As you may already know, Children in Need was on Friday the 13th this year and because I was in placement at a primary school this year, I thought it would be fun to bake some cakes with Pudsey Bear and sprinkles on for the children.
I didn't have a clue how on earth I was going to make the Pudsey faces, all I knew was that I needed coloured icing and a cutter somehow...
Well, in the end I had to trace a picture of Pudsey from my computer and then copy it onto a cardboard cut out for me to be able to make my Pudsey Bear faces better. It took forever but there were amazing even if I do say so myself. Proper proud of myself!!!
I was up until like 2 in the morning making these... I put a lot of effort into them and at least the children all behaved as they knew there was cake on the go hahaha!! Luckily there were a few left over so I got to take the rest home.
This one was by far my best Pudsey face, I love it!!!
The best thing about being in placement is that I get to join in with all of the activities the children do to guide and support them even though I'm really enjoying them too hahaha!!
Halloween we were allowed to dress up as someone from Harry Potter and for Children in Need I dressed up as a super hero and donated to the charity and did my bit... did you do yours??
Let me know if you did anything like this for Children in Need, it's such a great cause!!
Hope you have all had a great week and keep sending you're thoughts and prayers to all the families in Paris, no one should ever have to go through anything like that!!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while... I have been feeling quite ill over the past two weeks and I'm getting so much college work to do and hand in now I have to priorities with that at the moment so I will get posts up as and when I can.
Some of you will know (if you follow me on twitter *hint hint*) that I have had a stressful and bad week last week with a large amount of college work and then on Wednesday night my rabbit Tink passed away. She was more like a dog than a rabbit but we were all really upset and shocked but she wasn't herself and she is out of pain now.
Then Friday night we had the dreadful news of the attacks in France that literally saddened the world and thinking about everyone at that awful time!! Also, about the other events which happened on the Friday night, thinking and praying for everyone effected by these events.
(This is my own image took in 2013 from my trip to Paris with my school. Quite proud of this too!!)
But hopefully I will attempt to get two posts up a week, trying my very best!! Thank you all for your support and for you all for reading my blog too!! Appreciate it so much!!

Now Halloween and Bonfire night are over and done with, it is now the countdown to Christmas with a lot of Christmas related things happening which I cannot wait for!!
There are many things that happen from November onwards that make you say "It's Christmas". I know because I do this allll the time!! I have say this at least once a day possibly more...For me there are about 5 things that happen to make me say "It's Christmas!"
1. When the advert for "I'm a Celebrity" comes on the TV, which was in October, that's one sign to say Christmas is almost here. When the advert came on this year during the XFactor I think I screamed that loud the whole street heard me!! I love I'm a Celeb!!
2. Going through the Town Centre and seeing shops with Christmas related gifts and clothing. I have seen a lot of Christmas jumpers and socks and I reallllly want them all!! Oh, and can't forget the Christmas candles!!
3. This has just recently happened this Friday... the release of the John Lewis advert!!
I think this is the advert of the beginning of Christmas adverts, once this one has been on, all of the rest follow. If you haven't seen it, you need to!! A tear came to my eye watching it (like always)
4. When the days start getting shorter and starts getting colder and all you want to do is stay inside with a warm drink and cuddles in front of the TV. The Polar Express has already been on the TV too which got me realllly excited because it's my all time favourite Christmas Film.
5. And finally, the time you know Christmas is here is with one specific advert... THE COCA COLA ADVERT!!!! Once this advert has been on, that's when Christmas is here!! It was on TV a year ago today during XFactor again, so my eyes will be glued to the TV hoping for it to be on today!!!
These are some of the things that make me feel so Christmassy and how I know Christmas is not that far away!! I just want to put my Christmas tree up now, is that acceptable yet???

My post totally deleted last Friday so I wasn't able to do my Follow Friday post, but I have plenty of time to get this weeks 'FF' up. To make it easier for my self to be able to get the post's up in time, I'm going to do 5 bloggers for each Follow Friday.
Here we gooooo!!
Also a fellow Disney lover which is great!! Her blog is beautiful and well set out. I really enjoy reading each of her posts especially her "understanding and managing anxiety" post, well worth the read and helpful!!
Helena's blog is great!! I love her images her photography is amazing! Her last two post's were sooo good too, the Degusta box post made me want to order it so much and we both have a thing for good organisers hahaha!! Go check it out its great!!
At the moment Emmie's blog is so autumny and makes me feel so warm inside when I am reading it. It also feels like I'm talking to Emmie personally when I'm reading her blog which I like!! I really like her "16 things before 2016" post, very interesting to read.
I have only just recently started following Libby on twitter and looked at her blog and I really enjoyed reading it!! Libby deserves more followers and people reading her blog. It is a chatty blog and doesn't talk about the usual things a blogger does which I think is so unique and needs to be recognised more!!
Jasmine is such a lovely girl and she definitely needs more recognition with her blog too!! She puts a lot of effort into her posts (as does everyone else). I really loved her recent Disney post and her October Favourites post. Her guinea pig is the cutest ever!!!
These are my 5 Follow Friday bloggers for this week who deserve this recognition for having such great blogs!! I love each and every one of them!!
Have a great weekend everyone!!
