Good afternoon folks i hope you all had a fabulous weekend, well my grandson Caid got over his tummy bug his sister Lexi also went down with it but they were both ok for the wedding but my poor daughter keely felt ill all day Saturday and she ended up being sick all night Saturday luckily by the time we travelled home on Sunday she was a little better now hubby and i have stinking rotten colds as it happens hubby has stayed in bed today.

Here are a couple of wedding pics that i took,there were some tears as my daughter-in-law Lauren's mum died on Lauren's 18th birthday so her mum's sister cried all through the ceremony.

Good afternoon folks i hope you are all well and keeping warm,i was off Christmas shopping this morning but hubby said to leave it today because of the weather as we now have bucket loads of snow, i have to try and get all my Christmas shopping done in the next couple of days as we have a very busy week coming up with my hospital appointments my dear friends baby grandson Jay's funeral and then our son Aaron's wedding to his lovely girlfriend Lauren! at last a happy occasion, the hospital have said that if he is very sensible he can have his plaster off for the wedding and they will redo it afterwards for him, he is still having trouble with his leg but the drs are hopeful that it will get better as when he was stabbed they have cut through nerves and that's what is causing the problem he is still having trouble sleeping so they have given him some stronger sleeping tablets.
Anyways i have a couple of cards for you two very simple cards which is unusual for me but i quite like them the first one is one of the lovely stamps that Teresa at Crafts and Me is now stocking she's called Melody the one i've used is Melody shopping and she is so pretty if you are registered for the News letter but you don't have long left so be quick.I'm also entering it into the Friday Sketchers challenge.
