Something To Share!

Good Morning!
I hope all of you who are in the UK have kept safe during this windy weather! It seemed to have gone up a notch yesterday and I was just so glad my bedroom windows seemed secure lol However the rain sounding like Golf Balls did make me question that a few times lol

Today I don't have a card to share with you but I do have something! I thought I would share with you the lovely bundle of goodies that arrived for me yesterday from my Creative Inspirations Teamie Mona! Each year I organise a Secret Santa for my team but she couldn't join in with the last one due to going on holiday so I offered to do a New Year swap to make up for it! This is what I received :)
Aren't I lucky!


Secondly I thought I would share some photo's of Millie & Hollie seeing it has been a while since I last did ... I did take more than this but I didn't want to bombard you with too many lol


Millie & Hollie - " Which way do I look?"


Hollie deciding to yawn mid take!


Millie & Hollie looking innocent & cute for once .... trust me they're not! lol

Thanks for popping by & I hope I didn't bore you too much! lol
Happy Crafting!
