A load of balls! by Rachael Dunne

Last weekend, we took our little one to the first birthday party hes ever been to. I cant believe hes made it to two years old and hasnt been to a birthday party until now! Its not like he doesnt have friends, people just dont seem to have parties like they used to anymore. It was a huge success, the birthday girls had a fabulous time and I dont think Arlo came out of the ball pit for longer than it took to eat a piece of cake. Needless to say, we all slept well that night.

Thanks for taking a look at my new designs. I hope you enjoy making them as much as I enjoyed designing them! X

New Post Box Topper by Sue Way

The latest post box topper is on, and I had no idea what the lady would possibly make as her January topper. To my pleasant surprise, she made a beautiful tribute to our emergency services, featuring a police car, ambulance, fire engine, and even an air ambulance. I must say, she is very talented. This week I have added four new adorable designs for childrens birthdays. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them.

I …. by Carol Clarke

… love to get my walking boots on and head out into the lovely countryside for a walk. This weekend I decided to head to a local country park. This park, like lots of others in the Nottinghamshire/Derbyshire area, was once a coal mine. Now its a lovely country park that straddles the Notts/Derby border. Whilst I was walking along a quiet, out of the way, path I came across these lovely crochet butterflies dancing in the breeze! The 4th photo is the view of Derbyshire from that point, looking over towards yet another old colliery (that has also been made into a park!) and beyond that Hardwick Hall!

Beavering Away by Janice McFarlane

My youngest grandson Harry is part of the Beavers at RAF Benson and looks forward to going each week. He has had a pretty rough couple of weeks in many ways. First of all the shower burst at home and the ceilings down stairs caved in and it flooded everywhere. This was very frightening to Harry who thought the whole house was going to collapse and everyone would be injured or worse. So my daughter had a few bad nights with him. Then we just had horrendous rain and gales so that set him off again. I must admit I dont like hearing the wind. I still remember the hurricane of 1987 when I was a young mum with a baby (my daughter) in a married quarter at RAF Wroughton which was on top of a hill, my hubby was on nights and it was the scariest night of my life. Anyway, I digress, Harry was really scared for the last couple of weeks but, still managed to be a good Beaver. It was an extra bonus that he was awarded beaver of the week, in which the picture my daughter took of him said it all.

My Little Helper by Vicki Avcin

We have our grand daughter living with us at the moment and we also have her gorgeous little cat, Narla, here too. As Zoe works during the day, Narla misses her and has taken to cuddling up with us whenever she gets the opportunity. Guarantee if we sit and watch TV she will be curled up with either hubby or me, but she has decided that getting up on the back of my chair or on my shoulders is the place to be when Im at the computer. If Im not at the computer she will make herself comfortable on hubbys lap. She is a ragdoll/Siamese mix with the Turkish Van ragdoll colour. So she is a very loving little girl. We also have Zoes other cat, which we were to mind for 3 months……. That was 5 years ago! Georgia (or Meow Meow as we call her) is jealous and although there has been no spats, she likes to bail up Narla by lying outside whatever room Narla is in….. it is like you want out you have to get past me first. Meow isnt impressed either that Narla has made herself quite at home on her favourite chair and she is also not impressed that Narla is using her litter box instead of her own. Love them both and their individual personalities. I am just not sure I need help at the computer!
