Yummy!

I used to bake all the time with my Mum and Grandmas , and Nanna. But it got put to the bottom of my to do list for a long time. Then I decided i would make an old school favorite as a suprise for my hubby..... chocolate concrete and I was very impressed with myself!!
The hubster saw it when he got in from work and stole a bit before I took a picture!! 
The girls wanted to go there Nannas today while me and Dave did some food and supply shopping but he got a firecall and ended up been out too long to do anything so i stayed there and had a cuppa and watched the girls use there nan as a ride! hehe ..the things we do to make kids happy :) (poor nanna)

Graces last day at Nursery!!!

This is my beautiful little lady! After her last day at nursery! I cannot belive how quick it has gone...we went to go and get her and i was gutted to find out that her group teacher wasn't there as she had been called away to an emergency (dont know what it was) but the other teachers apoligized on her behalf and said that she will be so so sad that she hasnt been able to say goodbye. Luckily she will still be there when Grace goes back so she will be able to say the odd hello!!
When i got home i got all the pictures (well i have kept a few special ones ) out and put them in a box and taped it up....full of all the lovely pictures etc from her first ever year at school....god i cant actually belive it thinking about it as i am w
riting. makes me feel sad....her next year will be so different. bless her. Dont know what i am going to do without her FIVE days a week!!
