more crafting

All these were made using the Confections kit from Studio Calico. Looking at them all together they feel a bit samey - maybe it's the pink felt on each page!

travel layouts

Just sharing some of the pages I've done using the Via Airmail kit from Studio Calico. I'm enjoying getting some of the photos from our trips finished, this kit was perfect for these layouts. I just need to get some more journalling onto them now.

birthday day out

We went to London Zoo on Saturday as Katy decided that's what her Dad would really like to do for his birthday.

She loves giraffes and could watch them for hours. Everything else she just sees, looks at and then is like 'OK, next...' but with the giraffes we have to nag her to leave. It was such a hot day, sadly the winter coats we had brought were no more than excess baggage which we were none to happy to carry around all day. Word of warning - there are no lockers at the zoo. Anywhere.

Afterwards we went to the Rainforest Cafe for dinner, which was pretty nice. Which was a relief after some of the reviews I'd seen.

At the end of the night George was presented with a bowl of cream (yes really) so that the restaurant could sing happy Birthday to him.

a room of my own

A year ago it looked like this. Now we've finally settled on what room is what, and the 'blue room' is now my space. I love it.

Since these photos, I've put my sewing machine on this chest of drawers at the foot of the bed, and will maybe put my cricut there too.

Now all I need is a bit more time there.
