The girls really enjoyed having them there and it was lovely to see them having so much fun together.
Roy and I are really going to miss our regular nights in with them.
Tomorrow sees the proper and final farewells..for now. It's not something I am looking forward to but I know that it will come and go and that we will all get through it in our own way.
I gave Jen "the project" which I have to admit, I am really pleased with and I think she is too. I really enjoy making little gifts for others, I hope, to enjoy and I get so much from seeing the smile on the recipients face.
Jen gave me a card and a little desktop book of inspirational quotes. Thank-you Jen. I was really touched and yes, it made me shed a few tears.
I have been inspired recently by Janine's blog to choose a word for the year that I can apply to the daily aspects of my life. After some thought I have chosen the word: ORGANISE
I have so many cupboards and drawers that need a good clear out and be organised
I need to get organised and do my laundry etc. more regularly
I must organise the girls toys into appropriate storage (preferably from IKEA)!!
The list goes on...but you get the general idea.
I leave you now with some photos of the project:

I do really love the "project"! I can't wait to unpack it and display it wherever we may end up living! Thank you for last night - we too will miss our nights in! Don't forget to send me the recipes for the curry..for old time's sake! Jx
Thank you for last night! I like the quote "that we will all get through it in our own way" - we all know what that means!
Having just done it, my advice on a good way of organising one's house is to move to NZ! We seem to have got rid of sooooo much.
Anyway, time will pass by very quickly. Make sure you all keep in touch!

I just had to respond - my first time ever! I don't know how you are all going to feel tomorrow, but you "will all get through it". Having read your blogs and Jenni's over the last few weeks, you have both had me close to tears. At least in this technological age in which I think I may have just a few toes! At least you will all be able to keep in touch so easily. The miles will seem like just down the road. Judith, I really loved your "project" and I am sure Jenni (and Ben) will treasure it always. I am very jealous of your talent.
Better go and do something useful now - like make tea. Will be thinking of you all tomorrow.
