This week's smiles.....week 396

 I was missing in action last week but hope you all had a wonderful Christmas...we did.  It was rather different/hectic this year but many happy memories were made...


I cooked Christmas dinner on Christmas eve so Theo and Louie could enjoy their Christmas with their daddy who is now living with us.  Shell, Brent and the twins joined us for Christmas Eve tea and it was really lovely to see the grandchildren enjoying fun time together.  Peggy had a Christmas jumper but it didn't stay on for long :-)   Bottom middle is a photo taken when my darling hubby stepped up to dress up as Santa for the school Shell teaches at when their usual man rang in sick at the last minute....He did a wonderful job [rather emotional to watch] and gave out pressies to about 80 children.  I have a feeling he will be asked back next year too.




Christmas day my dinner was cooked for me by the men in my life...Beef Wellington...and it was really yummy.  Why does food always taste better when you don't have to cook it?  :-)





Now that just leaves me to add a few funnies for you all and to wish you a very happy and healthy 2025.

Here's to many more shared smiles.
Hugs,

WOYWW....

 Firstly I'd like to say I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas...it was a little hectic/different here this year but many happy memories were made.  Also I would like to wish you all a very happy New Year....lets hope it's a healthy one for us all and is filled with everything you wish for yourselves.


I thought this was appropriate for us all :-)






I can now share something I made before Christmas.  It's a Luna Lapin rabbit but this time I had to dress it as a paramedic with a navy blue shirt, green trousers and a zip up green fleece jacket.  I really enjoyed the challenge to get it all right and the customer I made it for really loved it.

That's all from me for today.  I hope you all have a fun filled day.  I am closed until Monday 6th but already have one memory bear waiting to be made and more arriving soon .....happy days. :-)
