Christmas approaches ......

Well if I ever hoped for a white christmas this year we have one! Beginning of December it snowed, and it hasn,t really stopped since. The country is cloaked in white and it is beautiful, however the practicalities are horrendous ... struggling to get to work and nowhere to park, christmas deliveries delayed, freezing fingers,toes and noses......

Allan, Solo & I are enjoying much of it and keeping each other warm.

We put up our tree today and it feels a bit like Christmas. Four more days struggling into work then time off toether ......

The boys are coming to us on Christmas Day and we are going to Al's Mum & Dad on Boxing Day it is a family time of year afterall.

Wishing Everyone a happy and peaceful Christmas

Wedded Bliss

Allan & I were married at Kirknewton House Stables at 3pm on Saturday 16th October 2010.

It was a wonderful day and I am still smiling .....

We spent a lovely relaxing week just outside Beauly, eating & drinking, watching old movies beside a roaring fire and dog walking .... bliss.

We did revisit the McLean ancestral home at Torridon, where I placed wedding flowers on the memorial stone and the old graveyard.

time passes

Pete's 22nd Birthday, we all met up for lunch in town. Allan was unwell so didn't make it, but we had a yummy meal.

Wedding plans going well.

Pete's off to London for a stint working, Andy's 1st year at Uni is almost over, Mike's doing well with his music and Tom's gym doing well.

life goes on ....

New Beginnings

A long while has passed since my last post and alot has happened.
The most exciting and happiest is my engagement to Allan. We are getting married in October and a warm peacefullness is how my life feels, so unlike the feelings I have known.

It is amazing to be loved by such a wonderful man and to love him so much without any effort. I wander around with a silly smile and have to keep looking at the lovely diamond on my finger to remind myself this is real!

The boys are all happy for us which adds to the niceness of it all.

Sue & Rob are coming over from Kiwiland to be here with us and celebrate Scottish style.

:-)

Happy New Year!

oops a bit late I know but have been frozen in snow over Xmas ........
The big thaw has arrived and white has turned to green again ....well more brown mud but you get my drift!
Festive season was nice, pleased to be back to normal again.
Studying TCM online modules and it's good to get the brain working again.
Allan & I had a nite out at We Will Rock You, loved it and then another nite at Stomp! very cool ...... social calendar clear again for the next decade hehe.
