Schools out for Summer

After a busy final week of term, school is finally over for another year.

In the last week of term we had sports days, staff vs rounders match, leavers bbq and leavers assembly, so it was kind of hectic, but so worth it :)

Here is a picture of DS3 with his year 6 teacher, who I know he will miss

Well I finished all the teachers presents and cards, i did get a little feed back which was all positive :)

Here are the pictures of the finished items

We filled them with selection of chocolate bars (a must for teachers)
 pens, pencils, notepads and tissues



Each had the teachers name added for that personal touch



Each one slightly different



Each one made with love

Getting close to the end of term

As we edge closer to the end of the school year, the more things I have to fit in, in the last week or two DS2 just had his prom/party which he went to, that was his last day at lower school and he has now started upper school (a new school campus)  in preparation for september and the long haul towards his exams. 

DS1 has had his prom. He did look handsome and I am very proud of him.

DS3 has had a taster day at his new  school and loved it, although he felt a little lost at first as everyone else had at least one person they knew, but he soon made some new friends :) He has also had his year 6 production.  It was called 'School Daze' and was absolutely brilliant.  Well Done all involved.




DS3 is the blonde boy in shirt and tie


And finally my little girl met her new teacher for next year, she seems very happy so lets hope she stays that way.



On to craft, I have 2 teachers presents and 2 teaching assistants presents to make. 

Here is a picture of the first one, not quite finished but you get the idea, i will make another one like this and the 2 smaller ones for the TA's.

Plus a card I made for my mother in laws birthday

Next post might not be for a little while as we have the last week of term and all the leavers activities for DS3.

Thanks for looking x

Time flies

I cant believe we are over half way through the year, where does the time go.

Well I have been busy with the family as per normal and it is set to get even busier in the next couple of weeks as the end of the summer term approaches and my babysitters (my parents) have gone and left me for a week (hope you have a great holiday :)
So I will need to be in 3 places at once some of the time so a lot of planning will be done and hopefully I will not forget to collect any of the kids from various places, lol.


I have managed to fit in some crafting

Here is a card I made for my Uncle's 60th Birthday.

I am very proud to show you my first scrapbooking commission. 
I made this album by request of a friend.  We have a mutual friend who is moving on to pastures new to the other side of the world.  It was a guest book/scrapbook for friends to sign at the leaving party and messages from those who could not attend, then photos can be added to make it a precious keepsake and reminder of all of us left behind here in UK.

Here are just a few pages of the album

Hope you like it :)
