Good Morning Everyone, It's Tom's birthday today...9 already!! Where has the time gone??!! We are taking him to the Cinema this morning with one of his friends to see The Lego Movie, and then lots of family coming over this afternoon for a big family meal. He had a joint party with one of his friends last week. We took 15 boys to Xscape in Castleford to go sledging on the ice slide! With it being Tom's birthday and half term I haven't had time for any crafting so I thought I'd have a little giveaway, but something a bit different. Mr B took up photography as a hobby a couple of years ago and last year won the Panasonic Photographer of the Year. I've only just convinced him to sell a few at craft fairs etc. If you want to win an A4 mounted photograph(of YOUR choice) all you have to do is leave your name with Mr Linky and pop over to Paul's blog or facebook page, have a nosey at his photo's and leave me a comment as to which photo you would choose! It would be brilliant if you could pop this in your sidebar or leave a comment for Paul on his blog, or 'like' him on facebook! I pinched his camera when we were out with the children and took this one!
I'll draw a winner at the end of February. (Please be a follower and NO candy only blogs!) Thanks Lorraine x
