A collaboration...

 with our girls...
On Friday Miss J and I walked up to the school to pick Miss A up...all the way home..."what are we going to do?...it's your Birthday...we have to do something fun!!"
so out came the paper...colours and we collaborated in this picture...rotating every 15 minutes...for about an hour and a half. We chatted, and commented on what we liked about each other's drawing...it was perfect...really perfect.

It's not easy getting a shot of us together!!
This was #7 of 20!!!

Mr R came home...said "get ready...we're going out" (it was a surprise)...so before we left we had that fabulous cake made by Bridget, and then headed over to a Sushi restaurant...very close by.YUM!

We were 21 in total...it's always lovely to see everyone!!!
Thanks for all the Birthday wishes...

What did you get up to this weekend??

Have a wonderful Monday...I'll be passing by to say hello today.

WE bloggers...

yay...FINALLY this VERY SLOW computer....has given me a break...it ONLY took 20 minues to load the first image...and 10 minutes the second.

AND...LOOK who it is!!!!

YES...TAM!!!!

She so sweetly passed by my Sister's pad today on her way back from Brighton. It's always SO,SO,SO...wonderful to see her, she'll be posting this week if she has time,she's in the transition of moving Home and will be without the internet for a few weeks...it's amazing how dependant we are to this linked World of technology.

She was wearing the prettiest dress...I will post further pictures of our few hours together when I get a faster net connection.

That's little B in the forefront of the pic...and boy has she grown into the most adorable of toddlers...SO pretty and coy...but very aware of every happening surrounding her.TOO cute!

I HOPE YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW HAPPY I AM TO FINALLY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO POST A PIC!!!!

YUP...and another one...this is a day after my Mama came back from hospital...she looks pretty good for having a double Hip OP at 67 yrs of age...don't you think???

And these are her 3 gorgeous grandaughters...the 2 on either side of little O you probably recognise...they were all VERY excited as they were about to spend a day celebrating Little Miss O's 4th Birthday...whilst I stayed home with Baby M and Mama...

They went to Hever Castle..some of you may know of it and if you don't it'a where Henry VIII lived with a few of his wives for part of his Life...it's open to the public and the gardens are spctacular. The girls particularily loved the water maze!

She does rest during the day but comes downstairs and walks around(with crutches),has meals downstairs and then returns to putting her feet up...I think she's getting bored already and it's only been 1 week.

SO very proud of her recovery so far...WELL DONE MAMA!!!!

Oh, I have SO many pics to show you that I have been snapping up of our daily going ons...one more week and I'll be back with the girls in Canada. Mama is NOT looking forward to me leaving...and says "what am I going to do without you here?"...but I'm sure she'll be fine.

I can't believe it's Sunday already...thanks for passing by,I am looking forward to also sharing sketches which I have been working on...BUT now I'm off to check what you've been upto...

Show and Tell x4

I was just over at *Cart before the Horse* and there's a game which I thought would be fun to play on this rainy day...

if you'd like to play::

OK, here's the game-

In your picture files, go to the 4th album, then go to the 4th picture. Show and tell.

 Then go down 4 more albums, go to the 4th picture, and show and tell.

Do this 4 times (if you can) to get a total of 4 pictures.

Ready, get set, go!

a painting for Beth I made at Christmas...

a lavender pillow of Love...which I made and gave to little Finn.

a little girl's bedroom mural...wow, time passes, this was painted almost 4 years ago.

little Miss A hanging in our family room...at just 3 months old...

That was FUN!

If you want to play too,

just leave a link to your

Show and Tell
