Children in Need

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!!

Trip to Tweddle Farm

Today I took a trip out with my cousins to Tweddle Farm where I have not been in yearssss!! The last time I was there was when I went up with the Kids Club I was part of at the time to go to Santa's Grotto, and that was when I was 9. I am almost 18. It has changed soooo much!!! But I loved it!! 

I still got to pet the rabbits and of course I couldn't leave them all out...As soon as I stroke one, the whole lot of them in that pen came over and this was the outcome. As you can tell, I love rabbits (and animals).

These rabbits are the ones I realllly want!! Giant rabbits!! They look so cute a cuddly. I think they are probably the size of a puppy if I am honest!!

Now this parrot never shut up. It literally sounded like it was a screaming child at one point and all it wanted you to do was to stroke it's head. If you stopped, it would start squawking again. Later on when we came back, it was having a conversation with another Bird other in the other enclosure shouting "Hello" back and forth. It was also loving the camera.

I always manage to fit Disney into my posts somewhere... I found Cinderella!!! 

The farm is split into different sections, so first we were in the rabbit barn and then we headed over to the baby animal barn which I loved so much!!! I didn't get a picture of the cows though as it kept trying to steal my food I had for the animals... I also liked how they named their baby lambs after the 7 dwarfs too!

Little baby Lama too :)

These pigs would not shut up either. 

Heading out of the baby animal barn we found this picture option moment thing, so me and my cousin Kyle decided to jump in.

This monkey was the cutest little monkey I had ever seen. There were two of them but I think the other one was camera shy.

Literally had a race with these goats all because they wanted the food in my bag for them. They had their own little bridge to get over to the other side too. I loved it!!

Yes Donkey, It is okay for you to constantly lick the fence?

This is me on a Sunday afternoon when I have just ate my Sunday Dinner and I'm too tired to do anything. Hahaha!!

THERE WAS A CHRISTMAS TREE AND I BECAME SOOOO EXCITED!!! 

But when it came to taking the picture I had to delete some photos so I was stood there for a good 5 minutes deciding which photos were the best ones to take a photo of the Christmas tree...

So this was my day out to Tweddle Farm. I love it here so much, it just reminds me of all the times I used to go when I was little and It's changed so much. When I was little I think it had only just opened and wasn't a lot there and now it is much bigger and more animals and different barns to go into. So glad it is still in business!! 

I am an animal lover too so when my Mam said that's where she was going I couldn't say no!! 

Hope you had a lovely day!! Send me your links on twitter :)

Kevs 18th Birthday!!

Last week was Kev's 18th Birthday which he has been waiting for all year. It's a shame I have to wait until April but hopefully it will fly by!! 

It was such a great night!! We went out for a meal in a hotel on the sea front with his family and I thought it was lovely!! The hotel was lovely too. I had a Chicken Parmo, which is a Northern food and for those who don't know what it is, it is breaded chicken covered in 2 layers of cheese and it is one of my favourite foods ever!!

I know down south, some people haven't even heard of a Chicken Parmo, My cousins husband always has to get one every time they come home to visit. Anyway, I really enjoyed my meal but kev didn't, he doesn't like much food which is weird because I love my food hahaha!!  

And of course, because he was finally 18 he had to go and buy his first pint, which ended up being one of 7. He was soooo funny!! I literally couldn't stop laughing, I'm pretty sure I had to go to the toilet about 3 times I was laughing at him that much. We were leaving the hotel and he got up to leave first and shouted, "Come on Power Rangers, Let's Go!" I was laughing so much it just came from no where hahaha!! And once we got back home he was soon throwing up and me looking after him and putting him to bed. I won't go into details because it was disgusting hahaha!!

On the Friday we didn't do anything apart from sitting in with kev having a hangover and the hangover cure of Mcdonald's to the rescue!! 

Then Saturday, we had a trip to Newcastle to go shopping which is a nightmare on the train because there are never ever any seats as my town is where most people get on the train. I had never been to Newcastle shopping before and it wasn't the best, I think I will stick the the Metro Centre from now on. But it was so busy because me being me I totally forgot the Rugby World Cup was on so everywhere we went was the sound of bagpipes.  

However, I did get some lovely tops from new look which I will add photos in an October Haul because they are in the washing at the minute hahaha!! I did get some good photos as well. 

I took this photo just outside of the Eldon Square Shopping Centre and I thought it was really unusual and I really liked it so why not take a photo? 

Then, we came across this monument of Earl Grey which was surrounded by lots of Rugby Fans but still managed to get a good photo. Also, Is this who Earl Grey tea is named after? It sounds so stupid to ask that but it is a genuine question hahaha!! If you know, let me know!! 

This photo has to be my favourite from that day. This was took on the train back from Newcastle and the train was going pretty fast, as trains do of course, and I was so pleased with myself that this photo turned out to look so good!! This is one of the best photo's I have ever took, but I really can't wait until I get my new camera to take much better quality photos!!

That was my busy week last week and is the reason why I wasn't blogging last week and also because I was ill the week before and beginning of this week too, but I'll be back to normal soon, hopefully!! 

Hope you have had a great weekend!!

It's been a while

Hey guys, sorry its been a while I have either been very busy with college or other things, or very tired because of college. Starting a new college and getting into a routine again is tiring!! But hopefully I will be more organised soon!!

Iv'e been meaning to post a while now and I did have a post all written and ready to upload yesterday but for some reason it disappeared or deleted so I am halfway through writing it... again!! I really hope you understand, hopefully once I am back into a routine I will be able to figure out when I can upload posts so they can all be regular days. I will try my hardest to write posts and upload them when I can but I am not going anywhere!!

Thank you all for reading my blog still it means so much!! I didn't even think anyone would be interested in reading my blog, I hope you are all enjoying it!! It has even had a make-over too... 

(If anyone knows how to work blogger more than me and how to set out more 'attractable' layout designs, please message me on twitter, I would be so grateful.)

Also, if you would like to see my write about certain posts please, give me some suggestions I would love to hear from you all!!
