Bunny love...

'Does my bum look big in this'??? said the bunny to his friends....'You BET'!!!
If you have been reading blogs for a while now you will know these little fellows, if not then I would hate you to miss out because these are cute cute cute. They are designed by the fab Wee Wonderful, you can down load her pattern for free and get sewing, its a great project to do along side the kids, although the flat circle bottom takes a bit of fiddling, maybe not one for small fingers. But so cute, my kids picked their own fabric and have given them lots of love. Well did you miss me? I think most bloggers are not getting the time to blog at the moment, especially in the UK as we are in the throws of summer holidays and at long last the SUN CAME OUT. OK today it has gone again, but for a whole week we had great weather. My friend and her three kids came up for a few days. I think we would both agree that we are little tired now. As for the children they had sooooo much fun. The paddling pool, water side and picnics outside all helped to make it a special time for them. The old saying Happy Kids make Happy Moms...well its true! Although once they had all gone to bed we sat with a glass of wine and got our knitting out and chatted till the early hours as only close friends do. Great times.
I now have some great memories to see me through the winter months. At last being outside and getting grubby toes and listening to the childrens laughter. Just the best time. I even got to knit another mouse!!!
SO you will have to forgive me for my lack of blogging, its just been so mad around here for all the best reasons. Sadly my friend and her lovely family have gone now and silence greeted me when we returned yesterday, I was rescued by an invite to a small party, which turned out to be great fun..you know the type of party when you end up in the kitchen with to many bottles of (empty) wine on the table some scrummy food and lots of chatter.
Well I actually should not be blogging now, we should be on our way to the beach for a weekend in our Bongo camper, sadly as previously mentioned the weather has changed and we are waiting to see how the day progresses, maybe tomorrow will be better and we could travel later in the early evening and just camp for one night, then again we might be rained off!!! Have a great weekend, I will reply to my emails eventually, I am sorry for being a bit slow this week...

Isn't it amazing how much good a little time with some really good friends does? I'm glad you had such a great time with your friend and her family! I hope the weather behaves for you. The bunnies are adorable!

It's raining here, today, but it's rather nice. I like a bit of chill to take my mind off all the hot weather we've been having. As long as the rain doesn't last as long as yours did!

Great job on the bunnies and have fun with the boys!

Sounds like you've been having lots of fun. Much the same here, outside whenver we get the chance. Very hard to keep up with blogging. But it is the best thing when the children go to bed, tired from a day full of fresh air and running around.
