Rather than just disappear and you worry if I'm OK this is just a quick post to say I'm taking an internet break for a while.
See you soon!
Just a diary of my mundane doings, family updates and thoughts about this, that and the other

I'm a total basket case
Hubs has been off work for the past week. So here's some of what we've been up to.
I love baskets. So, having some birthday money to spend (I'm now the grand old age of 37) I spent it on baskets. Aren't they pretty? *sigh* Oh, on the left you can just see the flowers hubs bought me on my birthday.
We are starting to build a dolls house. Here's what we did so far.
The girls chose a pattern from the internet, this one is pink hearts, and we printed off and glued to cardboard to fit into the bottom of a box.
I cut up some suede effect fabric for a carpet and we've cut out a window. We're planning many levels, some stairs, curtains, pictures, etc.
We also visited a local bird sanctuary. I particularly loved the cranes, but the girls loved the flamingos.
Here's a fancy looking crane (above).
We had a trip to the cinema too and watched Toy Story 3, it was hilarious, particularly Spanish Buzz.
We hired some videos: Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang, Alvin and the Chipmunks - the Squeakquel, and Sherlock. Nanny McPhee was favourite with the girls and hubs and I loved Sherlock.
So how was your week?
