Hi Everyone
I'm having a bit of a lazy day today.
I was up bright and early trying to make my house look "less lived in" ahead of visitors arriving and we all headed out for a carvery meal for dinner. It was super yummy (especially the chocolate brownie sundae) and it has left me feeling very full, content and lazy. One of the visitors came back with us and we have had a good old chat over a cup of tea .. .. but now they have gone I can catch up with blogland whilst hubby watches the football he has recorded.
Last night we went to a wedding reception and enjoyed a lovely evening. It was really funny to see all the place names I had made standing on the tables. I had read and checked everyone's name so often that it was quite funny to suddenly be able to put some faces to the names.
I made the following card to take with us
