Friday day i helped mom round the house and i also had to sort out wrapping JTs pressies. The paper i painted was quite thick, so i ended up using the paper to make a gift bag. It actually came out really well and i even used ribbon for the handles :-) ok thats enough showing off hee hee.
My nephew arrived about 6.30 and then JT arrived at 8pm ish. They both seemed to get on really well and we had a really nice evening in. Saturday was going to be a manic day so i managed to pursuade JT that we needed to swap pressies once it had got past midnight ;-) I did agree to open our cards on the saturday though.
This is what we got eachother.
My pressies- A oil burner with a rose sented oil.
A small dog teddy with stringy legs ( very cute) at the moment its on my mirror in my room, but
when i hopefully pass my driving test, it will go in my first car.
He also made me a huge chocolate brownie which he cut out into a heart shape (awwwwww)
JTs pressies- As he loves baking i got him some cheesy heart shaped cookie cutters :-)
Also he really likes the Dilbert cartoons, so i printed out some of the three window cartoons and
put then in frames. I even put them on a blue backing as blue is his fave colour. I really hoped he
liked them.
He even remembered that i like blue nose bears, so that is what my card was of. He really is a sweety.
Saturday morning we had to get up early as we were going out for the day with my dad and nephew. It was a really nice day and then in the evening we went to Sophia's a wonderful italian restaurant. We nearly didnt get in though. Usually you arnt allowed to book as its so popular, but when we got there we found out i could have booked for valentines. The wait was about an hour, so we decided to have a look for somewhere else, but they were also busy, so we went back to Sophia's. We thought we would have to wait for ages, but we were seated within about 40mins, so that was brilliant and the meal was lovely.
Sunday morning we went to my church and then we were meeting my brother and his girlfriend for lunch. After that we popped to Ikea and then came back to my parents house. After about half an hour he had to go home
:-( It has been a really nice weekend and even if there was no pressies involved i was so glad that he was here, as that is more important than what we buy eachother. I will be seeing him again on thursday evening so thats good news.
Im back at work tomorrow morning at 8am. This week as gone really quick. Its going to be a manic week as my boss is on holiday so i am completely in charge at work. The last time she was off, there was a load of extra work to get sorted. This time its our fundraising week and also half term for the schools. I really hope things run smoothly and nothing too major happens.
