It was my birthday today and I received a parcel from Australia from my lovely daughter who had made me this fabulous hand made bag
and matching purse - I am so in love with it- it is really beautifully made and the fabrics coordinate so well
this lovely little book was enclosed called "The Miggy Tree" by Karl Yeomans with wonderful illustrations by Anna Walker. The story is really heart warming and was dedicated to the author's mother - sadly he died in 2006 aged just 33 years. These are such precious gifts - thank you so much Becky. 
I spent the day at a barbecue in my friends garden and had a really good time eating and drinking far too much and enjoying the perfect weather today, which ended in a huge thunderstorm ... then watched Andy Murray winning a tennis match at Wimbledon so I had a day to remember...
sounds like a lovely day! Glad you were pleased with your presents xx
