24. Memory.... This card's got to be my fave from my birthday! So many dancing shows, so many happy memories :) 25. Little.... I did my little bit for MND with the Ice Bucket challenge - wow was it cold! Click the video below if you want a nosey, don't worry I won't nominate you.... 26. Morning.... I must get back into the gym. I had quite a good workout on Tuesday morning, so good I ended up signing up for a 5K run! Don't ask! More info on this another day! I'm mega uber busy at the moment (what's new I know!) & for some reason some of the words from the August Break Challenge have left me stumped & un-inspired so I'm going to miss them out! My blog my rules! This is part of Susannah's August Break challenge - see more info  HERE Ttfn x

21. Treasures... On the 21st it was my 30th birthday - wow where did time go?! I got lots of treasures that made me smile...in particular was: ~ my last Hen Party letter that I wasn't allowed to open till my 30th birthday, (I'd kept it safe for almost 2 years & couldn't wait to see what was inside!). I opened it up to find it was from Scary, each page was for something she remembered us doing together along with a few photos & postcards. It was brilliant & brought back memories of so many fun times. I really miss spending time with her so here's to a proper catch up soon Miss! ~ the other gift was an Illustration from Lou's friend Stuart - check out his website  HERE . He's one talented chap! He got every little detail right from my non-existent chin to my patterned tights & filly socks! 23. Adornment... I love wearing my Crown & Glory (website HERE ) RockNRoll Bride headpiece. It always makes me feel sunny & happy...

Came home from a manic day, decided to buy some Pansies & plant them in the peace of our garden....no noise, no hustle just me & the earthworms. Bliss! I can't believe today is my last day in my twenties! I'm the big 3-oh tomorrow. Wow where did the time go?! This is part of Susannah's August Break challenge - see more info  HERE Ttfn x

15. Blue... I'm sorry.....couldn't resist! Anyway if you really knew me I'm sure you were expecting it anyway! 16. Look Down.... Exactly what I am doing. 17. Bookshelf.... This is one of my favourite parts of our new home...I always wanted a library wall & I've got one along with space for some special knick-knacks 18. Jump.... Yesterday I got a bit excitable....not only did I get tickets to the tv show "Tumble" on Saturday....H from Steps tweeted to say see you there. We're practically BFFs. Fact! My little heart did a pretty big jump! 19. Black & White.... I've actually started wearing more monochrome outfits lately, well KtP can't do monochrome without the odd neon flash in there. I think this is as close as I'll get. This is part of Susannah's August Break challenge - see more info  HERE Ttfn x

9. In My Bag... My bag all packed with props for Secret Cinema last night. It was amazing! I'll do a proper post when it's finished so u don't spoil anything for anyone still to go....believe me though, you won't regret it! 10. Drink.... You haven't had a good tea till you've had a "Grumble Tea" there's a guy at work who makes the. best. tea, shame today's Sunday & I won't get one!

....a day to get excited! In t-minus 2 days we'll be going Back To The Future with the help of Secret Cinema & we can't wait! We popped to Hill Valley Stores tonight to get a few last minute bits & bobs for our outfits & couldn't possibly walk past Lou's Cafe without dropping in for a hot dog & fries. The atmosphere was great & the people working there made you feel so welcome & part of it, if this is just a little taster then I can't wait to see the whole shebang on Saturday! Yay!

Trying to find a new top for my birthday partay in a few weekends but found nothing...not one lousy top I liked...so what did I do?! Buy a new pair of shoes to cheer me up (there's logic there somewhere) at least my feet will look good. This is part of Susannah's August Break challenge - see more info HERE Ttfn x

Last month we took another trip to the 100 Aker Wood at Aldenham Country Park, this time with Jenna, Matt & Noah.  Instead of taking trusty Lumix I decided to dust off the old Double Dip camera & have a play around. You can't buy the Original Double Dip anymore but a v2 is in work - check out THIS BLOG for updates After taking these photos I did drop the camera on the floor & the back opened - hence some light leaks, but thankfully nothing was lost & I really like the end results still :) My fave shot of the day has to be the one below... Yay for double exposures! Ttfn x

Dad always used to give me the 3. 2. 1. countdown to get something done or I'd be in trouble...my Sprinkler wasn't behaving so I thought I'd give it the same treatment. Funnily enough it started working properly straight after this was taken! No lie! So I guess it works   for anything & everything!

  Off to spend more pennies tonight. Huzzah! This is part of Susannah's August Break challenge - see more info HERE Ttfn x

As I looked out of my patio doors I smiled to think I'm a proper grown up! I have patio doors for a starter. I also now have a rotary washing line (thanks to ma&pa) - I'm typing this as my first wash load dries outside.....yeah I know, cue rain clouds. I also cooked a BBQ for Sunday dinner while mum pottered in my garden & dad read the paper. This is bliss! This is part of Susannah's August Break challenge - see more info HERE Ttfn x

Could have gone on forever with this theme! I love finding patterns in anything & everything so here's just a selection of things that caught my eye today...who knows they might appear on a shirt one day soon! This is part of Susannah's August Break challenge - see more info HERE Ttfn x
