More signs of spring and a party

Blimey where has that week gone? I've been pretty busy lately.We had a family party for Mother in law at the weekend and I woke up on the morning of the party with the worst migraine ever and the more I tried to make it go away the more stresed I got and the more it banged.You know when you get that feeling where you just can't relax and it won't go? Anyway,himself went over to help set up etc and I managed to get there for when it started at 2 o'clock.It all went very well and was held in a lovely room at the college where my sister in law works.I made Mum in law a card which was based on one that was on show at 'Pickleberry Papercrafts ' when we went down for a visit recently.It was a Valentine card and when I saw it I thought the little girl decoupage would be perfect for a 90th birthday.
I managed to take a lot of photographs but some didn't come out very well, not being the best with a camera I'm not good with lighting but at least we have some nice memories for maybe a scrapbook later.I loved one that I took of two of my sons my Dad and other half,real shame the middle son wasn't in it though,great to get them ALL smiling!
On another note,I'm having some days off this week so am loving being able to crochet my blanket, it's growing lots,and it was sunny yesterday and how lovely to see the Snowdrops peeping through.
