Show and Tell Sunday....

I can't believe It's October already!! but here we are, another month and another 'Show and Tell Sunday' hosted by the lovely Joe @ Josie Mary.

This months topic is 'one thing I would like to do before I die'
Wow! What a question! There are lots of things I would like to do before I die!

The most important to me is that I want to make sure that everyone I love is happy and knows how much they mean to me, I never want to regret not telling someone I love them enough.
I am so lucky to have met my gorgeous Husband and intend to enjoy every moment with our family.
I know this may seem a small thing but to me it is everything!

But that makes a very short post so I thought I would add a few more wishes!

James and I (and bump) would like to go on a safari to see animals in the wild! (I love giraffes!)

I would like to go back to Las Vegas

Take our baby to visit Micky in Florida

And of course own a pair of these!

(Hey! if I mention them enough surely someone will take note!!)

Cant wait to hear all your wishes!!

Lots of Love

Show and Tell!

Welcome to 'Show and Tell Sunday'!


Thank you to the fabulous Joe @ Josie-Mary for allowing me the honour of being this months guest host!

This time round I thought we could all share our favourite films (maybe even just to get your recommendations!)

I love films, I'll watch pretty much anything other than horror (because I'm a wuss!) but my favourites are so classically 'girlie'!

The first is a lovely film called 'August Rush'


If you haven't seen this then give it a try, I promise it will make you smile, cry, and, if you are anything like me, shout at the telly!
If you believe that if you just wish hard enough anything is possible, then this is the film for you!
I will be expecting a copy of this on DVD for Christmas as someone (who shall remain nameless!) has deleted it from sky plus!

Next is 'The Notebook' originally a book by Nicholas Sparks this film looses nothing in being translated to the screen. I love it just because I'm a hopeless romantic!


This film never fails to make me emotional (OK I cry like a baby!) I love the clothes, I love the story and I love the ending (which I won't spoil if you haven't seen it!)

I couldn't write this post without mentioning this film!


James tuned in because there was nothing else on last Sunday night, I was surprised that I'd never seen it but found it hysterical, I was laughing all the way through, definitely entertaining, if a bit mindless!

I could go on for ages but will spare you all my Berry Norman imitation!

I'm looking forward to hearing about your favourite films!

Lots of Love

September Already?..........

I refuse to believe it's already September where has the time gone?

Once again I have been neglecting both my little blog and my blogging friends!
I've just found myself wrapped up in a whirlwind of work and trying to get things straight at home after the pre and post wedding chaos!

Apparently some of the most stressful events in a persons life is moving, getting married and having a baby, trust me to do them all at once!

My poor James moved his possessions into the garage in July and that is where they have remained.
We thought it was about time to get the house fully amalgamated to make a comfortable and organised home for our new arrival.

This, of course, means that it's time to part with the junk that seems to find its way into the house no matter how much I promise myself not to hoard!
It seemed sensible to clear out the clutter before we tried to bring anything else into the house so we started with the loft, a car full of rubbish and another car full to the charity shop and I'm pleased that we've made a good start!


I'm sure I'll be sharing our progress with you as we go along but for now I'll get on to something more interesting!
For some time now, the lovely Joe at Josie Mary has hosted a monthly event called 'Show and Tell Sunday'


This month I'm the guest host and have decided that I would love to hear all about your favourite films, what is your favourite film and why? (you can have more than one!)

To join in all you have to do is let me know you are intending to post (so I can link to you) and post about your favourite film on Sunday the 5th September!
Anyone who joins in will get an extra entry into my extra special 'Happy Monday' giveaway (being announced on the 6th)

So I'm back properly now (fingers crossed!), I'll be visiting you all in the next few days!!!!

Lots of Love

Show and Tell!

Happy Sunday! Hope you have all had a lovely weekend!
This week is the start of an exciting new monthly event hosted by the lovely Josie-Mary!
The first Sunday of every month will now be known as 'Show and Tell Sunday'.

Do pop over and join in, Its going to be fun!

This month's topic is 'your favourite spot in your house'!
I found this a bit difficult as there are so many places in my house that I love! Having already done a post on my bed :), and due to the fact that I have spent a fair few hours organising my wardrobe lately, I thought I would let you all have a peek!


Sorry about the poor light!
I had this wardrobe built into an awkward alcove when I bought my house.
Victoria and I had long admired the closets we had seen in the houses we had stayed in on our Florida trips and wished we had them at home. When I realised that with a bit of expertise (and, of course, cash) that I could have one in my own bedroom I was a happy girl!
My friend Mark (a fab carpenter!) was shown pictures and told to create and here she is!

Wanna look inside?


I can only let you see half as I'm not quite finished in the other side :)
I have recently been to good old Ikea and with a few storage solutions from there and a bit of ruthless clearing out I have managed to condense and organise pretty well!


Shoes (just the heels!) in fantastic shoe storage boxes from Ikea! (there's even 2 empty ones waiting to be filled!)


Acessories in these pretty storage boxes

These bigger boxes are fab (and huge!) and store all my 'every day' shoes (sandals and flip flops in one and boots in the other!). The hanging 'thing' stores all my make up, hair stuff and hair appliances too, previiously these took up loads of room in baskets so I'm really pleased at how much 'smaller' this storage is!

Hope you have enjoyed having a look in my wardrobe! I have to say bye for today though as I'm going to have to go to work now BOO!

See you all tomorrow when I will be announcing the winner of this month's giveaway!

Lots of Love
