MY VINTAGE HEART SWAP
I have sent off my parcel for the My Vintage Heart swap
organised by Dolly from My Cherry Heart
Hopefully Missy from will have it by next week and I will then post some other photos of the goodies I sent to her.
Here are a couple of sneak peeks at what I sent to her
GIVEAWAY WIN
I was lucky enough to be a winner in Laura and Linda of Lilly Cottage’s giveaway.
Here is my box of goodies.
I was lucky enough to win a lavender shoe, a heart, a cupcake hanging, a gorgeous shabby bird to hang, a birds nest pincushion, some beautiful glasses by Laura and a pretty wrist cuff
MY YOUNGEST TURNS 25
Where has the time gone. Yesterday my youngest child turned 25.
On Monday we had a BBQ lunch for his birthday at his and his girlfriends house.
The first family get together at their own home.
Too hot outside to be standing around singing, so it was into the kitchen.Chloe and Lachlan joined in the singing of Happy Birthday to Michael
OFF TO THAILAND
Child Number 3 – not really a child he’s 27 next month and last night or should I say
early this morning 00.45am Daniel and Candice his girlfriend went off on holidays to Thailand. Max and I drove them to the airport. They will be home again on 12th February
As a Mum I will be happy to see them arrive home safe and sound at 9.20pm on 12th February.

Alison - It's fun to see the pretties you won! Oh... I understand wholeheartedly how quickly our children grow-up and how we never stop worrying about them. I already feel this way, and my girls are still so little! :o)

Good for you for winning--what a nice surprise!
Hi Alison, great goodies you won! It feels like a million miles away before my boys are as big as yours! Sorry I forgot to comment on your post about the party (I read it and must have got distracted - as usual!!). The kids are adorable and great job with the little suit for Riley. He's so cute :)
I completely understand about wondering where the time goes. My baby turned 20 earlier this month, he is 6 & 8 years behind his sisters. Does this mean we are getter old, or is it just them?!
Be well and enjoy it all!
What fun pretties! Your sons are so handsome! You must be proud!!
Hugs! Nancy

Hello Alison,
Thanks for visiting my blog and your kind comments. The effects you see on the border of my photos are called "digital brushes".
These artistic touches are very hot today in digital scrapbooking. I also used them to design my blog banner.
I am glad you liked them.
Warm regards,
Gabriela
Hi Alison
Your box of goodies looks delicious. You have a wonderful family, there's little Chloe again with her beautiful red hair. My daughter goes overseas soon & I'm already feeling nervous. Haven't forgotten the coffee!
