The weather has been really sunny, with lovely blue skies but it still has that nip in the air which keeps me indoors. We did a couple of trips to shops like Toys'r'Us for me to get my little nephew something for his birthday and I had my first ever trip to Costco. What a place! It's a giant warehouse with goods packed up to the ceilings and GINORMOUS packets of everyday things. I saw the biggest can of tuna I have ever seen in my life! But, amongst all this they also had really expensive jewellery in there too, just across from the washing machine aisle they had a diamond necklace that would cost you, get this, £11,000!! There were also Prada handbags costing a mere £1,000.... Its another world I tell you. I did spot some scrapbooking goodies I would have liked to have got, including a nice vintage set for £13 for 300 sheets and a great storage caddy but I was coming home with the kids on the train and was already carrying 4 bags (blast!)
Just took a couple of pics of my kids and their cousin in my sister's big garden. It has a children's mini fort in it!:
These brave knights didn't have swords,
they had...
..Light sabres!

Finally today, I can show you a card I received yesterday in the post from kayc, who is from a card swopping group on the internet called craftrak.com. It's fairly new so not many people are using it yet. It was a nice card I received, but was very small (7.5 x 10.5cms).
For details of how you swop, (think you have to register) pop along to the website http://www.craftrak.com/. (I haven't done any swopping myself on it yet so am not necessarily recommending it).
See you tomorrow,
