Second day of snow sal

here is my second day of my snow sal being laid up with this ankle i guess theres not much else left for me to do really!!!

First fiish of 2010

Here she is my halloween fairy that seems to have taken sooooooo long to acually get completed lol!!! My stitching time has seemed so far and few between grasped moments that i can hardly believe i am able to show the completed project at long last!! I am however a little disapointed that i have been unable to show you how sparkly and well beaded she is the photo just doest seem to do her much justice at all but at least you get to see her finally. Thankyou Louise for sending me the mchart so so much and thankyou Tonya for the gv from which i was able to get all the beads :-)

Happy birthday wishes

Happy new year!!!

I just wanted to wish you all a very happy healthy and love filled 2010!!!!!!!

2009 hasnt been a bad year for me i traveled with my youngest son to a world championships in a sport he had only been doing 6 months when he became a double welsh champion and then won a world bronze medal after just a year he has also done 4 belts and will be going for his fifth in february he has also won several other trophoes from competitions i wish him all the luck with all future contests we are all VERY proud of him well done Leon xx

Jake has done very well with his exams and got to choose all his subjects for his gcses being top band in school and working hard to keep himself there is something we are also all VERY proud of and he is still trying to learn to play guitar im sure he will get there one day lol!!!

At the end of 2009 Donnys eyes seem to be improving he can see a lot more close up out of one eye but still just a tiny glipse of colour out of the other at the moment so it seems a much brighter path he is heading along so thats all good too.

I have had a good year i enjoyed treaveling with Leon and the team and even walked out as part of the team at the world championships that was something else lol!!! I have achived my first kickboxing belt even thought it was something i never thought i would do and i am now attending classes three times a week hopefully during 2010 it will help me shape up more ..hopefully ..mind you so would laying off the crisps and wine but i cant do that lol!!! i havent done as much as i would of liked to on the craft side but with the house getting a make over and Donny and the boys to take care of i guess i just havent had the time gonna try to do more though new year new start..........

have fun tonight everyone but please stay safe xxxx

Its almost time for santa

I can hardly believe it is christmas eve already where has this year gone wow it just seems to go quicker and quicker with each year it realy does. We are almost all ready here all the shopping is done and now its just time to spend time with my boys and relax. I would like to say a big thankyou to all those who took the time and effort in sebnding me a christmas card i seem to always be sending out some sort of card to someone lol but the prices are getting silly now with the post office so this will be the last year i make an effort to send to someone who doesnt have the time to send one to me it just doesnt seem like making the effort of making the card to some people who dont even say thankyou sometimes is worth the effort a bit harsh maybe....yes i know its the time for giving but thaankyou aways goes a long way hey.

Thankyou Rose for sending me these lovely gifts i really wasnt expecting them so it makes it so special that you thought of me this way i really do hope you and John have a wonderful holidays together.
And thankyou Nicky for the wonderful gifts that you sent me they are under my tree untill tomorrow morning and i cant hardly wait to see what i have hun xxx

This years christmas cards

Here are the christmas cards i made for my sons for christmas the one on the left os for Leon as he is always the joker of the two boys even though both cards are funny this one made me laugh the most when i first found the design and i knew i HAD to make them into cards for my boys. The one on the right is for Jake as this is the type of thing he would do when taking a photo lol xx.It had been a very long while since i picked up a needle and i did really enjoy stitching these cards i really need to try make more time to do more as i have really missed it so much.

When i first seen this design in cross stitcher i had to stitch it into a card for my dh for xmas but i did not count on having to do it twice so bewarned now!!!!!!! if you are stitching it for anyone who is an avid liverpool fc supporter just dont do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
apartantly its an everton mont and its the last thing they want lol so i had to re do it so it acually looked like a humbug lol x

I did it!!!

Here i am being awarded my red belt. I was so nervous but at the same time happy i managed to acually do something by myself for myself :-)

Another kickboxing competition

This sunday our club traveled upto Cardiff for a kickboxing competition. Donny travelled up with Leon and the coach and his daughter and her boyfriend and i satyed home with Jake and went to help Rachel out with the kickboxing club. Leon competed in two events the first was point scoring . This isnt Leons strongest one and he won silver. Unfortunitly after traveling all they way up the three boys pictures who are all in our club had to all fight each other, But they all did very well.
The second fight that Leon was in is the light contitnuous which is his stronger one. Here he won a gold and we are very very proud of him.Hmmmm think im gonna have to buy a bigger cupbiard though as together with his and Jakes rugby awards im gonna start running out of space lol!!!!

Tonights the night

As i write this my hands are shaking im so so nervous i dont know why i really dont!!! its not like im the only one whos going to be there doing it almost the whole room is afterall but i just cant escape the knot that is tightening in my stomach the more today turns closer into this evening. This was never part of the plan then again none of it really was from the start so i didnt plan on this happening at all!!! Incase you are wondering i am standing up tonight in a room full of people and performing my kata to try and get my red belt in kickboxing and i am dreading every minute of it!!!! I stood up in front of all the people that are going to be there and a whole lot more singing at the karaoke party but this....this is so so different!!!!!! Please wish me luck i will find out on wednesday how i did xxx

parents evening

Tonight was Leons turn to shine as it was his parents evening the only thing is with his world championships and all the time he has had off ill since weve been back there really wasnt much they can tell me apart from he is a really clever boy and deserves his place in the top set where he is. His only downfall is he likes to chat a bit too much lol sounds just like his mum hey!!!! xx Now we just have to wait for Jakes.

deck the halls!!!!!!!

Tonight is our town carnival night, We have a procession of brightly lite floats fireworks and the turning on of our town lights. But as friday is also our kickboxing night we didnt go as it was raining and freeing cold and with Leon and myself just getting over this flu and chest infections we have had since returning home from Dublin this proberly was the best idea all round so we decided although our carnival was a week earlier this year we would still do up our home ready for the coming holidays. So here are some pictures of our tree after my wonderful sons decided to decorate it for us. I hope you enjoy looking Merry Christmas xxxxx

Back to Wales

Here are team wales photo taken at the wkc world championships and if you look closly enough you will be bale to see Leon in the front row wearing his fighting kit and me in the back row lol

As a part of the team i had to be in the photo and the prosession it was quite a strange thing to do i have to admit not being an acual fighter but it was a very brilliant thing to do to and i loved every moment of it.
Out of such a small team i am very happy to say we were lucky enough to come homw with 5 medals and i am very proud to say that Leon was one of those who did a fantastic job and brought home a medal here he is
i have uploaded lots of photos of the fighting and dublin to my multiply for you to go take a look at we had a wonderful time and are looking forward to the welsh qualifiers next march when we will find out if Leon will be going to Holland next year x

Happy Halloween!!!!

And we are off!!!

I can hardly believe we will be leaving for Dublin tomorrow night and i am still so scared of getting on the boat you wouldnt believe!!!! i guess as it is the middle of the night i am even more nervous of the 3 and a half hour sea crossing as i wont even be able to look out!!! we are leaving Llanelli at 11pm and will be arriving at the weighing at the hotel where the fighting will be taking place at 10.30am the next moring. Leon is all excited but is also a bit nervous of getting onto the boat i am just worried about leaving Donny and Jake at home but i am hopeful all will go well i hope you all have a great halloween take care and will speak to you all soon xxxx

Look at Leons hair!!!

Yes with just a week to go before we are off to dublin Leon decided he wanted to have some thing special done with his hair and i think it just looks fantastic!!! what do you all think xxx
