It's Monday! What Are You Reading?



A weekly event hosted by Sheila from One Persons Journey Through a World Of Books to discuss your reading week ~ the books you've read and those you plan on reading in the coming week.

Well this week was a very busy one, which I didn't take into account when challenging myself to complete reviews, but I did manage to post one review and finish one book. Happily my chaotic week finished on a high note with my youngest son turning 16 on Saturday. We spent a fun weekend with family and friends playing card games, swimming, eating all Cal's favourite foods and we saw Iron Man 2 at the movies. Thought I'd share a few photos; Callum, (left) Anthony and of course beautiful Bella didn't miss out on the photo opportunity. Next photo shows Bella worn out from the big day and then ratbag Bella after she destroyed her teddy bear!

I'm hoping to have a competition up in the next day or two,  it's been a quite a while since I've had one, so be sure and check back. Have a wonderful week everyone :-)
