Here is my desk, which has seen very little action over the past two weeks... I am in the process of drinking a large mug of tea and getting my bullet journal up to date so you can see my journal, distress ink, pens, stencil etc. I have to warn you that this is a very picture heavy post (but not too many words!) - the big news is at the end so feel free to skip through!
In the past few weeks, we have celebrated Alex's 12th birthday so I made a Harry Potter themed cake for him
and went to see Shazam!
We also had school holidays so went down to see my brother and his family, and in the process visited London
and walked along the Southbank
to see the Tower of London.And then Mum joined us so we went to Wisley
and to Painshill Park
The crystal grotto was amazing. Both gardens/parks are well worth a visit if you are in the area.
Have a great week,
With love and God Bless

Wooohoooooooo! I'm so happy that you can come to the Crop Caro - after all these years of knowing you virtually, it'll be amazing to meet you in real life. Don't bring too much with you to craft, no-one gets much done, lol! Happy Birthday Alex, it looks like you had a fantastic time on your travels. The HP cake is rather fab too, my boys would like that and they're 26 and 23 now :-D

Well, that is certainly good news - how did you keep it to the end of your post, which, by the way, was interesting so I loved the journey.
What a fabulous cake you made for Alex who is growing up each time you put his photo on the blog. Enjoy spending days out with him whilst you can. You certainly visited some great places, some of which I have never heard of so no doubt will spend some time on the internet looking them up now.
Have a good week
Hugs, Neet 11 xx

Thanks for your return visit, Caro, and for all your good wishes! I'm so glad you like my little flowers. Not much time to work on them at the moment as I've got to get the website sorted and it's proving very difficult!

Well save the best to last! Really thrilled that you’ll be at crop, what a great day we’ll have! Well done with the cake for Alex (and happy returns to him)..it’s a feast for the eyes and a lot of treats, yum! Looks as though you all packed a lot in for the holidays, how nice to spend time with your Bro, I know we all say it’s nice for all the cousins, but it’s nice for us too!
Gorgeous photos! How awesome that you are able to go to the 10th anniversary crop. If even...I'm way too far away for that one, but I'll have to host my own personal crop at home with you gals. LOL
Have a fabulous week. Dorlene #33
