I picked this up yesterday as I fancied a quick easy read and jenny colgan always delivers just that. So with coffee and toasted hot cross buns I have curled up on this Good Friday in bed to read and relax. Not something that happens often in this house lol Also yesterday we tackles the huge thorn bush and weeds in the front garden, after a few hours digging it is now a clean canvas to start planting my roses.  Happy Good Friday x

Pottery

Yesterday we headed off to meet friends at a pottery painting place called creative biscuit in south woodford.  We spent a few hours painting our pieces. Can't wait to collect them in a few days. I love the hound that J painted. He tried so hard to match our hound using a photo.  How's your week been?

I started in jan this year to record our life together as we married New Year's Eve.   I have no idea how people complete a page per week I have only just caught up and I'm only doing a page per month.  So here are my pages so far.... So now to start on Aprils pages :-)
