Night out with the girls





Last night we went out to dinner with the ladies from Poole University. We went to an Italian restaurant that was superb! We had a great time. These shots were taken with my phone camera so the quality isn't so good, and some of us weren't ready for the shutter (below)......say cheese!
Ellen enjoyed the aroma of her risotto. (above)
Guess what's on the pizza??? .....something green and something you would never guess would be on a pizza. Why don't you leave a comment with the answer you think it is...I will post the answer in 2 days....! Let's see who's the smartest....! You will NEVER guess!

Me and Jordan

This is me and Jordan. No, Jordan is not mine..hehe..he is my good friend Erinn's baby. He just turned 5 months. I think he is pretty special so you may see him appearing quite a bit!
We went to a park full of hydrangeas in early June, but it was a little early.....Jordan still had fun getting aquainted with the flowers though.

Jordan and his present

Jordan is such a smiley boy! He looks so happy to get his present. I FINALLY finished a cross-stitch for him in honour of his birth....only 5 months late!

Cross-stitch for Jordan

Here's the cross-stitch I made for Jordan. I sewed it on a bag so it would be useful for him. Now he keeps all his favourite toys in it.
