ANOTHER Bloghop.....

.....this time over at  SCRAPBOOK CHALLENGES. It was their 'Seasons of Change' Bloghop, introducing the new DT and saying farewell to the outgoing DT.


The sketch created for the Bloghop was this:



and this is my take on it


These are my favourite pics of Christmas Morning..the look on DD's face was priceless...and between dad and I we managed to get from the 'Is this REALLY hungry Hippos?' to starting to play with it!!

Hope you're having a great weekend...I have just seen DH off at the airport and returned to my house of invalids. Mum was very sick last night and still doesn't feel too good...and poor dad caught his finger in the car door two nights ago, and is still in pain from that. Fortunately, Mum's friend Barbara (who used to be a nurse) arrived at the beginning of the week, and she has been able to dress dad's finger...I DO mean fortunately, because mum and I would have been hopeless on our own!! We are neither good at dealing with blood, nor being terribly gentle!

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you

    Adore this layout! I love those moments as well. I hope you mom is feeling much better after a night's sleep. Your poor dad, I've done that and it stays quite sore for a number of days :(

    Love your take on the sketch here Alison! Just wondering what Hungry Hippos is?? Sorry to hear that you have a house of invalids - I am not a very tolerant nurse...
