In need of a happy post:

I'm currently having a major stress, time for another happy post!
Lovely Prada shoes help to make it better:
And a lovely Hello Kitty: A surprise present from my parents one Christmas. Yes, I like the word 'lovely'. :)
Tomorrow it's my dad's birthday! =D Time to ice the cake after I've posted this. (shh) ;) And tomorrow we will be going out for lunch and then to Shugborough, a local National Trust property my parents like going to (a lot). I quite like it to, it has pretty gardens, guinea pigs to visit and nice chairs in the house.
There are lots of cute bunnies at the farm. Aren't they cute!

Tatton

I had a lovely time at Tatton Park today. I found this lovely little mirror (pictured above) in the gift shop, I had actually been wanting one and I couldn't resist this adorable design. I also bought 'The Seventies in Pictures', this is one of a darling little set of books of which I already own the 40s, 50s and 60s. Where the rest of the century is I'm not quite sure, but they are very informative with some great photos.
I also acquired this beautiful rose today, when I happened to be there as a kind gardener snipped it off my accident. I threaded it through my mum's woven bag.

I finally got round to subsricing to Grazia a little while ago and my first issue came today which also makes me happy. =D

An animal photographer's life is not easy..
I took the above photos of butterflies today at Shugborough estate. They were not overly co-operative. =)
But they were very well behaved compared to the dragonfly(s) below. There were at least two, but they would just not keep still! Not once did I see one pause or land. So it was lots of fun trying to get these pictures!
