I can't wait

My daughter Sophie who has been in mexico

 since New Years Eve is coming home on thursday. I am so excited, i haven't seen her face for five months so i cannot wait ( i know i have to though). She has been working as a volunteer in a childrens home in Reynosa.
I feel incredibly proud of her but have missed her terribly. I guess i'm one of those moms that want my daughters to stick around ( know what i mean), become adults here, get married here, have families of their own here................. (whacked out "yes")?
Anyway she's begged me to make chicken pie & mashed potatos for her home coming meal, i don't think she'll want to eat another tortilla or enchilleda for a least a year. so pie & mash it is followed by pavlova.

I had a mad rush on today to repaint her room, make new blinds & a few nice cushions for her bed. The paint is drying, the blind is almost ready but the cushions are done so here's a preview.
I have a fav online shop called Fabric shack, its brill, lots of beautiful collections & lots of bargains in their sale section, heaven for fabric lovers.

 Used these for the cushions, i think Sophie'll be pleased with them...........................

I'm dying to finish the room so busy day tomorrow
Will post the finished job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!xxxxxxxxxxx
Well i'm off to watch an episode of monarch of the glen, got the box set & i have to say its really entertaining  i'm enjoying it so much :)
Might even have some hot chocolate & a nutella cupcake ( if they weren't all gone)!
Have a sweet evening
Lots of love Karen xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
