Firstly I'd like to thank everyone who left me a comment encouraging me with my JYC, it so appreciated it. I'm loving it, I'm trying to keep up on a daily basis as much as I can. Today's is about past Christmases, and I need some photos from my childhood, so hopefully Mum and Dad are bringing some with them at the end of the week. Here are some promised pictures. I still need to take quite a few photos of the previous pages, but the light has been poor today, will try again tomorrow.



The story or Manifesto, I'm keeping to it so far.



We had such a busy weekend. On Saturday Les dropped me of at the Bromsgrove crop, I haven't been for several months (due to commitments), but I do enjoy going they are such a nice bunch of ladies. I managed to get rather a lot and finished including Charlotte's Birthday card ready for next week. I also took part in Debs card class which was ace, such funky designs with great ideas.

Yesterday was spent at IKEA and picking a Christmas tree, it only took 20 minutes which is pretty good for us. As usual it's big but we love it. Charlotte loved putting all the decorations on it, it's probably the first year that she didn't get bored half way through.

This is the one!!



Charlotte needed a little helping hand with the star, it was so tall we had to chop a bit off the top!!



The finished tree, the photo's a little dark as it was taken in the dark.



I'm trying out some different photo's, I was quite pleased with this one although it needs to be a bit crisper, I even managed to get in the picture too!!



It's Charlotte's big day at school tomorrow. It's the first showing of the Christmas production, I'm extremely nervous for her. She has had several wobbles over the past week and isn't happy to stand on the stage. So they have opted for her to sit on a bench in front of the stage. Apparently she done her lines fine in front of the rest of the school. I've got everything crossed for her that it goes smoothly.

Right I'm off to wrap some presents. Thanks for stopping by.
