Make a Smilebox slideshow

Little chef

I had a very good little helper today in the kitchen,Daniel really loved to help me cook and I must say he helped me make the perfect roasts.

There were not many carrots left by the time they went in the pan though!!!

Hats and more hats

Hmmm what hat do you think looks best!!!!!

Check out my Slide Show!

Diamonds are forever

Megan had lots of well wishes and congratulation presents and cards for her fantastic resuts in her sats but was never more pleased than the new ear piercing and so long as she doesnt ask for a belly or nose piercing next exams then we are all happy

Last day of school

Megan has now left junior school and will start a new chapter in her life when she goes to her new school after the holidays.

She did very very well in her sats and obtained level 5 in english and science and a level 4 in maths.

She did so well to get in to her new school and although its a boarding school she will not be boarding and home every night.Megan we are so proud of you you will go far for sure.

Here is her video of her last memories of her junior school days and it brings a tear to my eye

future pianist

Daniel is quite the little piano player here and maybe by the look of his technique will be a future star on the ivorys

Number 1

Well done Megan for getting first place in your running race at sports day today.
She went on to get 2 3rds and a fourth place as well.

The rain stayed away and all the children did a great job.

Ice queen

Megan is beautiful as ice queen and she is living up to her image this week as I am sure hormones are starting to kick in and we are in conflict over this that the other.

Today she has gone to a friends house after school for a swimming party,its an outdoor pool and I am sure she will will be feeling a little ice maiden as the weather is a little chilly now.
I have missed her not being here tonight and looking forward to her getting home.Ahhh see even my ice queen melts my heart

Sometimes u get discouraged
Because I am so small


And I always leave my fingerprints
On furniture and walls


But everyday I'm growing


I'll be grown up someday


Bnd all those tiny handprints


Will surely fade away


So heres a final handprint


Just so you can recall


Exactly how my fingers looked


When I was very small !

Carnival time again

Phew what a weekend we have been enjoying the town celebrations and it started with a party in the park with a few tribute bands,Take that 2 being the finale and we didnt get home till after midnight,think the candy floss had kept Daniel going and once 8pm came Lucy was oblivious to the noise as she lay sleeping in her pram.
After a few glasses of wine I was dancing the night away and we had great company and a great night

Young and in love

My big girl is starting a new journey in her life and is going to move in with her boyfriend Chris.

She has handed in her notice at work and at the end of the month will move almost 200 miles away to start her new life ans I wish her the very very best as that is what she deserves,the best!!

I think there is nothing better than young love and the joys of starting out hand in hand with the person that you love and trust and I hope that she settles well in her new home.

We all wish them both lots of love

St Trinian

Megan had to go to school dressed as a character from a book and although technically St Trinian is not a book she decided to go as the posh one from the recent film and so it was curlers and knee high socks and I think the end result was great in fact I liked it better than her regular uniform

Lord Mayors celebration

Once each year the streets of Norwich are closed for the lord Mayors celebration and today the sun shone for all.
Daniel waved his flag for England and I am sure he has gone to bed with aching wrists from all the flag waving.
Over 60 decorated floats and marching bands took part and we had a really great time watching them all float by
