a party planner?

I'd admit it! I love throwing a party. Not your average throw a sausage on the BBQ bring a plate kinda party, but one with all the trimmings. I could go nuts! I think it could be my calling. There is a problem with throwing parties though, I'm always running round like a headless chook on speed that I never get a chance to take a breath and enjoy the ambience, so I need to learn to balance the two. I do get somewhat excited too and maybe that mixed with the odd glass of Pinot Gris is a recipe for disaster. Ok, no more drinking at my own parties, strictly reserved for other peoples parties (lets hope there will be a few this summer or else it's looking a little dry)....

With that said the follow up to Louie's 1st birthday will have to be mine. Im thinking a tea party on the lawn. Peony roses, my grandmothers china, pastel accents, and delicate tasty nibbley morsels. Ok, and a sneaky wee sparkles too..

my baby is ONE

Today Louie is ONE. I know we all say it, where has that time gone, but its true! Only yesterday I was holding the new love of my life in my arms after being delivered by caesarean section. This wee boy has brought so much love and happiness to our lives, I feel truly blessed that I am his Mamma.

So here's to you my darling. Mummy, Daddy, James and Jesse wish you a very Happy 1st Birthday. We love you with all our hearts as you continue to brighten our lives...

craft day wednesday

A new tradition has started... Craftday Wednesday. Where myself and my two scrapbooking homies scrap the day away. There is lots of laughs, lots of coffee, and if we are lucky lots of scrapbooking done. Sometimes chocolate is involved, yesterday it took consuming 6 pieces of the stuff to realise that it wasn't strawberry but turkish delight i was eating. I hate turkish delight.

And yesterday was the beginning of my Project Life adventure. I never knew my life was so goddam exciting, but when you put together a weeks worth of photos from all the stuff achieved that week it really does make for good reading. Some weeks I suppose will be less exciting than others, so then I'll fill my pages with random thoughts and pretty stuff.

So here is my first attempt,

So Craftday Wednesday's just got a whole lot more exciting... now to convince Matty to deliver sushi every week for the busy scrappers...mmmmm

Love Bee
