What a week

Ok it has been a week since I last blogged and what a week. Not exactly holiday but a good mixture of things.

Wednesday I headed upto Ellel Grange in Lancaster a christian conference prayer retreat place. This has been very helpful in my post marriage Journey.

Friday night we went into Dalston to a village festival event that had been going on for 2 weeks.
There was a live band or two booze and fun.



2 excited girls waiting for their candy floss to be made


This one was called how to look good naked and this one late home

There was a scarecrow trail and although I took zillions of photos (nothing new there )  these two made me smile.
The local church was open selling tea and cakes and also had a flower display .


I am showing this as it has the union jack in it.


And this one based on the poem "When am old I will wear purple"

Saturday we ( I was taking my eldest great niece Mya) headed off to visit Elizabeth in Liversedge near Leeds.
Amazingly Elizabeth had managed to leave work early and we had a fab evening together.

Sunday morning Mya and I headed to Abundant Life Ministry church in Bradford a wonderful if not overwelcoming fellowship I would go again .
