Friendship Vignettes ~ Small


Week 47 ~ Small

Hi Welcome to this weeks Friendship Vignettes. Mum and I are back this week having had a lovely visit from my brother. I did have a couple of pics that I could choose my favourite from. It was a hard choice but I met this lovely little boy on the beach when we went to Lytham St Annes and I asked him if he would put his hand on the sea wall for me to take a photo of and he did :-) we then had a joke about the hole he'd dug and that if he wasn't careful he would fall through to Australia! That totally tickled him! Isn't it great how the simplest of things can make a child laugh and laugh?!

Anyway here are our pics ....



Don't forget to pop over to Maria's blog to see all the other lovely things she makes and for a link to the other photo's she took in this theme. My Mum also has her own blog so pop over to Pirate Springs to see the other pics she took. Ruth doesn't have one yet but if she does I'll let you know :-)

Also pop over to our Friendship Vignettes blog where you can see all our themes with the one picture we each chose. Just the pictures so they can speak for themselves.

Here are the best of my other pics for this theme...






Would you like to join us?


WEEK 50 is fast approaching and to celebrate we thought we would see if anyone wanted to join us ... so you have 4 weeks to take a picture! ... the theme is GOLD (as it's our Golden Week Anniversary!)


Its not a competition - its just a bit of fun!

Come and Follow Me on Bloglovin'

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Hi I have just started using Bloglovin' and wondered if you would like to come and join me there? 

I have already started copying across the blogs I follow so I can keep up to date with everybodys latest musings having found problems with blogger dashboard and google reader. I hope this will also help me to be a more involved reader as you only get a snippet of each post whereas on google reader you often get the whole thing and so I only comment if I really want to as I would have to take the time to visit the blog in order to comment.

Anyway part of this post is to see how I can claim my blog name on Bloglovin' so we'll see how it works out. Teri's Handmade Home is already there and so this is my second blog to claim meaning I can have more than one blog to my name (which is great if you have several like I do :-) 

So I do hope you'll pop over to Bloglovin' for a browse and follow me there too :-)

Friendship Vignettes ~ Motion


Week 46 ~ Motion

Welcome to this weeks Friendship Vignettes. Sadly in the preparations for my brothers visit today mum and I were unable to get any pics this week

Here are Maria's and Ruths



It's interesting that I had thought of going to the park and getting a picture of a child on a swing like Maria. I also thought about going to the end of the road and taking pictures of cars and bikes. Also I would have tried to get one of the dog toys in mid air. Mum tried to get Bessie jumping for a toy but it was really difficult to get the timing just right.

Don't forget to pop over to Maria's blog to see all the other lovely things she makes and for a link to the other photo's she took in this theme. My Mum also has her own blog so pop over to Pirate Springs to see the other pics she took. Ruth doesn't have one yet but if she does I'll let you know :-)
