Hello, lovely people! This afternoon, after an unsuccessful attempt to make a doctor's appointment (he's not in today - sob sob!), Mark and I went to see Avengers Assemble. Despite going for the 12.40 showing, the queue was huge!! We made it just in time, after the adverts had started, for the 2D showing - we both find the 3D a little pointless and expensive.
I have to say it was awesome! Definitely worth a watch, and although a long film, it manages to keep you entertained for about 95% of it. The other 5% is down to it not being as comfortable as the sofa at home ;) My favourites in this were Robert Downey Jr (Iron Man), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow) and Mark Ruffalo (Hulk). Has anyone else seen it?? What did you think? :)
Psst... For anyone who hasn't seen it watch out for the bit where Hulk punches Thor (soo funny!)
Last Saturday (28th) was Mark's mum, Sandra's, 50th birthday party. It was held at a venue called the Ship and Mitre in Liverpool, the room was lovely and intimate with dark wood. Here are a few photos from the night.

I had a lovely chat with Mandy about photography, as I took the big Canon camera along hence these lovely shots. Mandy is also interested in photography, and it was wonderful to meet her!

Joanne & Sandra, two gorgeous sisters!

Di is a lovely woman, as is her husband Nick who I spoke to a fair bit at the party! Di has popped into work a few times, and it's always nice to see her.

And to finish them off a cheeky self taken shot of us at the end of the night!
It was a great night, and lovely to meet some more of Mark's family, we all had a wonderful time.
Hello again, now for the second part of my catch up :) here are some more photos I have taken over the last couple of weeks.
This is Indigo assisting Willow in making me this lovely bracelet! Willow recently bought various beads and elastic in order to make her own bracelets, and I love mine! The only dilemma was when choosing what I'd have on it!
Thank you, Willow! :)
Me and Indigo one morning before leaving the house for the school run :)
Phoebe, mumma bear and Indigo on their way to school.
At the point where we leave Phoebe & Phoenix to walk to the crossing man on their own, as you can see him from here. Phoenix is ahead with a friend and Phoebe is attempting to catch up with him!! Indigo thinks that she's going to their school too!
But we carry on, and this on the way to Indigo's playgroup. Indigo is higher than mumma bear.
Indigo being higher :)

And changing into her Peppa Pig slippers!
Another morning, I think Indigo was grumpy because she wasn't going to school!
Grumpy face!!!!!

Last Thursday morning before I left home again, I painted Indigo's nails a nude pink colour and decorated them with pretty little nail stickers. Indigo wanted a sticker on every nail! She loves having her nails done, whether you're cutting them down or painting them she wants to be involved.
I also painted mumma bear's nails the same nude pink colour (Topshop) and she chose a dragonfly for her two ring fingers.
Lastly, I was asked to do this picture as a gift for someone. I can't say who or post complete photos just yet as the person hasn't received it yet! I enjoyed drawing and painting this, and will post pictures of the complete picture at the weekend for you to see :)
As this post is already full of pictures, I will save the party photos for tomorrow! Hopefully Mark and I are going to see Avengers tomorrow too, so I will let you know how that goes.
