Birthday and Easter

Hello there - I hope you have had a lovely Easter weekend.  Our Easter started with my son celebrating his 40th birthday on Thursday (I don't know how my youngest child can be that age) as the time and years have flown by.  We had a family meal earlier in the week that was rounded off with some birthday cake and candles



 

 

The day finally arrived and he had lots of surprises throughout the day

 

 

 

 

Balloons, presents and another cake

 

 

 

My friend Sarah made his cake as I asked her

and Sean made some badges for us to wear out -

Great minds thinking alike there!!

 

 

I wonder what he had to open here

 

 

Well I had this book for Christmas - so maybe he had some of these

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here they all are and I absolutely loved making them

I have since made another ten different ones for friends children

and friends alike.  I am certain there are going to be more made.

So the birthday was over and we moved onto Easter.

I made Easter cards

 

 

I made bunnies for my Easter tree

 

I made a tea cosy for an Easter gift

 

 

I ate one of these

 

 

Today has been a button day

 

 

Love, love, loving these buttons on cards

 

 

These are now coming off my hook

Watch this space!

 

Thanks for popping by
