So how was your weekend? I have to say that we seem to be in a good space with the kids and weekends at the moment. Looking back over the last week:
|
Day 40/365 My Washi tapi order from Paperpeony arrived. I really would recommend her - excellent friendly service. |
|
Day 42/365 Found this beauty in the office garden perched on a hedge. |
|
Day 43/365 And we have silkworms once again - and thousands of them |
|
|
Dy 46/365 I baked, the kids decorated. The best pre mix I have ever bought. |
I have another Instagram lovely to share:
On Friday I comitted to some weekend goals - so let's see how they went:
|
Goal 3 |
Take good pictures of the boys playing rugby tomorrow. It may be a
challenge as the Princess' ballet course is right in the middle of their
game time but maybe. Done - not many action shots but lovely memories - seperate post to follow.
- Swim with the kids at the gym - did not happen -we had a great long lunch with the extended family so we had to miss this one.
Have flowers in the house for Spring day tomorrow. Yes! Bought some when I took the pictures published yesterday
Get my pictures of the week up for Marcia's link up. Yes. And I am already thinking about this Sasturday's
- Re organize and tidy and purge my clothes cupboard Epic fail - started with one sleve and abandoned.
- Re organize and tidy and purge my shoe cupboard Nope - epic fail
Start on a mosaic cross for my moms friend who knitted lovely jerseys for the kids this winter. Not only did I start with one I finished two
Bake something Although a pre - mix but possinbly the best one I have ever bought. (see day 46/365 above)
I am giving myself a 2/1 for the crosses so a 6/8 - not too bad.

Goal 8 |
I love the Mosaic crossed you made. I made my first Mosaic piece with my best friend on Saturday and enjoyed it so much. It was great fun and want to buy the things I need for it, to start as well.
ReplyDeleteHi, do you remember the fun you had with the Blogger Secret Santa last year? I am doing it again this year and we already have 37 people involved after a week. Would you like to join in again... we are going BIG! http://thestilettomum.wordpress.com/2012/08/29/blogger-secret-santa/
ReplyDeleteSorry to post this here but I cannot find an email link on your blog.
What a lovely week! Any goals accomplished is a good week for sure.
ReplyDeleteThose mosaic crosses are exquisite - my word! I think you did a marvellous job on clearing your list - never mind that all were not completed - Rome wasn't built in a day :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Janet - I so enjoy doing them
DeleteYOu did AWESOME on your goals and the crosses are gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteI must tell you, I challenged myself last week at work to just do all my stuff before my boss came back and if I managed, then I'd order some stuff from Cathy. Well, I did so I'll order a little something :)
And GOSH, I love that friendship pic! It's sooooo very precious. Also, is that a binder ring I see on A's backpack? (Connor finds the word "backpack" hilarious - I don't know what's so funny)
Oh I love how you challenge yourself. And nope, not a binder ring - it is a big key chain with a very glittery "A" on it. Because everyone's backpack looke the same they attach something to theirs to quickly find it amongst the rest in the class.
DeleteAh, I love your photos. Especially the one of A & her friend walking. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWell done on your crosses - i did a few a couple of years back, must try the mosaicing again. I'd love to do a round outside table top!
I may just have to try some of this washi tape you and Marcia love :)
ReplyDeleteI am desperate to mosaic but want to first get all my scrapbooking up to date :) I have completed about 5 albums so far!
Sounds like a very fruitful week! :-) Love that photo with the girls sticking their tongues out.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a fabulous weekend and getting creative too, love it!
ReplyDeleteInwould be proud of such a week!
ReplyDeleteWe made those same strawberry cupcakes for Macy's party. YUM!
