GIFTSONLINE4U.COM

Are you looking for something to buy for someone but unsure of what to buy, Want to get them something different to what you would normally buy, Then I recommend you check out http://www.giftsonline4u.com/

They have a wide range of gifts to choose from, Not only can you search by gift type, you can also search by price, They have gifts for all occasions, from Christmas, valentines, fathers day, birthdays and so much more.
I have spent hours browsing their site and would be over the moon if I were to receive some gifts from their and have mentioned their site to a few friends and family members

I also like the fact that their contact number is clearly noted at the top of the page, and not only do they except credit/debit card as payment but they also except pay pal.


I think this engraved compact mirror is absolutely stunning, I also like that you can have it engraved with a personal message all for just £34.99, Not only is it something you could use but it would also make a lovely keepsake gift.

Not only do they have some lovely gifts for women but they also have gifts to suit baby's and children and men, They even have personalised football gifts with a wide range of football teams to choose from.
I have already found the gift I will be purchasing for my step-dad for his birthday later in the year


 
A personalised zippo lighter with the Liverpool football team logo on the front and on the back of the lighter you can add your choice of message, again a great gift to receive, and also one to keep for just £34.99

When choosing a personalised item, it is easy to do, and you can also follow an easy how to tutorial, and whats more is that postage to the UK is free no matter how little or how much you spend.
I highly recommend you check out their site.

You can also find them on twitter and facebook

New Years Eve 2012

NEW YEARS EVE 2012

Most new years eve for the past 7 years, Their is a few of us who get together, Their's myself and my 2 children, My mum and step-dad, My friend emma and her partner steve and their 2 children.
Also any one else who turns up and decides to join us.
We all gather in one house and have a few drinks together whilst the kids play or watch dvds, we then around 10.30ish start to get the kids ready and wrapped up warm to walk to our local town to watch the fireworks at midnight from the castle.

A picture of the kids monkeying around, trying to get them to sit still and have a nice picture was a task in itself, after taking 3 or 4 of them making faces I gave up



The top picture is of me and emma, This was just before we were about to start walking, I'm already merry their, The picture below is of dj and kai pulling their party poppers


Ruby flat out in the pram, she did well as she was awake until 11.30pm, woke up for 2 seconds whilst the fireworks on and went straight back to sleep, The 2nd picture is of kai, dj and another friend with their sparklers.






And the lost lot of pictures are a few of the fireworks, Sorry their not brill but by this time I was slightly worse for wear, and the last picture was taken when we got back in from seeing the fireworks, It's my step-dad who was also a little drunk and thought it was funny to pretend to be a reindeer.

I have to say that 2012 wasn't the best year for me, so I am glad that it is finally over, although new years eve was fantastic, but again I was with my kids, great friends and family.
I am looking forward to 2013 and what it has in store for me as I have a few goals I hope to reach, although I won't tell you about them just yet.

Happy new year to all who read my blog, I hope 2013 brings you lots of luck, love and happiness
What are your aims, goals and wishes for this year?

CHRISTMAS DAY 2012


I have to be honest and say that I wasn't looking forward to christmas this year, Yes I no I have 2 wonderful kids to enjoy it with, but earlier in the year I lost some-one very dear to me, she was only 14 years old and it was the first christmas in 3 years that I wouldn't be able to speak too.
But I did enjoy christmas as luckily I was surrounded by my wonderful children, family and friends.




The kids pile of presents, Ruby had a bike as her main present, Dj's main present was alot smaller as it was a childs touchpad with various learning apps on, that he can also play games, listen to music, access the net and take pictures on.
I decided on the kids touchpad for dj as he is dyslexic so I wanted something that not only would he like but will also learn on.






A few more pictures from throughout the day, The kids opening their presents, Ruby who decided it was a good idea to sit in her dolls pram, and wanted pushing around the house in it, which I will say was hard work as i had to bend right down, and was scared of the pram breaking whilst she was sat in it.
Dj and ruby playing with one of the play-doh sets they each had for christmas, and another of some of us who were here for dinner.

The kids had a fantastic day and loved everything that santa had got for them, I loved everything santa got for me as well, especially my new pj's and slippers, perfect for these horrible cold nights we're currently having.
I hope you all had a fantastic day and got lots of lovely presents

A Rare Night Out

Last month I had a rare night out with my auntie, A few friends were also out.
I only went to my local town about a mile from where I live, and to one of the local pubs, Their was a drag act on and I have to say I was happy I went out as I had such a fantastic night.

 Me and my auntie singing simply the best in the pub, I have to say I can't sing to save my life I was lucky I didn't smash any of the windows with my voice, But its all fun


This is me and the drag act, coming towards the end of the night, as you can see by my face

 Me and a young lad called jamie, Believe it or not jamie is only 18, Im 28 and used to babysit for him, strange how I now end up in the pub joining him for a few drinks
 My lovely auntie and one of her best and oldest friends, They have been friends since they were in school, My auntie is the one of the right wearing a black jacket
Me and jay, he was chewing on that straw for some reason most of the night, My eyes look evil, their soo red
