I had not really thought about we were starting a new Decade until it was all over the news and Instagram of course!!!! To me it was just another New Year. However I have looked through our photographs from 2010 to 2019 and realised how much has happened in this Decade!!!
The Boys started the Decade Eldest becoming fifteen and Youngest eleven and 2019 celebrating being twenty four and twenty!!!! Their changes have been huge; finishing school and moving on to training for both of them for their jobs and working for the companies they really wanted to! Learning to drive and getting their first cars (!); Acting for both of them Eldest in the film “Testament of Youth” and Youngest in “Victoria”; Going on holiday with DH and I to Girlfriends coming along too! From swimming five days a week for both of them and then both being Captain of the Swimming Club, first Eldest and then Youngest taking over from him! Being in Scouts; playing the piano, doing exams and generally growing up!
DH and I celebrating our Twenty Fifth and Thirtieth Wedding Anniversaries; Visiting the USA in 2010 with our Boys, a wonderful holiday and also visiting The Highlands, Scotland and London for other holidays.
Work to say the least has not been the easiest of Decades with the global recession and engineering in particular but 2018/2019 did see an improvement which we are really hoping will continue into this Decade!!!!
People always say the years go by too quickly but I always say if you look back and see what you actually did during the year, it has flown by because you have been so active and crammed so much into the year. Having looked back on this last Decade I cannot believe what we have done, seen and got up to. It also really makes me appreciate my wonderful family, DH, Eldest, Youngest and Treacle.
I hope the New Year and next Decade is very happy for all my family, friends and followers.
Hugs & Love

Just a few of the pictures over the last Decade!!!! I could have added hundreds more but decided to stop with these!!!!
It’s amazing to see the changes in the boys. They do grow up quickly, don’t they. We just LOVE the framed photo of you and DH, Miss Susie. You remain the cutest ever, Treacle! Happy 2020!
You have been busy raising two wonderful boys into young men!! And running a business. And volunteering. And quilting! No wonder the years have flown by. I love how the men in your life tower over you!! How tall are you, Miss Susie?? Love the pictures…the boys with their first cars are so hysterical and typical of boys!!!
