High points of the month were Beth's 30th birthday. How DARE my baby be 30!!! I remember when she was born, and it isn't THAT long ago - or pehaps it is. . .
Anyway, here she is, bless her!
The other main event of the month was my ex-mother-in-law's 90th birthday. i learned long ago that you never get rid of a mother-in-law, especially if your children are her grandchildren, and you have a conscience! Not quite sure why Alan and I count as "close family" to be invited to her lunch party, but we were, and we went, and most of her family are really pleasant people you could get on with anywhere. She's a bit of a liability, and her elder son is a class-A pratt, but his very sweet Peruvian wife keeps him in check.
This is a picture of the whole bang-shoot of them - minus Alan and myself - who took the photographs. One old bird, plus her two sons, and two step-children,7 of 10 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren, plus various partners, hangers-on, and dogs!!
Actually, when I look, various people have managed to escape, but it's still quite a heap of people to treat to lunch - thanks to my ex-BIL and his family!!Oh, and just to prove I haven't stopped crafting, here is my Easter tree, feathers added after seeing Anso's
- and my first layout from the Design Collective, courtesy of the lovely Kirsty Wiseman
Beth's crop is catching up with me, so I must get on with the class layout for that. . .
I shall return - don't know when (two famous wartime quotes in one - lucky you!!)
