Crafts, bowling, award, Harvest Festival

Aren’t these beautiful against the blue sky?
I’ve been playing with felt. The above will be a penny rug. The people at Patched Pumpkin helped me choose a tasteful colour combination. Many thanks.
Irene at Patched Pumpkin helped me make this Christmassy one. I love these subtle colours.
Son’s delayed birthday party happened- we began by taking him and his friends bowling.

Son in action.
He had a couple of these and was in the lead by one point after 10 rounds.
It was just me left to go. I did this.
And somehow I won by 4 points with an extra go. I’m still not sure why I got this extra go. I think there are people still in therapy having tried to explain the rules of cricket to me so no one was willing to try with bowling. 🙂
Son took defeat well and sat in an electric chair. LOL I turned lovingly to hubby and said in a very Adams Family way “Oh look darling he’s having his very first electric chair”. Morticia would’ve been so proud. 🙂
We took everyone for a pizza where all the teenage boys wanted a balloon. They sounded like chipmunks in the car as we dropped them off.
I found they made pretty shadow patterns on the ceiling. Sorry- bit blurry.

Daughter finally collected a trophy she won on Sport’s day in the Summer. She was the best athlete in year 10. So proud of her. 🙂 I’m not sure why it has a football on.
Ok we’re back at Halsall Church for Harvest Festival. I went snap happy so we’re going to be here for a few posts. I’ll keep words to a minimum as this is pic heavy.

All the sills were decorated.
The south facing windows and altar are yet to come.
I hope you enjoy seeing this as much as I did.
