Catching Up.....

Phew! Another busy week! Hope you are all well?
Not managed much crochet this week but did manage a couple of crafty things.
 

In a spare half hour I fashioned a vase and a votive holder out of a some tin cans and some pretty washi tape.
 

 
Also pimped up some canvas shoes with some fabric paint.
 
 
On the 5th September my sweet baby boy celebrates his 1st birthday! Where has the time gone?
 
2 weeks old
 On Saturday we had a little family party for Bert..............
 
 
On his new police car
 

Playing with his new rocket with little miss
(Little mister has also just started walking so he got new shoes for his birthday too from Grandma and Grandad)
 

 
Such fun!
 

Bear cuddles with Winnie
 

 
Ooh more pressies!!
 

Yummy homemade cake (by yours truly)
 

 
And sparkly chocolate and strawberry pavlova
 
 
We all had an absolutely fabulous day and the sun shone which was an added bonus!
