BRENDAS PHOTO CHALLENGE ~ NUMBERS!!

It is time for Brendas photo challenge again and I have had great fun with this one ~ the theme of which is NUMBERS ~ chosen by Karen over at loved and engraved.



It seemed that there were just numbers everywhere ~ and I ended up with about 20 photos ~ so I decided to enlist the help of my two little stars ~ to choose which photos they liked best!!

Here are what they chose.............



Numbers on my favourite clock in the kitchen!!












Numbers on my most favourite thing ~ the telephone (anyone would think I was never off the thing ~ the way my children describe it ~ tee hee!!)


More numbers ~ another telephone ~ this time a toy phone for the little children!!











Yes ~ for this weeks photo challenge we incorporated a little bit of baking and some cake decorating and ..... ta da ~ fairy cakes with butter icing and chocolate NUMBERS!!!!!!












Dan very kindly posed in his England shirt ~ displaying his favourite number 9!!!!!!











A counting poster ~ with lots and lots of numbers!!!











lauren helped out too ~ finding a number counting book!!
Yet again I have enjoyed the challenge so much and am waiting to hear who the next host will be and what the theme will be. My camera is ready for the next photo challenge!!!!!

Hi Amanda ~ it was great fun and I really love these challenges!!
The chocolate numbers are from a little easter set that I have got ~ you melt the chocolate into the mould and then let it cool and pop them out!! Dan and Lauren ate LOADS of them ~ aswell as the cakes ha ha ~ I was lucky to get a photo at all!! XXXXX

Ho Tabitha,
I just loved this project of yours. Such a fun and interesting thing to do and amazingly simple.
Hope the dance concert went well. Can't wait to see all the pictures and to see how beautiful Lauren looked. The battery was fully charged on the night I hope.
Time for some rest and relaxation this comming week for you and Lauren and Daniel.
P.S. I have experienced some difficulty posting on your blog. Don't know why. Here goes.
Love and Hugs XXXXOOOO
