant no downtime for me either!!

Hubby standing over my shoulder to come on pc, despite me asking him 5mins ago if he wanted to come on... to which he said no!! And he say's I'm indecisive LOL.

Ducky!!

What fun we had feeding the ducks today! I dont know who had more fun me or the kiddies!! even hubster enjoyed it. The two baba's swiped lots of the bread for themselves LOL!!

I really want to do more park visits with the boys. Kali (will have to stop calling him that soon!!) is 8 now and the time has flown by.

I want them to look back at the childhood with great happiness. They're so important to me and I want to become a better mother for them and make sure they get the start in life they deserve.

HIYA!!!!

Been away for sooooo long, been busy and nt blogging!!

Had a lovely w/e very sunny and had good friend's, daughter's christening to go to on Sunday. Hubby was God Father and you should see his grin. so excited!! Bless him. He really loves the little marshmallow as I call her. She is so sweet and such a contented baby.
It really is funny the way baby girls are soooo diferent to boys.

got a cj to send of tomoro, a paper doll one so exciting, feel like a kiddie again. Am in a few cj's at mo. will post pics of a few when i finish feeding baba.

What a week

Been trying to catch up with all my scrap deadlines. Done most of them just got a few more.
Unfortunetly I failed to enter my April submision in time for a contest so am out of that now :o( gutted!! esp as I stayed up all night to do it. No one to blame but myself tho so onward and upward hee hee.

I decided to submit for a mag afterall, dont think it's been picked tho as emails were due to go out friday and I've not heard anything, really liked the LO too, was of lovely Buba, I used the papers from the Baby Page Kit Swap I hosted on UKS and think it's one of my fave LO's.
I used a 10x8 photo fo the first time and Loved it. Will be doing more of those methinks!


Last weeks cybercrop, or was it week before?? was great fun although I didn't get to do as much as I wanted.

I did manage to do (queen) Carolines class, I used my own papers and Prima's.

Great class, I really enjoyed decorating the paint can and will be doing more.












House is awffully quiet, Hubby went to setle ds2 and I think he's fallen asleep LOLOLOL

Tag Swaps on their way!!

Look at all these envelopes!! Just waiting to get to their owners.

They're now in the hands of RM, look out for the postie girls :o)

Easter Cake!!

Sooo like me to forget to upload this!! Made an easter cake for my friend and the whole house was full with the smell of choc... yummm!!

I am desperately trying to give up the stuff but am failing!

Think I'll set myself a challenge, starting next week. For each day I dont eat any I'll put 50p in a jar. If I do eat some i gotta take 50p out. Then when it get's to £7 i can trade it into bank and buy some yummmi primas!!

To Submit or not to submit.....

.... have been thinking of submitting work to mags for a while, the thing is I have little confidence in my work. Even if others say it's nice I still wonder if they're just being nice.

I did set a goal that i'd be published this year and I suppose if I dont submit, I wont be published!!

hmmmmmm...... I have one deadline for tomo so if I decide to do something I'll send it off, you never know :0)

New Member to my Prima Family......

Soooooo...... I couldn't resist the pretty bottle of prima's calling me from their shelf!!

I was in lakeland limited today and moments after i stepped in , the lights went out!! there were a few small lights on but the main ones were out. The tills were still working, so not to be dettered, i carried ds2 and his buggy up the stairs to have a look at the craft bits. I looked around and saw a few "must-haves" put them in buggy hood and turned around..... there glistening in the dark were a row of primas!! all the same as LL sell only one type and despite the fact that i had said from home that i wouldn't get that bottle as i had those types of colours , the glistening dragged me over and all to soon, the bottle was in my hand!
The cold hard glass felt so at home in my hand and when i looked at the bottle i saw that there were diff sizes in there.... well I just had to then didn't I??
In it went into the buggy hood!! By now it was getting full, so i transfered the goodies into the trolley dh had got.... not for me to fill up I may add, but rather for ds3 to have a ride in LOL!!

Well here's a pic of our newest addition to my prima fam. I'll take a more personal one at a later date :o)

Easter Musings!!

I have been swept away with my feelings towards Christ this Easter. I watched the passion of the Christ and it blew me away. Of course I knew before of the pain and suffering Jesus went through but I really was touched by the film.

I am sooooo thankful that Jesus died for me and my sins.... many sins at that!!

Thank you Lord xxx

Post Office adventure!

Trust me to forget to write up the cert. of posting forms before I got to the p/o!! I got there 7mins before they closed and all was going well, not a queue whatsoever!! Paid for a jiffy bag to send an easter package and went to give my baby page packages out only to realise i didn't do it at home! Not only that but the certs they had only had space for 3 names, unlike the ones I have at home that carries on at the back.
Soooo went about filling in all the addresses. of course i had to take all the packages out of the bags to see the addy's LOL.
The poor loves locked the doors and the cleaner started cleaning and there I am writting down the addy's as fast as my pen could write.
Well..... i'll remember for the tag swaps when it comes to send them off, i've even got some certs here, think i'll fill them in in advance just so 'm ready.

Swaps all packed up.....

.... and ready to go!!

P/O shuts early on a thurs!! bah........
