I missed this!

Taking E to school this morning, H helps and then we went off to "Music with Nana"

The wonders of technology!

H playing Fireman Sam on my iPad - bless!

Nearly on the final flight

Just one hour to go until I start the final leg of my journey home. Time has flown here in Seattle, sitting outside S10 waiting to board!

In Seattle!

Got a long layover (8hrs) in Seattle, thankfully the amazing staff @ the Alaska Board Room are so helpful and I get to stay here until I need to get on my BA flight to London Heathrow!

Beaded Brooch Class

We had a great time beading our felt brooches, everyone's is so different, had a blast!

Class One for Girls' Art Party Weekend

 

Remember the class kits I put together for the Girls' Art Party Weekend being held whilst I'm in Oregon -

Well these are some examples of what they will be making (or very similar as it depends on each girl's take on the kit and the beads they use!)

Class Two For Girls' Art Party Weekend

 

Take 1 sheet of A4 cardstock for cover, a small piece of Bind-it-All wire, 7 Rainbow coloured envelopes, with 7 rainbow coloured pieces of  cardstock for inserts, 9 pieces of coordinated paper for embellishment , ribbons, charm, buttons, brads, flowers & punched butterfly and you can make a Rainbow Book to keep notes, receipts, hidden journaling and photos in!

 

 

Girls arrive for Girls' Art Party Weekend

Arrivals

Our visit to Bandon, Oregon

Today we visited the coast, Bandon to be exact, had fish & chips for lunch, walked on the beach, dipped my toes in the pacific ocean and had a great day, thanks to Nancy for organising this and Kathy for the great time x

Food shopping & preparation

After a super mega shop for food for the coming event this weekend (Girls' Art Party) we prepared 2 kinds of soup and ground turkey as a topping for the baked potatoes! It was an epic day and I needed a drink!

Cocktail Time

After a long session of preparing food for our forthcoming Girls' Art Party weekend, we made it cocktail time!
