My crafty planning begins....

So invitations are out, this party is happening :-) Bella is very excited about her cooking party celebrating her 7th birthday!

For the table they will eat at, i am making it very pretty :-) I have sewed up a table runner in the above purple material and purchased the other matching items!

Below is the water bottles that i covered with a pretty label! This is such a simple but effective thing to do for a party!

The next task is to sew up the aprons and work out the recipe instructions :-) I am having lots of fun planning for this party!

So out go the invitations......

Only 3 weeks till Bella's 7th Birthday Party. Ryan and Bella have to take turns on party years so this is her turn to have a party.

It's decided that this year will be a cooking party for her & 7 friends :-) (i have some lovely mummy helpers coming along too)

The inspiration for this party is coming from a lovely book by Annabel Karmel - Mummy & Me Cookbook.

Above is the photo of the cute invitations on wooden spooons. I created the cupcake shape and printed them on pretty papers. I am looking forward to hearing how Bella's friends liked the invitations. Bella is so excited about giving them out today to her friends :-)

I will blog more about the decorations and party food and games :-)

Have a great day!!

LOVE

This is some words that were said at my Wedding, i love them & will never forget thier beauty xx

Love is what Valentines day is really all about celebrating. Not about all the materialistic gifts out in the shops to buy for the ones we love.

So next year i am going to make some new traditions for our family :-) I'll have 12 months to come up with some great idea's :-)

My Meltdown...Update 3

Task 3

Organise, File and spreadsheet all of my recipts. I started doing this last year and as of June/July this year i have been very slack so this afternoon & tonight i have successfully entered all the recipts into my spreadsheets.

Feels great to have another part of my life organised. I have no real plan for this 'getting myself out of meltdown' but i am just going along with whatever presents it self to me. I think i should form a plan but i really just don't know where to start.....i am still feeling so lost. I think i need help.

Next step will be to go into the sisterhood and chat to some other sunny mummys and get some advice.

Stay tuned for my next update.....

My Meltdown...Update 2

Task 2.

I decided yesterday that my task was to get through the 3 baskets of Ironing that has piled up since November as i realised that was the last time that i did my weekly attempt at ironing.

Feels great now that they are done!! My Bedroom is also improved now!! Feel slightly more postitve, but still a more to get done before i feel that weight lifted......

Not sure what Task 3 is yet, but i'll report in on that when i do it!!

My Meltdown...Update 1

I am acknowledging that i am having a meltdown..........

Task No. 1

I need to clean out and remove my size 14 clothes that i will not be fitting into right away. Sadly i am in no money position to pass on to charity so i have to come up with some storage in my garage for them till i can fit into them again!!

I keep seeing them in my wardrobe and they are adding to the stress as i see them and think negative thoughts because i know i can't fit into them.

As said by Sunny Mummy Stacey tonight i need to change my Negative Nelly into Positve Penny...

I will have to take task 1 and come up with task 2 tommorow!!!
