Where I have been working - bit of a jumble!
As you can see below I spread out a bit.
Even onto the window sill.

All for now. I will visit all who visit me and those ending with with the same number as me.
On Friday as I said I helped with preparations for School Christmas Fair. Spent time with boys when they came home from school and we all had lovely dinner together. On Sat both parents had to work although our son had hoped to come home at lunch time but was needed all day. Luckily didn't have to work all night. We were able to have lovely evening together. On Sat morning we took Sam to band practice. A friend took Harry to football. In the afternoon boys donned cub and beaver uniforms and we took them to do bag packing at local co op to raise funds for a new scout/cub hut. Afterwards we took boys for an ice cream treat. Of course DH and I had a little treat as well- would have been rude not to :-) We then waited for the Christmas Light Switch On - it was a bit of a let down really but the children had a great time.
On Sunday Sam went to football practice and I cooked Sunday lunch. We all went for a walk in the afternoon and then Harry went to a birthday party , Sam stayed at home with DH and I went with my son. When we got back the boys went to bed and my D.I.L. had come home and we had tea together. I took it easy on Monday - a bit more crafting :-) After school DH and I took the boys for their swimming lesson. DS and D.I.L. went to see James Blunt in Leeds. After taking boys to school this morning ( well DH took them) we came home - and I carried on crafting :-)
Tomorrow collecting our granddaughters from school and giving them some tea. There's never a dull moment :-)
View just over the road from my son's home- he also has this behind his home.
Son and grandsons pointing towards their road and asking if they could go that way as we were going around the block - not far.

Hi Anne - glad you managed some down time after all that activity. I think it's such a lovely time, the run up to Christmas - really exciting, and gets me in the mood (just a big kid, really!) Anyway, I hope the fair does really well - you've got some great stuff there. I particularly like the pretty blue boxes and the wreaths. Happy WOYWW, Chris # 8

Lots of Christmas busy-ness this week, Anne! Hope the craft fair goes well. My one experience of one was a wash out so I shan't bother again! Thanks for your visit and your nice comment - glad you like my pages. I hope you find a nice soap making class, with a teacher as good as ours! We had fun tonight.

So glad you are having happy, busy times with your family, Anne! I love seeing glimpses of the projects you are working on. We plan to have 12 family members around our dinner table tomorrow, just missing my oldest son and his family in NY, but thankful the rest of us can gather :) xx

Sounds like you had a great trip to Yorkshire - all that family time & great scenery too ! Thanks for visiting Ali #22
ReplyDeleteHi Anne,
ReplyDeleteUhoh - my computer is acting up.
I must say I need to take a break after reading all that you've been busy with! The wreaths and boxes look great. I have an idea for a wreath and if it comes to fruition I'll write a post.
The mistle toes tags are for nail polish. Several had said socks and I really like that idea too.
I've had my Thanksgiving meal so it was a perfect time to visit desks - either that or take a nap!!
Thank you for visiting me already! Happy belated WOYWW
Hugs,

ReplyDeleteSo glad you are up to doing it all, every blessing of the LORD, Shaz in oz.x #12

Thanks for your kind comments on my blog - sorry its a late call this week - Blogger keeps refusing to load for me! I am feeling much better and have even managed some sewing!! x Jo
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you have Christmas well under control. Great job.
ReplyDeleteHi Anne,
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my Chris Isaak post. I don't go to a lot of concerts at all. I've been listening to his music for years and years. At the last minute Alyce called and told me she had an extra ticket. Yay!!
Hugs,
