I have printed and cut some tiny bunting flags for the birthday cake tomorrow, and it is taking ages to hand-tie them. I would have used the sewing machine but I need to just slouch in front of the TV.
I didn't sit down between going to school this morning and pick up time, somehow managing to turn a quick clean of the house into a mammoth task, and to all but me, it doesn't look any bloody different!
So my best intentions of a double FMQ Friday went by the wayside as checking nibbles and dunking marshmallows in melted chocolate for the party took priority after tea, sorry.
Just to keep you 'on side' here's a picture of the gang this morning, all ready for Children In Need Day at school. The girls had to make do with an extra bow on their shop-bought Pudsey ears, but I made dear son's, (uncontrollable-shedding-yellow fur and all!) and attached them to his hat, which he didn't take off all day...
Oh I cannot wait for this time tomorrow - I can then start to think about Christmas :)
Gorgeous pic. Hope you can relax soon.
ReplyDeleteGreat pic, there are clearly no limits to your talents! Make sure you DO take that rest before you start tackling the 'C' word! If the birthday frenzy is any measure of what's to come you are gonna need it!
ReplyDeleteGreat picture! Good luck with the big finale!
ReplyDeleteHope the girls have a great day
ReplyDeleteYou cleaned before the party?! Hope everyone has a brilliant time and you survive, sanity intact.
ReplyDeleteThey are cute! I hope you have a wonderful party!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely kids! and lovely quilts and textile projects, too! Just happened upon your blog. Your "man quilt" is great--love the gray with reds.

Love hearing and seeing the family - my five would die of acute embarrasment if one tiny mention of them went into print! I have to pretend that they do not exist. Annabelle x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous picture! Love it! Lara @ Sew Many Stitches Later
ReplyDeleteI can sympathise: that was me this time last weekend, just getting to the end of the birthday season and preparing for a huge family party. I am chilling this morning! Hope you have a good one
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute family you have Pudsey ears and all!
ReplyDeleteWoW, just realized how many birthdays you have to prepare just in November! You probably did great. Happy belated birthday to those three cuties! Again, had to look up who Pudsey was ;-)
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Parenting is all about bouncing (from one thing to the next!). Hope you've had some down time today! Jxo
ReplyDeleteThat's such a cute photo! Have a good weekend and try to get at least 20 minutes to put your feet up with a cup of tea!
ReplyDeletewhat an adorable family you have! cute, cute, cute!
ReplyDeletePS blogger hates my comments today. sorry for the odd login
Very cool with the Pudsey ears, I didn't see them on sale anywhere this year :o(
ReplyDeleteVery impressive (though I am still in so much awe about the tardis you wouldn't believe). I can sympathise re the birthday season - ours starts early next month through to January so combined with Christmas it is full on madness!
