I'm in LOVE..

...with Cornwall. What a holiday, the weather stayed gorgeous for us, so sunburn all round! We went to so many different places, and I cant really fault any of them. I love the place, badly, and would return tomorrow if I could. I have a few brilliant photos to share with you, the first has to be of the chapel that we rented, I mean when you see a photo of a place and then you arrive and see its full glory, its amazing, we really couldnt believe how beautiful this place was, well worth the money and well worth the many hours drive! Check this place out..
I have a few favourie photos, we popped along to a couple of beaches for the day and the kids loved it, the first been at Perranporth and the second been Fistral, I love the photo of Jack, Jake and Lexie running from the waves, they spent the majority of the time doing that - lol - and all the kids posing is a great...

...and of course we cannot forget sweet baby riley and the first feel of sand between his toes - bless him -

The only time I believe that we really felt 'ripped off' was the 'amazing' sea life aquarium in Newquay!!! Well what can I say, apart from Cazz been petrified of sharks and then me petrified of turtles/tortoises (infact anything shell like) we were a pair of muppets going round there - but imagine spending over £50 for just under 45 minutes of - well - most certainly not an amazing aquarium as far as we were concerned!!! but the best picture I managed to get was of the Jellies, which was about the only cool thing in there.

TTFN until the next instalment xxx

Quickie..

Just a quick one as I am speedily trying to get all the packing sorted for the holiday, which Jack is very excited about, as we only have three more sleeps... hehe
Have quite a bit to add, hopefully have five mins later to do that.. TTFN X

Cards..

Just a couple of cards to add...
One thats for my parents wedding anniversary, simple but sweet (to be honest I feel pretty run down tonight, so I wasnt too adventurous! - sorry mum and dad) and the other was for a friend whos just moved house - finally - after been messed about for months.
The anniversary card ties in with the DCM weekly dare...

Sick of Choc...

...can we, as in women, ever be sick of chocolate! The will power to stop yourself from having one tiny piece is exhausting! lol
I kind of talked myself into making truffles for my parents silver wedding anniversary! I did their invitations, favour boxes and I thought, oooh how lovely, handmade truffles... but you have to bear in mind that I have never made truffles before! So why the hell did I offer, a moment of pure insanity.
Well they went well, and looked good and tasted great (see will power slipped already) but my god, how hard is it to make a truffle shape, I could have launced the melon baller out of the window at one point! and my poor friend Cazz! lol well lol - language is all I can say my dear - LMAO.
So I tuttled off to Tesco and sadly bought some 'heaven' truffles... and we sat watching BB (Cazzs request, most certainly not mine) stuffing a truffle into favour boxes, I hope mother appreciates this!!!

Also for those of you that know us! We are very much a BMW family, old ones not new ones! But I have been ordered to take photos of my trusty beautiful BMW as we are selling it! Boo Hoo... so off again I tuttled outside to take a few piccies, and I'm on my second one and then 'where the hell did that rain come from!!!' god only knows, one minute it was dry then it was a downpour, hence the rain on lovely jubbly car.

Thank you Cazz for your help with the chocolate, and the Riley poop poop incident (whilst I was at Tescos) - (good boy) - x
