Mylo, Wedding cake and a busy time!

I just wanted to check in on my blog and apologise for not posting for a while.
Life seems to have got rather busy of late and some thing has got to give.
The girls, Phil and now Mylo will always be my priority along with time for God...Don't forget I'm reading the Bible in a Year...again!

I have really enjoyed spending time with our new puppy, Mylo and recently he had his last immunisation which meant we can get out walking with him. He is loving it and so am I.



Mylo ready for walkies in his lovely warm coat! He certainly gets lots of admirers when we are out walking him.

Laura has been doing most of the walking which is great! This evening I joined her and it was so good to get out in the fresh air and enjoy the last of the days sunshine, hearing the birds sing as if it was dawn and not dusk. It really feels like Spring has sprung today, unlike Monday when I stood on the school playground and felt chilled to the bone! The wind chill was bitter. I must remember my hat!

We bumped into Millie, the Cockapoo  on our evening walk. It was Millie and a chat with her owner, a friend of mine, that started us off on the journey of getting a dog last year.
Millie is a real cutie, 18 months old now and she has a beautiful black curly coat. Makes me wonder how Mylo's coat will turn out. At the moment it is very soft and fluffy!





I have also been busy making a wedding cake with my twin sister, Donna. It is for my niece, Carrie, who will be getting married in April.
We are making a three tier fruit cake which will then be marzipanned, iced and decorated...so,
'The Cake off' we had at Christmas turned out to be good practise for this! We are only novices but Carrie seems to think we can do a good job...proof will be in the eating! I will keep you up to date with our progress...The cakes have been baked and are being 'fed' at the moment, so we have the decorating to do next!



 
Making the cake. The bottom tier is a 10" round so there was a lot of mixture!

It is also my husband Phil's 40th birthday next week so I have been busy doing a few things in preparation for that...I won't say too much because he might be reading this!

I will get back to more regular blogging soon but until then, bye for now!
