who's a pretty boy then !!!

Well like i mentioned in my last post my little boy was about to turn into a big boy as he was going to start secondary school today. You know me and hubby have been rather worried i guess about him starting, not because i dont think he would like his school but because he just isnt like his sister at all Beth is more out going, in control i guess but Cameron well abit more quiet, more gentle, keeps his feelings hidden if you know what i mean. Sometimes he can become upset if something goes wrong, sowe were  just a wee bit concerned that if something got to him he might get upset. But alais all was good, very good he seemed really quite jolly going out to get the bus

Cameron all dressed up and ready to go...

Bear waiting patiently for the school bus to come by..

there he goes....

 and when he got home well we couldnt shut him up....

So all in all he had a good day, so now when tommorrow comes i shall be alot more relaxed.

big day for my little boy

As you know schools back this week and my not so little boy is starting secondary school tommorrow. I really dont know where the time has gone. Beth will be in yr8, Cameron starting yr7 and Bear will be going back to preschool to do all afternoons apart from the mondays. So all change, things wont be as they were, before i know it they will all be left school and starting their own little families, STOP just hang on, deep breath i still have a few years yet even though Beth is going on 18.

Talking about getting older. Flo is now 2 weeks old and growing well, you want to see....

You cant quiet see it from this photo, but flo has some little white flight feathers coming through...

Breakfast anyone?

 What else have i been up to well, i went to carboot sell on the bank hol monday and picked up a few things, 1 being a pin board and i had great plans for my 40p buy, i made this....

Ive seen so many of these around and what a great idea but i really didnt want to pay for one when i think i can do one myself, so here it is and the first thing to go on is a postcard from a very dear friend who we only see about once a year because he lives in china. This postcard though has come from Australia when he visited there a few weeks back... for me i can only just dream of going, maybe one day it may become a reality...

Not bad for a first attempt prehaps the ribbon could be alittle straighter but hey i have space for little things and big things...so nice to have something different up.

Another thing which has happened lately is that finally we have a fence put all the way down the garden, we just have to finish the end bit but that can wait a little longer..

23 fence panels it took, yes really wasnt cheap but i will let you all into a little secret. Really i done well because where fence panels would cost about £20.00 a panel mine only cost £10.00 a panel from a lovely little place down the road that deals in seconds ( hand me down wood supplies that big companies no longer need etc)

So all in all i have got my fence for half the cost..

hopefully after saving a few more pennies we would like to get some 6ft x 1ft trellis to go onto the top hence why we havent had the posts cut down.
I have to apologise a little though for the messy state of me beds believe it or not there is some potatoes still in the middle plot and a few parsnips and carrots in the other ones. If hubby was up and about the beds would look so much better as there would be more time to keep them..i just have to look forward in having to cut back all of the long grass so it can all re seed itself, but i must say its going to be a BIG job... anyway what have all of you been up to i shall go now and find out... see you all soon x x
