Just in case you noticed, I've been eerily quiet over the past week. I've been away, on a little jaunt to celebrate the father in law's big 60th birthday/annual family holiday. My crew, plus the rest of the husband's family (12 of us in total) took over a rather wonderful villa in Pollensa, Mallorca for a week of doing not very much at all.
The small fry enjoyed plenty of this...
and this...
(chocolate mousse for breakfast - yes please!)
We all sat round and listened to the wise old Grandad tell us tales of his youth....
(although my brother in law on the left looks like he's heard this tale a few times before)
And did plenty of lazing about in the sunshine (I'll not share pics of us all in our smalls - it might put you off visiting again), drinking, eating and a whole lot of laughing.
All in all a great time was had by all. Roll on next year.
So, I've had both a change and a rest now. There are no excuses, I really do need to get more of the WIP list finished. It's good to go away, but always nice to come home to a doorstep piled with fabric filled parcels and the knowledge that I can back to sewing.

Sounds like you had a wonderful time!
When you say the small fry enjoyed plenty of 'this' - do you mean flying???
I already wondered what you were up to! Looks like you all had a great time over there and the villa looks so lovely! Your 'Dutch treat' is coming along nicely btw, will post it before the end of the month! x
Looks like you had a lovely time. Looking forward to our holiday too. Jane x
I'm sure no-one would object to pics of your hunky hubby in his skinnies!!
Looks a fabulous place - and I wish I had been smuggled in your suitcase.
Can't wait to see what your packages produce next xx
Oh my god, that looks fab. But, next holiday can you please come to California?!?!?!

Looks like so much fun !!
Fantastic villa , lucky you .
Welcome back.
My goodness. I'm glad you put the wiki link there, because I've never even heard of that place! Glad you had a good time.
Ohhhh. Jealous of the holiday and the holiday and the fabric parcels ... Glad you had great time!
So pleased you had a good time but really...it's winter here - I am sick with envy.
I thought it was 'change is as good as a holiday'? Is that just how we Australians say it?! There hasn't been much change, rest or any holidays here, so I'll have what your having!! :)
what a lovely vacation!! I was wondering what happen to you...that "little" villa looks like such a lovely place to rest, and regroup as family.
Family, Fun and Food!! Just the best!!
WOW! Sounds like a fabulous trip!
I could use a change... and a rest as well! Ah, to dream.
