Tara's big reveal no.1 for August kit....

Well TAra is away in Donegal - she is going to take a boat to Tory Island and wants the king of Tory Island to shake Ethan's hand - i think she is mad - who is this self-proclaimed king anyway???? Did see a documentary about him once - anyway thats got nothing to do with my post really - while she is away I am taking the liberty of posting her layout for our August kit!

Here it is: Ethan, the new king of tory island.... or something!

winner of our July layout is....

Bridget! Well done B - here's your winning entry as chosen by Tara:




Well busy things going on here - Tara is away on holiday for a week now, and we did our market stall y'day in Belfast - was great fun - baby Ethan even got in on the action, I thought if I dangled him over the stall we might attract more folks but Tara was having none of it.... then we had a trip to hospital overnight with Daithi and his wheezing from his cold - not very pleasant at all but thankfully we are back home again today....

another sneaky from Sam....

What Your Taste in Chocolate Says About You

You are sophisticated, modern, and high class. Your taste is refined, but you are not picky. You are often the first to try something new. You are fun loving, outgoing, and very social. You love meeting new people and celebrating. You can be a bit of a fair weather friend. You don't like bad news or drama. You love being around people. Friendships are important to you. You feel lost when you're by yourself... so you tend to avoid being alone.
