Ben was very reluctant to be in front of the camera, so I basically snuck up on him after dinner and we had a quick mini-shoot. I love how his personality shines through in these! Feel free to come back and stay anytime, Ben.

I’ve been quite busy lately helping with fundraisers for the local Playgroup. And because I’m around lots of pretty things and fun people, I just can’t resist taking my camera.

Popped into Diva Wrappings for a mini-photo session to get some images for web banners. What a lovely experience! The stuff in there is so gorgeous that I was spoilt for choice. 
 
 
 
 
 

I just love these little bitty boxes, even though I have no idea what I’d put in them:

And the wrapping paper is just lushious!

During Saturday’s fair, I had a prize draw to win a Free Photoshoot. I’ve done the draw and the winner is Linda Ashton. Linda will receive a voucher for a Photoshoot which is valid till March 31, 2010, which she can either use herself, or give as a Christmas gift. Thanks to all who entered. I’ll post some photos from Linda’s shoot when they’re done.

Saturday’s fair was a great success, and loads of fun, too. I met some fabulous creative people, took loads of photos, and had very sore feet by the end of the day!

I owe huge apologies to Diva Wrappings, for spending the whole day standing next to them and chatting and neglecting to take any pictures! (My excuse here is that they were still setting up when I went round doing all the pictures, so I intended to come back later and get some… and then completely forgot to actually take them!)

And a huge THANKS to Mrs Crayons, who organised the whole thing, and did a fantastic job. I’m sorry I didn’t get any pictures of her in action, so you’ll just have to take my word for it that she was calm and unflustered the whole day!

Here are just some of the pictures I took.

I spent the day next to Christine, and was captivated by watching her work. She created the most adorable little hare, with an upturned face, and the sweetest expression. Unfortunately, I’m a little scared of bodyless scuptures, so when Christine started work on her next sculpture, she kindly started with some feet! It was great fun watching her work, and I went a little mad taking loads of pictures!

I also had the pleasure of meeting Mr Hook and Scumble and their delightful girls, and I managed to persuade them to let me take some pics. Very sweetly, Mr Hook gushed about how his daughters get their good looks from the beautiful mother!

After vowing I wasn’t going to spend ANY money AT ALL during the day, I broke down towards the end and blew my budget on a fantastic ring from Nicky. Oh well, I would only have spent that money on something for my kids…

This is where I brought my other treat of the day, this adorable resin bangle. Don’t you just love it?? I knew as soon as I saw it on the table that I was going to have to get it. And it turned out that Ms PennyDog has one just like it, so we were matching for the day.

I dragged the kids and other half along to a Halloween Party I had been invited to by a lovely couple I met at the Diva Launch party. I tried to persuade the girls into suitably spooky costumes, but we came out of the store with one pink High School Musical cheerleader and one pink Stephanie (from LazyTown). Sigh. Never mind, they did look cute.

The party was a blast! We all had a lovely time, the kids loved trick or treating - actually it was the first time any of us had done it. I was impressed by the lengths some people went to, with their houses and front gardens decorated with lots of spooky touches. What a fantastic night. Thanks to everyone for making us feel so welcome.

I am posting the remaining photos in a separate post (click here), so if you were there, contact me or Trev and Karen for the password to access them.
