Catching Up

Posted on Saturday, November 10, 2007 at 09:05

I have been away for a few weeks from the computer although thankfully not quite as long as I thought it might be. These weeks have been really busy. At the end of this month I have a craft fair so I have been really busy getting ready for it. I have made a lot of cards, some card toppers/buttons for those who wish to make their own cards, and some little notebooks. Actually, the notebooks have been such a success already that I am constantly having to restock my supply!! I should have enough for it now but I will probably continue to add to my supply right up to the sale itself. I do want to make some Christmas Shortbread to sell as well but that will have to be done closer to the time.

I only realised tonight that Thanksgiving is so close. I thought I still had a few weeks to go. I am going to have to get busy over the next week. As you all know we obviously don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Ireland but as a family we decided last year to celebrate it and so enjoyed it that we are doing it again this year and possibly having friends join us. I can't wait!

The kids have also been busy. James is really enjoying Nursery School and Amy is doing well at school. She is starting to get ready for the school Christmas production. She doesn't want to be in the choir. She wants to have a speaking part or to dance. Let's hope she's not disappointed! I don't care what she does in it as I'll be the proud, doting mummy anyway!

Amy is starting swimming lessons again this week which I am pleased about. Neither her daddy or I are strong swimmers and I want Amy to be able to swim well. James should be starting in a few weeks, hopefully.

Amy was also really excited last night as her daddy brought her to the driving range at the local golf course and gave her her first lesson. I think she believes she has the makings of Tiger Woods already?!!LOL!!!!

Peter also had good news on the job front. At long last he got his well earned and deserved promotion. He is now a Senior Lecturer. I am really proud of him. He works really hard for everyone and really deserves the recognition in work.

Anyway, that's the main news caught up on. Hopefully I'll be able to drop in to HSB a bit more often in the next few weeks!

Catherine :o)

I am so excited that you are doing Thanksgiving again this year.
I can't wait to see the pictures from the day.

Hope you have a great day with your family.
God bless,
