The end of the year is near

2010

As 2010 comes to a close I have been thinking about the past year.

The last few months have been taken up with the extension.
We cancelled Christmas because of it, the house was not in any state to be decorated.

The rooms will be all finished by the end of January and I look forward to showing you some photos when it's all done.
Although the extension has taken over our lives these past few months, it's not the only thing that has happened this year.

Baking in 2010

I did a bit of baking in 2010.


Lucy's year

Lucy has been photographed hundreds of times this year-as she is every year!

Lucky me!

I have also been very, very lucky and I have been sent some beautiful gifts from my bloggy friends over the year (forgive me if your gift is not pictured, I have hundreds of photos to go through and it took AGES to find these!)

While I was going through my photos I realised I had not done too bad on the craft side this year.

I have done more Arts and Crafts than I thought!


Westminster Abbey, London

We had some lovely days out, a holiday in Shropshire and a couple of days in London too.

Shropshire Hills

Liverpool

Downton Hall Gardens

Spitfire in Haworth

We have said goodbye to some dear friends and pets this year, there have been a few ups and downs but thankfully we have had more smiles than sadness

So this is the end of 2010, I look forward to the fresh new start that the new year brings and all that remains for me to say now is

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL!
