This week's smiles....week 327

 What a wonderful week it's been for us here at Sewing by Annie's....We left here on Friday morning and got home on Tuesday afternoon.....and we had an amazing time.  We had no rain apart from at night time so were able to explore Devon.




We stayed in a beautiful little barn conversion in Loxhore. It had a cleverly designed kitchen in a cupboard and was in beautiful enclosed gardens which Milly really enjoyed.





We visited Saunton Sands, the hotel we had our honeymoon in 43 1/2 years ago, and a lovely lady took our photo :-)

Milly really enjoyed her run on the beach.



We enjoyed meals out every day [in dog friendly places...and Milly was a real star] and we even sat outside on the Monday under a Covid style hut with a wall heater...and we enjoyed walks on lots of beaches.

All in all we revisited many places with special memories and had an amazing few days.

I came home to 13 memory characters waiting for me to make so have been kept very busy since Tuesday.


Of course I had to find a few funnies to share with you...hope something here makes you smile.

Please leave me a little comment so I know you've called in and then link up to your own smiles below.

Hugs,

This week's smiles.....week 519

 Firstly I must say sorry that I didn't manage to get around the blogs last week.....we were away on an adventure down in south Devon in our caravan and the internet at the campsite was poor.  We had a wonderful few days but I was very missed so have come home to a lot of work.








Here are a few snaps we took while away.  We visited Dartmouth, Plymouth, Salcombe to name but a few.  The sun shone all weekend and our batteries were well charged.





We saw some amazing sunsets from sitting out near the caravan and I managed to snap these pics of the sun getting lower in the sky.





As we arrived home and before we put the caravan back on the drive I took a few pics of the bees enjoying the lavender on the front garden.




I snapped these pics of the huge piles of factory trousers that my darling hubby and I had taken all the old zips out of one evening....I took these pics not really because they make me smile but because I wont be doing many more batches of these because.......



.....this arrived this week...it is now official ....I will be able to get my pension on 23rd October 2023.....and that definately made me smile.

I don't plan to stop sewing but I will be stopping doing the factory trousers....and my sore aching hands from doing this latest batch reminds me why.






Our back garden continues to make us smile.....everywhere you look there is something to make you smile.







Of course I have to end with a few funnies....I hope you leave here smiling and will link up at the bottom to share your own smiles of the week.
Hugs,
