Bigger round the middle?

Good evening folks. Hope you all had a wonderful family Christmas and got something lovely in your stockings. We have had the best time here. Santa brought Bradley most of the things on his list and yes the grown ups had just as much fun with it all as he did. My Mum came for dinner and we all had a really lovely day. We had another fab day on Tuesday, our little fella was 4. He had a party at a play centre with all his friends and had a fire engine cake with flashing lights on. I made a huge meat and potato pie for tea and then we had yummy cupcakes. Mmm!

I imagine I'm not alone in saying 'I've eaten and drunk too much!' It feels like I have'nt stopped and I'm sure I've piled on the pounds, although I dare'nt get on the scales and see just how much. Oh well, at least I still fit in my pj's. :o) Huge New Year diet heading my way.

I made a card this afternoon following a fab sketch over at Crafty Ribbons Challenge

I used: Saturated Canary, Hand Me Downs image

My Fave 5 Christmas cards of 2011

Happy Christmas everyone. Are you excited? not long now until the big fella arrives, just had a little tidy up and now we're waiting for Sam & Bradley to arrive and then the gangs all here. We are sooooo looking forward to it, even Kyle who's 19, I think he and Wayne are looking forward to playing with the toys more than Bradley.

 

I'm joining in with the fun over at Debby's Blog and showing you my fave 5 Christmas cards. Thank You so much Debby for doing this again, you are a love for organising this and also very generous for offering such a scrummy prize.

Hope you will join in too, I am looking forward to seeing everyone's fave cards.

I want to wish you all a magical Christmas with your loved ones and hopefully, if you've all been good, something nice from Santa.
