Brandon is 1!

Well it is amazing but Brandon is 1 year old today! No birthday pics of him so far, but for now I can show you the bunting I made a few months ago. It was a lot of cutting, sewing, cutting sewing. This is the first time we have hung it of course so finally I get to see it in all it's glory & I must say I am really rapt with how it came out. It's very festive & will hopefully last a lot of years. For more info on making your own bunting just visit one of my favourite blogs, The Purl Bee . There are a lot of other things there to see too.
Stay tuned for more pics tomorrow at least. There will be one of the cake at least. I am no cake decorator but between the 2 of us, Stuart & I had fun making this one. Apparently the first birthday cake is very important (I think that is only for the parents & not the child so much! lol) I showed Chris via webcam this morning & he was impressed with the cake (or maybe he was just laughing at me & what I had attempted!) . I think he was impressed by it anyway... Better go! Lots to do.
