Life seems to be flying my by at the moment – my new job is keeping me busy and is turning out to be more hours than I initially realised. I hope to get into a better routine soon as I am missing my time spent creating and blogging.
Here is a snap shot of my week…..
Today is my son’s 16th birthday! We are having the grandparents over after school to celebrate so I couldn’t resist making these streusel topped apple cupcakes with cupcake toppers. He is having his mates over tomorrow – I don’t think I would get away with cupcake toppers then:) It is hard to believe that I am a parent to a 16 year old – they grow up way too fast.
I have been working on some machine quilting….
I have been looking at this pile of fabric – destined for some Fathers Day inspired projects.
I have been reading this library book – lots of fun ideas for cushions.
I had better go and frost the chocolate cake before the birthday boy gets home from school! Have a great weekend.
Happy Birthday to your 16 year old son!
Love your new blog lay out. Very clear!
happy birthday to your boy! love his cupcakes, they look delicious x
Happy Birthday Brenton! He’s 4 years and 1 week older than my first born 🙂 Have a great time celebrating with Family and Friends – looks like you’re doing it in style.
Happy happy birthday Brenton…some lovely people were born on this day 😉 It must be a real wake-up call to realise your son is almost a man Lisa ;( Love his cupcakes, and they look delicious! The quilt is coming along beautifully, and I’ve had my eye on that Sweetwater fabric for a while…yum!
Happy 16th young man ! Have a great birthday .
Bet your 16 year old could eat those cupcakes in one big bite without even chewing. (or is that just my 16 year old son??)
Happy birthday to him.
Happy Birthday! Yes, they grow up very fast. I’m the mother of 2 “children” in their 20s. Not sure how that happened.
Hi Lisa, pass on my birthday wishes to your son and i hope he has a great couple of days. Your cupcakes look delicious as usual and your quilt/ting looks great. I would say that you have accomplished a lot in a week.
xx
happy birthday to your son! those cupcakes are just too cute!
Happy 16th birthday to your son! What a great age to celebrate! Ah, I remember those days… Love your productive week of baking and sewing and reading!
Enjoy your fun filled weekend! Happy Birthday to your son! His special cupcakes looks so yummy!
Happy Birthday to your son. They do grow up far too quickly! Looking forward to seeing what fathers day inspired things you come up with , with that fabric!
Happy Birthday to your son. The fabric for father’s day is fabulous. And the book looks delightful. Good luck juggling everything so you get more crafting time.
Happy birthday to your son! Yes, they grow up so fast. One day they are 5 and then in a blink of an eye they are 31! (wow! how did that happen when I haven’t aged a day? Hee hee)
Happy, happy 16 to your son. It does come up awfully fast, doesn’t it? The cupcakes look scrumptious… would you mind sharing your recipe?
oh my gosh these cupcakes look amazing!
Its such a nuisance that work gets in the way of our crafting which is much more fun!
Happy Birthday to your son.
They do indeeed grow up fast. Enjoy the moments you have. The book looks fab.
