Hello, and welcome!
I've had some brilliant news today.....TWO lots, in fact!
First of all, we were expecting our youngest, Jonathan, and his wife and baby, to come over from Northern Ireland, next week for a visit.
Some of you will remember that they relocated, last October, so Jonathan could take up a new job. They were supposed to be staying for at least a year, and then Jonathan was to come back to England, and set up a branch here.
Apparently....and I'm really excited to say......Jonathan has exceeded his targets to the extent that he can come back in April, and set up the new branch....wooohoooo!!
We have been Skypeing, backwards and forwards, all day....there is so much to do....they need to find a house, and business premises, for a start, although he will be using our stable block as an office and storage, for the time being.
Can't wait to actually have them home!!
Okay....and breathe.......
Next piece of great news.....our eldest grandchild, Hannah, has applied to 5 universities to study Music Technology, and has spent the past few months attending interviews. Over the past few days, she's been getting phone calls and letters, confirming her places in ALL FIVE universities.....AND.....the final one, today, told her that she was their #1 choice out of the 202 that applied for the courses.......AND.....they are considering offering her a scholarship......AND....they want to put her in the running for a 2 week internship IN NEW YORK with Will.I.am, the singer with the Black Eyed Peas......how good is that??!!!
Of course, Hannah is gobsmacked, and sooooooo excited! She has exactly two weeks to make up her mind about which offer she's going to accept. Oh, my........
Back to business.....here's a little card.........
I used a dotty mask to emboss the kraft card base in my Bigshot........
The tag is a freebie download, and I used my Cropadile to punch a hole and set a large eyelet in the end.......I coloured up (with PMs) the freebie sentiment, and punched a Nestie label to set it on.......very fast, very simple......and I think I like it!
I've got more exciting news to share with you, but you'll have to wait for that....just sayin'...haaaa!
Hugs,
