Jeans Story

Hi Guys, Many of you who call into this blog every now and again know my friend Jean McCracken. She is going through a very difficult path with breast cancer. Jean has just gone through surgery. She wants to share her story with as many people as possible so she has started a blog. Please check it out in the days ahead and I guarantee you that you will be blessed, as I know I have.

You can find her blog here.

Jack 10

With all that was happening over the last few days I forgot about Jacks Birthday being on Saturday. He was over tonight so took a few snaps of him skipping. Time passes by so quickly its just so hard to believe.

My Saturday

Breakfast with JT. A little shopping for all things Blue, Up to the Anglers Rest to meet Mum & Dad for lunch (Pensioners Buss Run). Then up to the hospital to see Elaine and the wee! man. Have tea out with Lorraine. All these are Priceless, for everything else there's Mastercard!

Nathan John Lewis

Let me introduce you to our Grandson Nathan John Lewis, Hes was born today at 13.20 hours. He weighed in at 8lbs 9 oz.
Elaine and Jonathan had a very long, hard journey together to bring Nathan into the world. As you can see is doing great. It was wonderful just to hold him tonight up at the hospital although I don't think it has fully sunk in, it was all a bit surreal.
The little red and black hat was specially knit for him in anticipation of going to watch and support Crusaders Football Team, just like his fathers who had the same done for him many years ago..

Teddies

Lorraine's friend Shirley asked her to knit a few Teddies as she was making a trip to Uganda in the summer. This is the line up. I think they are very good and all have a character of their own. My personal favourite is victor with the red jumper.

Star Wars walk on part for me!!

To my surprise I received a phone from Luke (Skywalker) of Friday. He was more or less in a tight spot as they had started filming for the next Star Wars film and they were desperately short of Storm troupers. I jumped at the chance and rushed home to try on my new costume. Apparently I am going to be on set every day and wearing the new costume and accessories for the next 6 weeks.

Lorraine took a couple of photos what do you think?????
