A cold and frosty morning

I had to do dog walking duties this morning as Mr B is feeling poorly sick. It felt really strange as I haven't held her on the lead since my back injury in the summer. She's just as bad really, pulling and being over excited. It's hard work! My lovely girl came with me and took these photos of a frosty Wirral Way as I couldn't hold Inca and the camera at the same time!

Inca is modelling her new Christmas collar and snuggling with her new duck. This is her third duck, and the only one to survive longer than a few hours. The other two were shredded almost at once. She carries this one around carefully from room to room .... so far! She's resting after her frosty walk. She has life totally sorted ...... long rests punctuated by short bursts of frenetic activity, a bit of eating and long, long sleeps. I've never seen a more rested dog! Meanwhile we need a rest after taking her on her frosty walk!
Handmade with love

Now that they've been opened I can show the Christmas cards I made for my family. I don't usually get round to making my own cards but this year I was determined to make some for my nearest and dearest. I was really pleased how they turned out, if I do say so myself.

A lavish affair for Mr. B. .......
bright and breezy for my lovely boy.....
.... and ever so sparkly for my lovely girl, who loves sparkly pretty things and who bought me this lovely sparkly heart from Liberty's Christmas shop when she was in London recently.
