Yesterday we all did our own thing ~ DH and Twin II went to watch a local football match, DD celebrated a friend's birthday so went to see the new Alice in Wonderland/Johnny Depp film (verdict: excellent) and me and Twin I (beat Twin II by appearing 1 minute earlier in the World) went to the Garden Centre! Now Twin I and Twin II, being typical boys aged 12, are not big on visiting Garden Centres and desperately hope they won't be spotted by anyone they know . . . . BUT today was Mother's Day so an exception was made and today I woke up to . . . . .
A beautiful boquet of purple iris and pink carnations with a pink bag and heart shaped chocolate and a cute little sheep shelf sitter with a bean-bag body, knitted arms and legs and a felt heart for a nose!
My dear Mum and Dad (aka 'the patient' who's still recovering but doing really well) came for the day and Roast Beef with all the trimmings was thoroughly enjoyed by all for lunch and fresh cream scones and tea (or in my case, you've guessed it, cappuccino) for Supper. Although it was a busy day I thoroughly enjoyed it and was all set up tonight for my final tonic of the weekend ~ a good dose of cross-stitching until DD offered me a manicure which I couldn't resist so I am right now a very happy bunny and will crack on with Noah tomorrow . . . . .

Happy Mother's Day Jane!! I forgot that it was Mother's Day over in the UK. You probably already know , but we don't celebrate here until May. The day my son was born, it was Mother's Day. The best Mother's Day gift I've ever gotten!:)
Happy Mothers Day. I love your stitching. I shall be watching with interest as I see a lot of things on your stash listh that I either have or would like lol. I do live in England and I think that Hayley should win Dancing on ice. What do you think? Thank you for your kind comments on my blog. I'm fairly new to blogging too.
