Fun Photo Fun - Candles

We have just returned from a lovely weekend away with my family. Thanks Mum! We have had lots of fun and I have taken many photos and even managed to capture our dune jumping escapades on video. 🙂 Watch this space! Whilst we were there we had a little party to celebrate my nephew’s 11th and Bob’s 2nd birthday. I thought I would use a couple of photos from the party for this week’s Fun Photo Fun. As you probably [click here to read on]

Me & Mine - A Family Portrait Project

I have known when I was going to take my May Me & Mine photo since the beginning of the month. How could I not chose Bob’s birthday? The day that our baby girl turned 2! The day that we had a party with our friends & family. The day that Bob was running around outside until it was time to go to bed. The day that I ate far too many sweets! The day that my husband agreed to [click here to read on]

How To Make Clown Cupcakes

As you know we had a clown themed birthday party for Bob’s 2nd birthday. I have been very busy making many clown creations out of icing. I make cupcakes on a regular basis but I usually frost them with buttercream or spread runny icing on top of them. As I wanted to make clown cupcakes I thought that the easiest way to do this would be to make the tops of them out of fondant icing. This also meant that [click here to read on]

Bob's 2nd Birthday

We have all had a wonderful weekend celebrating Bob’s 2nd birthday. She woke up on Saturday morning to find some presents had appeared in our living room. There was a tricycle (which I can’t wait to watch her master), an easel and lots of other lovely things. We spent a wonderful morning playing with Bob’s new toys and getting ready for our party. In the afternoon our friends arrived and we had a wonderful clown party! We were blessed with [click here to read on]

Fun Photo Fun - Juggling

As regular readers of my blog will know, my baby girl turned 2 on Saturday. Although we have been having a great deal of fun celebrating Bob’s birthday, I haven’t had much time to take photos. For my Fun Photo Fun this week I thought that I would use 2 photos that I captured on Bob’s birthday, just before our guests arrived for the party. Bob’s daddy was teaching her to juggle and I think that she did very well! [click here to read on]

Bob is 2 tomorrow! I can’t believe it! It seems like only yesterday that I was going on long walks and eating pineapple to try to encourage her to join us. As I made a video on her first birthday to celebrate her first year (see The Best Year Of My Life) I thought that I would make one for her second year too. It is a lovely way of recording our memories and it’s wonderful to look back over [click here to read on]

Inspect A Gadget

Money Supermarket contacted me a few weeks ago to ask if I would like to take part in their Inspect A Gadget challenge to try to find the best budget gadgets for 2013. There were 5  gadgets and I could choose which one I would like to test.. One of these was a tablet. This was perfect timing as my iPad is broken. Bob stood on it a while ago and, instead of paying over £100 to fix it through [click here to read on]
