A Couple of Photos from Party and a Birthday Card

Hi, we had a great time at the Family Get Together, Mum had perked up, although still very fragile.  We were celebrating my Auntie Amalia and Mum's birthday together.

My youngest daughter Wendy and my great grandson Lewis

 This is the card I made for my Mum's Birthday, thank goodness she liked it.............

Hope everyone is enjoying the Olympics, am totally thrilled how well GB is doing.  The athletes are such nice people and so dedicated.  Take care of yourselves and will be back on Friday for Paint Party.  See you soon, hugs Annette x
