Life is mostly froth and bubbles.

 

We all lost half an hour in the sun today blowing bubbles. Life is mostly froth and bubbles seems like a good phrase today;

April Froth & Bubbles

I advised Alex to blow more softly and steadily and he listened!

That was the bubbles, the rest of the froth was in a lovely trip up to Exmoor with Mum, Dad, Louis, Alex, Fudge & Minty. Dad felt a lot better and was really chirpy today. The doc got the pain under control yesterday; he had 9 hours sleep and was able to eat his weetabix this morning so he was good to go for a trip out!

All of them under coercion…

I really told the dogs off for not looking at the camera, but they didn’t listen, as you can see!

Alex and I also went to see Rio at the cinema, you’ll be pleased to know I didn’t take the camera.

I also made cakes.

The poor chick didn’t know the cake I sat him on was burnt-ish,

he looks so proud I couldn’t bring myself to.

  4. Oh Jen, you've done so well here - all the photos are fab too, I especially like the one of the boys running along like that - I hope you are going to scrap that too. The bubbles layout is fab and so is your journalling. It looks a great day.

  12. Hi Jennie. I followed your link from the BB4S class. I was really drawn in by your opening sentence (We all lost half an hour in the sun today blowing bubbles.) What a great way to start a post. I personally love the mixture of a scrapbook layout and some amazing photos!
