Where did the last week go?

It has all been a bit busy in the Wood household, but we have had a lovely time over Christmas and I was thoroughly spoilt with lots of lovely pressies.  I was bought a very snazzy touch screen phone, by my dear hubby.  He has been quite amused by my lack of touch screen knowledge, as I am still looking for the proper buttons to push and not using the screen :-)

My dear little angel Eloise went shopping with her Nanny just before Christmas.  She gave me a lovely pair of pink fluffy slippers, and a gorgeous furry blanket - paid with out of her own pocket money.  She is such a sweetie.  Tim tried to give her some money to use, so she could keep her money, but she wasn't having any of it.

I also now have some lovely crafty goodies - lush 12 by 12 papers, lacey ribbons, charms, buttons, chipboard flowers, which all came from Faye.  I am determined that they will be played with today!

We had a lovely day yesterday, the highlight of which has to be the game 'How many people can you fit around the dining room table!'  Seems to be a family favourite at this time of year.  We don't have much room in our kitchen at the best of times, let alone when we are trying to squeeze in 9 people as well - but it was fun!

The rain is falling down in Devon at the moment, which means that I am going a little deaf, as I craft in the conservatory - good job you don't need your hearing for that eh :-)
