Five Favourites From June

I've finally picked my five favourite photos from June and boy was it hard to narrow it down!  Here they are in no particular order:

My niece Elsie and my great niece Charlotte :)
Sarah showing off my mum's lucky bingo charm :)
Me, Nancy and Jackie all ready for the wedding of the year :)
Me and Paul on a rare night out :)
My baby on her 21st birthday :)
I've got a crop tomorrow so I'm hoping to get them all scrapped then!

Have you got five favourite photos you want to scrap this month?

Five Favourites Finished

I can't believe I've had this saved in draft since the 26th June and just haven't had the time to post it, time sure is a flying!

Here are my five layouts from my favourite photos in May:

I love this picture of Pippy.  She hates having her photo taken so I had to sneak in to position on the breakfast bar, get my phone ready to snap and then call her name :)
If there's a hat to try on then Maddie has to try it!  They all seem to suit her though, she thought this one would be good for casual office attire :)
What can I say about this apart from my boy is so handsome! He takes a lovely outdoor photo almost every single time :)
A photo of me and Paul that I actually like, normally one of us will be mid blink or not smiling!
This one was from a fun night at the bingo where Paul won some prizes in the rock and roll bingo.  Normally if he has a win he has to share with someone, this time he scooped the whole lot all to himself (well there was wine and chocolates so he had to share those with me! :))
I've managed to get another 5 layouts in my album and finish up two partially used kits at the same time!

I'll be back soon to share my favourite photos from June.

Week Twenty Seven

Week twenty seven was another great week, here are the highlights:

The last picture of my baby as a twenty year old, where does the time go?!?
I had a little win at bingo :)
The first picture of my baby as a twenty one year old :)
She picked the numbers on her cake!
I had a visitor to the garden, Alfie wasn't happy!
Raspberry and white chocolate frape in the office :)
I decided to spring clean my kitchen on the hottest day of the year after putting in a full day at the office!
Dirty pudding was left over birthday cake.
We had Pimms in the office to celebrate a record month!
Maddie actually dressed for the summer!
Saturday morning breakfast in the sunshine :)
Celebrating 4th of July at Sarah's party :)
Where her hubby Chris did a great job with the BBQ :)
And then we chatted round the fire pit :)
And we finally ended the weekend with jelly and evaporated milk, my favourite :)
This week is going to be a quite one so I can get on with much neglected jobs around the house!

I hope  you have a good one, thanks for stopping by

Twenty One Today!

I've done it, I've raised from seed to adulthood another human being!  Today Maddie turns 21 so what better than 21 photos of her through the years :)

Here she is one day old, what a cutie :)  It was the hottest day of the year and they couldn't get her temperature up so she was wrapped up in layers and layers...she's no different now and really feels the cold!
Her first trip on the channel tunnel :) This was back in the day when she loved going on holidays.
Being a beautiful bridesmaid for our friend Sara :) It was her first time but now she's been a bridesmaid five times in total!
Look at that cheeky face! She loved being outside and naked, now she hates both!
I think her dream even now is to be a pirate!
Reception year at school :)
An after breakfast nap and Pitcher and Piano with her beloved Barney, she still has him now!
Nothing changes, she's still a giggler :)
Look at her lovely eyes, she likes to keep them hidden behind glasses now :(
Garson Farm where she picked the winner in the pig race :)
Christingle, I miss it now that she's older :(
One of my favourite ever photos of her :)
And another one, taken outside the Portland Heights hotel as the sun went down :)
Here she is, sweet sixteen!
Still giggling and looking forward to an elephant hunt in London :)
More giggles, I have hundreds of photos of her laughing :)
And the odd funny face (that's a lie because I have hundreds of funny face photos too!)
She the most intelligent person I know, bright as a button :)
She works hard *insert hysterical laugh*
And she is special :)
So happy 21st to my daughter and my best friend....Sam.
Every day you make me smile, laugh and want to do silly things.

I hope you have a fabulous day darling

Love mum xxx
