What a lovely treat Lucy - to see you posting at the weekend. I am glad to see that you have the Wonderful Weekend book and I bet yours is a wonderful weekend. I've had my nose in Country Living magazine this week too as well as a pile of other magazines. I bet your little ones love having you as a Mummy. Each weekend is a celebration!

Your house looks lovely for Valentines Luce. I love the bright colored hearts. They look so cute hanging around like the ones at our house. I love it when my girls make decorations with their own little bitty hands. Those always looks best to me. I always keep one of any of their decorations from time to time to remember what their handwriting was like, etc.
Have a great weekend doing whatever Luce! Toodles!

What a happy surprise...sneaking a peek over here and seeing a Valentine's Day post. Okay...where do I begin...those sweet little children of yours have inherited their mother's creativity. They must be giggling their little faces off seeing their charming decorations hanging up. I spy....mmmmmm...some yummy coffee...some fabulous reading material (I want Elspeth book so bad!!!!) some really cool heart socks....and a lovely dotty plate with some yummy-licious chocolate hearts. My heart feels pure blissful joy reading this post....thanks my lovely Lucy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
