sugar and spice

Well it's been a few days since the last blog, that's because we've been BUSY!!!! We went to the new water park AQUATICA, it's really lovely, it looks like they've bought in loads sand from the early learning centre, it was lovely, the rides were great. OOPS I DID IT AGAIN..... got burnt that is, but this time i forgot to take a photo and it's not so bad now. Jamie and Nicky joined us on Sunday, they've been to Disney and Universal and whizzing round the parks as there are just no queues. WONDERFUL !!! We went to Seaworld on Monday, again no queues!! Sorry forgot my camera again. We're off to Macy's today as they've got a big SALE on, so we'll see what's on offer then I think we're off to GATORLAND (very touristy) and then maybe the CHEESECAKE FACTORY, well I bliming hope so anyway. Right off to have my morning bagel now and cup of English tea (we bought out PG Tips) xxx

Hi all Well we made it, after a rather noisy (screaming kids) and smelly (pooey kids) flight we got here and WOW how lovely is this house We've stayed in a few houses in Florida and this is by far the best, it's absolutely amazing and soooo large I WANT ONE !!!!! We got a tip off by Amanda (the lucky girl who's mum and dad own this) to grab the downstairs bedroom, there's 5 in total, and well, the bed is soooooo big I haven't seen Ricky at night for three nights now!!! The whole place is stunningly furnished the kitchen is ginormous and there's absolutely everything that you could need. I also want a top loader washing machine and a much bigger kitchen with central island, that's not tooooo much to ask, is it? I would certainly recommend this house, it's also really conveniently located for all the attractions just contact amanda on http://www.yourtouchofcraft.com/ and treat yourself. We went to Universal Islands of Adventure on Friday and I got coerced...

OK, so what is this exfoliating thingy ???? I thought I'd had a real good scrub, in fact I didn't think I'd have much skin left after all that scrubbing....... and still it wasn't good enough What is it about going on holiday with a size 8 rather gorgeous, rather tanned young beauty that makes you soooo vain !!!! Hopefully she'll eat LOADS of burgers and fries out there and will have to ask to borrow some of my clothes. xxx

Wow, Six weeks flew by! I am talking about the beginners course that has just finished. We had 2 groups of lovely ladies all eager to learn their new hobby. Some had done scrapbooking before but came along to learn some new techniques and some were complete virgins! There were some complete light bulb moments, like when some of the ladies actually discovered that journaling was therapeutic and started journals to write all there memories ready for when they do their pages. There were also funny moments like when one of the Tuesday night ladies stitched her stitching template onto the page! Oh and who could for get those wonderful cupcakes that Sue baked for our last session - yum yum! Thank you ladies for being really super, you were a pleasure to teach. Don't forget to register on the web site and look out in your inbox for a update on the Off the Page course. Now to the next 6 weeks of beginners which starts tomorrow...... HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
