IOW holiday pictures and the paralympics

Hi,

 

As promised I have complied some of my best pics I took while on holiday :) Hehehe, I hope you enjoy them. I love to share my holiday with you all! :0)

 

Here are some of the beautiful koi in the ponds at Butterfly world, I really enjoyed seeing them all, so many pretty colours and patterns:

 

 

Hehehe, a monkey having his lunch at monkey world- such a cute little guy!:

 

As I mentioned me and my brother made dinner for my parents a couple of evenings, but as I also mentioned I forgot to take a picture of the first meal before we ate it all, lol! I did remember for the second meal though so here are the dough balls and pasta bake we made :)

 

Everyone enjoyed it so I was happy :D

 

We stayed at Sandown this time. It has a really nice old fashioned sea side feel there. Here is a sunny view of the beach!:

 

 

There is always good stuff to buy in the IOW that is one of the reasons I love there so much. These are the beautiful masquerade style masks my mum treated me to:

 

 

and here are the cross stitch kits too...

 

 

.... I am very lucky! :-)

 

 

This is the little seaside bear stitch kit I finished, very appropriate seeing as I was staying at the seaside, lol!

 

That is all my holiday snaps..... for now, hehehe :P I will post a picture of my vintage dresses nearer my birthday and a picture of the monster high doll dress when it is finished :)

 

In other news- yesterday I went to the see some of the Paralympics, we had a day pass so I got to see two events in the end. I saw wheelchair basketball and goal ball, I hadn't ever seen either of them before (like when I saw handball at the Olympics- I hadn't seen that before either) so it was very interesting. They were both enjoyable to watch and it was fun to see different stadiums/arenas too :0)

 

See you all very soon,

 

Bye :0)
