First of all I would like to wish everyone a very blessed Easter, I hope you all have a great time with family and friends.
Now to catch up with whats been happening in the last few weeks, life got very busy there for awhile with work and lots of birthday celebrations.
Our youngest daughter had her birthday a few weeks ago, and judging from the pictures I think she was pretty happy with her presents.
she is a huge Twilight fan
and she was pretty excited about getting a new mp3 player and also a lovely pretty pink Billabong jacket amongst other things.
It was also our cute little nieces 1st birthday and she celebrated by having a smiley face party. When she was born we gave her a smiley face balloon, which she still has by the way, and now she loves anything with a smiley face on it.
The birthday girl.
she has just started walking
with her cousin and I.
Her party food table with all the happy faces on the food.
We all had a great time.
On the sewing front I made a few purchases from spotlight the other day as the girls and I would like to make an apron each to hang in the kitchen. If you go over to Netty's blog Thats Graphic she has done a post about the history of aprons with some great pictures.
Won't they make up the prettiest aprons with a striped coordinating pocket on the front.
Finally, thanks for hanging in there if you have got this far, it was our 23rd wedding anniversary on the 22nd of March. We went out for a lovely lunch and I thought I would post a wedding photo to mark the occassion, my goodness we looked soooo young.
I would love to see some more wedding photos from all you bloggers out there so if your brave enough to post one let me know so I can come visit.
