Sleepy Days

Well  on Sunday and we basically did nothing at all!!! sometimes thats really nice , to have no plans or tasks to do. I did Blog in the morning and decided to make something that would be done by the evening, and i did! I made a rainbow pot holder. A few ends to weave in and it needs blocking, but it looks great on the table.

These last few days, for no reason i have felt soooo tired, i can barely keep my eyes open, i have done the minimum i have to do, i have really appreciated that Fred was at Nursery on Monday and Alex likes a nap at about 10.30 for a couple of hours and have taken advantage of that and had a nap myself!!! Can't remember the last time i dd that, i must have needed it or maybe its the hayfever, because i have suffered a lot with it this year or perhaps it thats i have cut even more calories out in order to lose soem weight and now i really am on the bare minimum, i can manage on and run round after the kids and walk everywhere ( 4 and 1/2 hours walking yesterday out and about, normally its 3 hours per day)

Who knows, but i am so lethargic this week and even this weeks task which is making new costumes for the next gala, hasn't excited me. It as basically been left till today and i ave just finished them and sat down, i will wait till tomorrow when the kids are wearing them to take pictures, i am really pleased with them though

Last weekend we went to Hambleton Gala, this has to be one of my favorites, it was last year and this year, after nearly being cancelled, i was even better, they quickly did the formal stuff then onto party games and dances, it was just great for the kids, it was similar to what i had wanted for our gala, This year they Chose to have a Gala King which i think is the first time its been done round here, its got Ewan thinking anyway!  To top the day off our Queen won Best Queen and our Princess Best Princess!!! and our Happy Meal came 2nd in Group and 2nd in best overall exhibit! 1st went to a local nursery, and all the littlies were dressed as flowers fairies and bumble bees, you just can't compete with that! so we ave so far in the galas we have visited got a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd! Thats why we decided to have a change of costume.



Sat waiting, we couldn't put Alex's costume on till the last minute as it breaks it

Ewan kept hiding in his meal box


Dancing, and Fred won a prize, that Ali in the blue


He used to hate mascots but since Haven he loves them

Getting his medal from the Mayor and Mayress.
Another reason we have made new costumes is that they attended our Gala, so they reconzse me and they ave been judges at most of the Galas in Wyre, so we are likely to see them again and its a bit embarrassing keep going in to the same judges with the same costumes

Hambleton Gala King, isn't he great!

Our Queen Laura

and our Princess Emilie


Its great we really are enjoying going to them all, Preesall and Knott End tomorrow, then just 2 more and our Gala season will be over for another year

Bye Emma xx
