HAPPY NEW YEAR

Hi All,
So sorry I haven't written much of late, I have had a lot on my mind and needed to clear my head for a while.
New Year finds us reflecting on past times and I for one feel very blessed at the moment, that my family and friends are well.
I am off to Northern Ireland next Friday, to my Sister in Law's wedding, which could quite easily have been her funeral, as she has just recovered from lung cancer, thank goodness.
I am to be a bridesmaid again next Christmas, as my Sister is to be married to a very gorgeous young Mr Darcy.
Steven, as you may know, is joining a boyband next week and I am REALLY excited for him. So, going to feel very glamourous being a boyband member's Mum.
Still working on the Granny thing. My Son and Daughter in Law aren't quite ready to take the plunge yet but hopefully, it WILL happen.

All that remains is for me to wish everyone A VERY VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR .

Hope it is filled with happiness, comfort, and health for you all.

See you in 2007...  God bless..

Steve's audition

Yes, you guessed it, he's the little one on the left. The one beside him is his big Brother, Adam.

This is a little dedication to Steve, in honour of his audition today.

He was sooo nervous, which is always good because adrenalin works in your favour.

Will let you know how it goes.

Peggydini

Hi all,

A few more pics of today's events.

Adrian and I have worked really hard all day to make some gates to keep the dogs out of the garden.

Peggy has a habit of falling into the pond whenever possible, so we thought the gates were a great idea.

We let them out onto the decking to see if they liked the gates and OH NO !! turned my back and ...... Peggy can fit between the spindles and gets into the garden.

Oh well, back to the drawing board I guess.

Need to put the spindles closer together me thinks.

See you all later peeps.

Love and hugs  Pat  x x x

Peggy's 1st hair cut.

Hi all,

Just wanted to share Peggy's first haircut with you.

I know you like me to keep you informed of Peggy's progress.

Hasn't she grown up ?

She's six months old in a few days.

Her 1st puppy tooth came out last night too, so I'm expecting more toy chewing over the next few months.

She's such a sweetie and has a wonderful nature with her too. Not an ounce of aggression there.

She wears a car seat belt too, now she's big enough.

Just like to welcome Steve back too, after his recent illness. It's great to read you again Ste. Love you so much.

Well, off for now, kitchen still being re furbished. Will post pics as soon as I can.

Love and hugs to you all.

Pat.  x x x x

My new Nephew

Just wanted to share my new baby Nephew with you.

He was born yesterday, third of November, at 4.15 pm.

He weighed in at 4lbs 2 ounces, bless him.

Not sure about his name yet. At the moment he's called Archie.

About to be a Great Aunt again any day now.

Altogether I have 43 Nephews and Nieces and 15 Great Nephews and Nieces.

Getting bigger all the time.

MY BOYS

IVE BEEN IN A LONELY PLACE

ITS COLD AND UNFORGIVING

IVE BEEN LOST IN OUTER SPACE

INSTEAD OF OUT THERE, LIVING

MY HEART'S BEEN PRISONER TO MY LIFE

MY THOUGHTS HAD LOST ALL CARING

I WAS TRAPPED IN ANOTHER LIFE

A LIFE SO UNFORBEARING

BUT THROUGH THE TEARS AND MIST AND SADNESS

TWO STARS HAVE SHONE THROUGHOUT

NOW COME SMILES AND TEARS OF GLADNESS

I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT

TWO LIGHTS AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL OF LIFE

TWO FLARES THAT SHOWED ME THE WAY

TO PUT RIGHT BEHIND ME THE STRUGGLE AND STRIFE

AND LIVE THIS GREAT LIFE, FOR TODAY.
