Father's day

Hi all

Did you get to celebrate father's day? If so what did you do?

We tried to spoil my hubby as much as possible but I think he deserves so much more. We are so lucky & blessed to have him in our lives and love him loads. We did the usual cards and presents etc but I also baked a carrot cake :) & hubby was most pleased with it.

Just wanted to wish all of you fathers, step fathers and fathers to be a belated happy father's day.

Love

Lily

Christmas magic

Hi all
I'm so excited about Christmas 2014 already as my Cody will hopefully be old enough to understand the magic of it a little. I know it's kinda selfish but I have let him watch some of our Disney Mickey Mouse Christmas special DVDs to start to get an idea. He loves them.
We feel like we kinda skipped christmas last year really as I was struggling with my pregnancy and Cody was ill with an ear & chest infection on Christmas Day. We actually ended up at the hospital with him on the day. I hope & pray for a healthier & happier christmas this year.
Do you have any tips on introducing children to the magic of Christmas? I would appreciate
Hope this finds you well.

Devil's cake

Hi all
Tonight we had a few reasons to celebrate, mainly all of us under one roof and in good health. It has been nice to avoid doctors and hospitals and medication for a little while now so my amazing hubby surprised me with a bottle of pink champagne. It was delicious, so delicious that we forgot to take photos. So in return, I baked a "devil's cake". It's basically chocolate cake with chocolate icing.
I know what you are thinking, not very healthy but we hardly do it so it has been a real treat :)
How did you spend your weekend?
Hope this finds all of you well.
