Busy Busy Busy. A week in iphone pictures.

I hate being so busy that I get behind with blogging and reading all of your lovely blogs but sometimes life just gets in the way, especially with end of term Easter Bonnet Parades, Muscial Concerts and a garden that seems to have taken on a life of its own in the last 12 months which meant that we spent most of last weeks sunny days cutting down enormous trees and shrubs, which has left my garden looking a complete bare mess! But on the upside my next door neighbour now tells me that her washing is finally getting dry!  Seriously, I can't believe my tree's were bigger than the sun.........and we also get to see her conservatory, its been so long, I almost forgot she had one!

OH was helped by 70 yr old neighbour for a bit of lumber-jacking.

Little Man came second in his Easter Parade last Friday.  It was such a relief that Years 5 and 6 only had to make a card or decorate an egg, his days of wear hats covered in chicks, twigs and feathers are SO over.  Luckily for him, Uni Girl (the artistic one in the family) was home and on hand to supervise and share ideas.  Sadly for Little Man this meant that he had to split his prize of a Cadburys Flake Easter Egg in half and share it with her!
Hard to believe that this is his final year at Primary and that he will be off to Grammar School and having to get a school bus come September!

Saturday saw me off to London for the Ideal Home Exhibition and what a load of rubbish that was, I was pleased I got the tickets for free, I would have been fuming overwise!  There really wasn't much inspiration to be had and the only thing I quite liked was the "Ikea House" but you are better off just walking around Ikea where there are far more room layouts than in 4 bedroom show home! Boring, Boring, Boring..........so much so, I wanted to get in this lovely bed and stay there for the rest of the day!

So after we had queued up for hours to enter pretend houses which were of no interest what so ever, we headed off to Knightsbridge to have a look around the shops.  I had a little stroke of a Celine Trapeze bag in Harrods but didn't dare take a photograph instore in case I got chucked out by security, but this is the one, just about to be bought by a Twitter chum.........

Isn't she the most gorgeous thing you have ever seen? Well apart from a 2.55 obviously!

Then it was off to Harvey Nic's for a try on of the new Chanel Sunglasses with the chain arms.  Its pretty hard to get a good idea of how they look when they have that poxy security tag slap bang in the middle of the bridge, meaning that they don't really sit properly and are about 1/2 inch away from your face, but you get the idea!  It was about 5pm by the time I got these beauties on and I was tired and hungry, which meant that even I could not muster as much enthusiasm for Chanel as I normally do, but they have made their way to the top of my wish list, I seriously don't think I could go to Marbs without them if I'm honest!

They come with different coloured lenses and arms but I think I am going for mirrored lenses and white arms.

We finished off our day with my favourite Katsu Curry in Wagamama's as my friend had never eaten in there. 

Nom Nom

I swear I take more pictures of the Pug than I did of the kids when they were babies and I just have to add this gorgeous pic of our boy that Claudia took on my iphone because he just looks so adorable and I think the photo looks really professional don't you?

Pug-a-licious

 So Half Term is finally here and sadly this week isn't shaping up to be much better in the "busy" stakes, its been one big round of work, dentist, hair appointments, housework, washing and ironing. I can't wait for Friday if I'm honest and some quality time with LM next week!

Have you been trying on Sunglasses for summer yet?
