We've had a bit of a shaky start to 2013 and for a while there it wasn't looking like it was going to be the great year that we were hoping for but this week things are definitely looking up.We're now all recovered from the awful bug that we had over Christmas (although poor Miss Frugal now has a cold and a dodgy tooth to contend with) and yesterday we had some excellent news that means that the waiting game we've been playing since New Years Eve is now over and everything's OK again (cryptic I know....)So when I saw that the theme for the gallery this week was new, I thought I'd share … [Read more...]

The Gallery – the cutest eyes in the world….
My little Buddy is two this week so when I saw that the theme of this week's gallery was 'eyes', I decided it was the perfect opportunity to share lots of pictures of him with you all seeing as he's got the most expressive eyes I've ever known a dog to have (obviously this could be a little biased as he's mine)....You can tell when what mood he's in just by looking into his little puppy dog eyes! We bought Buddy for Miss Frugal really as she's being asking for a dog for as long as I can remember. When we made the decision to get a dog, we did a lot of research into what sort of dog we … [Read more...]
The Gallery – Dear Beautiful Daughter….
To my beautiful daughter, I can't believe you're 10 this week. You seem to have grown up so fast - from a chubby smiley baby to the confident happy young lady that you are now. I know you're looking forward to the next stage of your childhood - you've told me often enough lately just how important a 10th birthday is as you're almost a teenager when you hit hose double figures. It makes me a little sad though, to know that you're growing up and that one day soon, you won't need me as much as you do right now. I don't ever want you to stop telling me your little secrets but I know you … [Read more...]
The Gallery – Fear and Elation….
When I saw that the theme for this week's Gallery was emotion, I decided to go through my photos and make a little collage showing my favourite emotion - Happy ;-)I'm generally a very happy, positive type of person and I really believe that life is too short to be sad for long or to worry about things you have no control over. I spend a lot of time making sure that my children have a happy childhood and we have a lot of happy smiley photos showing fun times that we've had. I found so many photos and even got as far as putting them together in a pretty collage in Picmonkey and then I came … [Read more...]
The Gallery – Hands….
I was torn this week between a picture I took ages ago and one that I took last week when we were on holiday - so I decided on a two for one special today ;-)This is the one I took last week - I ordered waffles and strawberries for breakfast and naturally, like any blogger would do, I got out my camera to take a photo before eating it. From pressing the button to take the picture to the picture actually being taken, this little hand appeared, helping itself to my breakfast!Here's the other picture I wanted to share, brother and sister holding hands and looking after each other. I … [Read more...]
The Gallery – Light….
I know I'm a day late but I had a marathon baking session yesterday for a charity bake sale today and I really wanted to join in with this week's Gallery because I love the theme 'Light'. Here's a few of my favourites....This year I'm determined to learn to use light better in my photography, at the minute I just click and hope for the best :-) … [Read more...]
