Caricature from our evening out.

I mentioned that we had a Caricature done last evening, it was such fun, the guy that did them was amazing, talk about quick draw McGraw I tell you he had nothing on this guy.

Edd Travers from Glasgow, he is so clever, he has a website and is available for functions and he also does gift orders. His website is www.eddtravers.co.uk please go over there and have a look, it could solve a gift problem for you.

Here is the sketch that he did for us.

and Edd kindly allowed me to colour one in too.

I love it, such fun.

So Very Proud

I’m fit to burst because last night was simply an amazing night.

Chris received his Long Service medal from the Lord Lieutenant of Durham for 20 years of Exemplary service in the Fire Brigade (Service)

It was such a proud moment for all of us to see him being recognised for this and the evening was perfect.

It started with medal being pinned by the Lord Lieutenant (which unusually is a lady) and then the certificate and unexpectedly I was also presented with flowers for supporting him in his service.

There was an official photographer there and as soon as I get the pictures I will let you see them, we also had a caricature done which is so funny and again I will let you see that too as soon as I can get it scanned in.

This is a picture of us both before setting off to the Town Hall at Durham.

Helping the Elves

On Saturday we went Christmas shopping with our daughter Lauren and of course Jack came along too, it soon became obvious that Christmas shopping just was not Jacks cup of tea at all, so Granda and myself took him on an adventure to the park and on our way back we stopped so that Jack could help the Christmas Elves.

Ragged Martha

No not me although this time of year I am a bit Ragged from the Christmas shopping ha ha!

This is Ragged Martha from Mo’s Digital Pencil

Isn’t she gorgeous?

Coloured with Copic markers and chalk pencils.

My Mam always feed the birds this time of year, mind you she does all year round, but she says we should make an extra effort in winter.

On Monday evening we are going along with Husband Chris to see him being awarded a medal for his long service in the Fire Brigade. It should be a very special evening with the family and I have a new posh frock to attend in.

I couldn’t be more proud of my man, I will try to nab some photographs of the evening and his medal to let you all see it.
