Corian Matterhorn

Thanks to a customer in Staffordshire who has sent us a photo of their beautiful kitchen renovation. The customer recently had Corian 'Matterhorn' worktops installed following a template being done of their kitchen. We think it looks stunning and suits the kitchen perfectly.

BBC 2 - The Great Interior Design Challenge

I'm loving BBC 2's interior design competition programme at the moment, The great Interior Design Challenge. Amateur designers are let loose on rooms to show their design ability and creative flair. Considering these contestants have had no formal training, I'd say the results are almost always fantastic! This is what the website has to say about the programme which is currently in it's second series...

"The search for Britain's best amateur interior designers. Working in a variety of architectural styles, the contestants have three days to impress both the judges and the homeowners". http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04nj4d5

It's a really creative programme and although I've not been inspired to make any major decor changes to my own home, I have added an Interior Design board to Discount worktop Store's Pinterest page. http://uk.pinterest.com/discountw/

Not long now!

After three months in a breech position it looks like this baby is not for turning! Due  to that I've booked a c section for next Friday, 20th September. Five days earlier than my due date but I feel ready to meet baby Deary now :-)

Baby preparations

I will be 34 weeks pregnant this week so not too long to go now until the baby's arrival! Getting excited. We're more or less organised with all the big items and just need to get a few small bits and pieces. The baby's room has been decorated, just need a couple more pictures etc on the walls, the buggy and car seat arrived today and all clothes washed, ironed and folded in the wardrobe :)

Welcome Home flowers

We've been home for just over a week now and so have had chance to see most of our church friends. We received a lovely welcome last Sunday morning with a round of applause! On Friday Laurence and I received a beautiful bouquet of flowers from the Glasgow church to say 'welcome home'. The arrangement was stunning and massive so I had to get creative and divide it up into smaller bunches. They are a lovely reminder of how blessed we are to be part of such a huge group of people who care :)

Home Sweet Home

That's us been home for three days already. Can't believe how much we've packed into that time! My auntie Julie, gran, cousin and his girlfriend and daughter had come up from Manchester to surprise us at the airport with mum, George, Nicole & the Creightons. However the welcome party didn't go quite as planned as the flight was early and so only mum & George were there to meet us haha. The others trickled in to the airport in stages, it was quite funny! The Manchester group didn't make it to the airport at all and so just met us all at our house for tea and toast. By that time we'd been told they were coming :-D

Me, Nicole & Auntie Julie

The journey home was pretty quick but it was a night flight and I really wanted to try and get some sleep but wasn't able to.

On Saturday after arriving home, Nicole and I went to Braehead with Julie, Tom, Lowrell and Tianna for coffee and a look around. Then on Saturday night, after Laurence had picked up our new car we went for a drive to get a fish supper from our favourite chippy. Couldn't wait for one of those.

After a lovely welcome at church on Sunday we picked Vera up and went to Clare's for a Sunday roast and to see the Dearys. That was a lovely day of catching up and great food. The kids are all getting so big! They are excited about a new cousin (to add to the 21 there already is!!).

Today was for getting organised, housework, food shopping and unpacking. We also had Rosalind, Matthew and Anna over for tea before going back down to Inverclyde to pick up things we'd left in Laurence's sisters' houses that we forgot yesterday. Busy three days but very enjoyable and we are soooo glad to be home :)

The surprise visit was all too much for Tianna!
