At my house


At my house today I'm recovering from a sore back. We've had quite a few tense moments in our house this week waiting on medical results for my eldest child and today we were told the results were all clear. My back on the weekend finally decided that it couldn't take any more tension and decided to pack it in. But I'm on the mend and in a wonderful state of mind knowing that my child is going to be OK. Plus butterflies have always made me happy so I thought I'd cut some more out using my youngest daughters finger paintings and add them to our welcome wall in the hallway. I've decided to continue the butterflies around the corner to the next wall for people to follow. I just love them.

What are you doing at your house? Why not join in over at Lou Lou's.

Forgot to say the zippered pouches are very easy thanks to that tute. I'll be making dozens for Christmas presents this year!

WOW, I really do love to get a sneak peek into other people's houses - love the shot of you on the couch and I am super impressed by the welcome wall - such a clever and original idea with the beautiful butterflies.

I'm glad you've had some good news with your eldest this week and all the best for yourself.

Thanks for joining in this week. Lovely to have you. Lou.

Oh NOoooo despite it being a gorgeous photo I wonder if you shouldn't be flat out for your back, based on my own experience ;-) Your butterflies are totally beautiful. Plus I'm so happy for you re the good news on your little Darling. Hope your week is all good. xo.

Inspired, I say! Inspired! Love a bit of unexpected house art. Somehow I convinced the Mr to drill a hole in our hall wall to stick a dead branch. For, um, crafted birds to sit on...

PS. Breathe deeply mama - fabulous news indeed.

What a relief about your child's tests! Only a mother can know how anxious we get over our children. Now that you know everything's ok I'm sure your back pain will go away soon.

Gorgeous butterflies! Make me smile!
