For some crazy reason an alarm was set for 3.30 am this morning but I think when you look through the photos you will probably agree that it was well worth the sacrifice! Im told by some that 'its all down hill from today' but I would like to think that Summer is just beginning…

Happy Birthday Olive.
Being a grandparent is surprisingly lovely, although I still have to pinch myself to believe that I am one. I cant believe that this little baby girl has reached her first birthday already and that Arlo who is soon to be 4 now has a baby brother 'Sebbie Rafe' who is just 5 months old.…
Skipping and Gamboling.
Nothing says 'spring is here' more to me, than the sweet sight of newly born wrinkly lambs skipping and gamboling among the myriad of yellow dandelion heads in the Peak District fields. Oohs and aahs emanate from my mouth on a daily basis as I drive past this field and that, and see those little…

I am a mole and I live in a hole.

Today I hugged a tree!
I would never in a million years have thought that I would become a tree hugger. Ive heard about people doing it, and the health benefits it can bring but me! Nope! definitely not a tree hugger. Well that is until now. At the moment with various life changes going on I am fortunate to…
CLOUD TREE!
Home grown Clouds! Love Alison x
Oh the joys.
Who would have known being a grandparent would bring so much joy. Little Olive is a real cutey and as a family we are loving getting to know this new little person. Shes even decided already to follow Aston Villa. Daddys team, hmmmm! Im not sure she had much choice but daddy Kev seems happy.…
Change.
A flame burns bright...
Cinderella
I am and always will be so very proud of her.
Mugs and Moods.
I have a mug for sunny days or when I want to bring the sunshine into my life...
A day in my life.
my heart sinks again (I have developed a sixth sense)...
Pure Joy!
Buttercups.
Swaying gently, in the warm June breeze, they stand tall....,
Baby Olive
Alarm clocks ring.....
Ah!
Ah : Used to express a range of emotions including surprise, pleasure, sympathy. Yesterday morning I had to get up early and drive from the Peak District to Derby to take Simon to have his botox injections at the hospital. He has a condition called Dystonia which is a movement disorder in which your muscles…
AWE!
Awe! A feeling of reverential respect, mixed with fear and wonder...
