the New Year

     I thought I'd start by saying I had a fantastic Xmas with my family, my parents and Tom and myself enjoyed the day with a lovely meal my mum cooked.

              My all time favourite pressie off Tom was this Elk bag named the "Lighthouse Tote" it is made from New Zealand sheepskin leather, the more I use the bag the softer it moulds to my body.


              How sweet is the Lighthouse stamped on the bag


                On the baby O front I now have a Steelcraft Strider 4 pram!!! yay!!! it comes with bassinette and chair to use when baby is older. A great pram, I picked it because of the old fashioned feel and look of the bassinette.

              Lastly I thought I'd share another pressie off my sister-in-law, it's a favourtie author of mine, you should check out the link here   The Crafty Minx

                                              Homemade goodies are always a xmas time treat

                                                   gingerbread always remind me of xmas

                  These freckles were from the Oatlands lolly shop, what is better than homemade freckles!
        
    
                      I'll be back with another blog soon, thought I'd make this one short and sweet :)

  5. The pram looks gorgeous - it will be perfect for getting out with the baby. The cookies look so tasty too and what you call 'Freckles' look like what we call Jazzies over here, I love them! Happy New Year, hope it's the best year ever for you all! :) x
