Busy Times

It is only 6 more days to the wedding, when my beautiful daughter marries the man she loves and they start a new life together, exciting times.  It is the final fitting for the suits tomorrow and the final meeting with the wedding planner at the venue.  The dogs go to a friend of ours for the weekend on Thursday and the flowers are to be collected for the  arrangements for the vases.  The bouquets, buttonholes and church flower arrangements the florist is doing.  We seem to have everything under control.

Christmas gifts are made I still have some to package this week. I need to get cards wrote as some of them need to be posted, although they are all made.  I do need to check what the last day is for posting to America.  I want to get some baking done for the freezer but I am not putting myself under pressure this week.  I also like a couple of stews/casseroles in the freezer so they can be just heated up when time is at a premium.

Although busy I have still made time for a bit of crochet, I have been making headbands for some charity boxes and for gifts.  Here is a selection of the ones I have made.





I have a busy few weeks with the wedding and looking after my Grandson which I am really excited about so I may not have the time to blog or to leave comments, I will catch up with everyone when I can.
 
See you soon.
