So a Big Thank You for all your beautiful cards and gifts and also for all your good wishes by email or comments - I really do appreciate them all !! :-))


My daughter also got me some lovely Kasbah Glass Fairy Lights which are for when I get my room sorted out - which could take until my 60th at the rate I'm going!! LOL. I also got quite a few paper pads off family and friends so I'm looking forward to using them very soon! I also got some decoupage sheets and toppers. I love doing decoupage and am determined to do more!!!


We took some photos but I am paranoid about my thinning hair and being overweight!!! and when anyone points a camera at me these days, I am like Chandler off Friends!! I pull very strange faces...


When we saw this in the Viewfinder we were crying with laughter!!!!! I look like Benny Hill !! 


Benny Hill impression!

Can't believe how weak I am nowadays - my hands were shaking holding this bottle!!!

My Precious! LOL

These are some photos that we took in the garden - it was a beautiful sunny day!!

My lovely daughter Christina!

Chrissie and me

Chrissie and me

Me (nice photo but still a bit 'Chandler' LOL )

The fun really started when we tried to open the Champagne. I am usually the one who opens any bubbly in our house, but I was too weak!!!!!! that cork just didn't want to pop!!! LOL Chrissie was waiting to get a photo of the actual 'popping' but she just ended up with a load of photos of me straining and groaning!!! ROFL and she came to the rescue in the end and got the blighter out!!!


Hope you are all having a lovely week and enjoying the sunshine!! :-)
Ok gonna Publish it now before I chicken out..... LOL
Love n Hugs!

Sue your pictures are fabulous you look so happy and enjoying yourself! The video is hilarious and I sat here smiling my head off at it!! Your hair looks lovely I don't know what you are worried about and you certainly don't look overweight to me, I think we ladies of a certain age are a bit curvier than the stick insects you see on the catwalks but we've got the families to show for it!! Your daughter looks lovely and you both look so happy. Thanks for sharing you brightened up my day (I'm still smiling) xx
