It's lucky that I am not precious about my age as my grandson Will has told everyone he's met - since about January - that his nanny Col will be half of a hundred on her birthday, but he's only half of ten (he will be lucky to reach half of twelve LOL!). Don't you just love kids!
Anyway to celebrate reaching the half of a hundred (LOL!) milestone, I thought I would offer some Birthday Blog Candy, it will run from today until Midnight on Sunday 22nd May. All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is leave me a birthday message in the comments section of this post.
I will put all the names into a draw and announce the winner on Monday 23rd (evening), so don't forget to check back then just in case it's you!
I am lucky enough to be on the design teams of some lovely and very generous designers who have all donated something to my candy.
Nikky - Polkdoodles - Double Sprinkles of Kraft CD rom
Wendy - Clipart Fairy - Creative Card Fronts CD rom
Gayle - Teddy Bo and Co - not shown but winner will receive, a mounted hand drawn trio by the artist herself and a Teddy Bo Trio download from her store.
Also included will be a Teddy Bea shopping tote, and a Teddy Bea watch (these are items I have had printed myself) along with various embellishments.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My local council hold a lot of events in the parks around the borough for people to get involved in, they vary from hedgerow surveys, mini beast hunts, planting hanging baskets, bowls taster sessions, building bird boxes, and crafts for kids (all free of charge). I have a park right in front of my house so don't have far to go to join in with whatever is going on there. Yesterday I took Will to a scarecrow making workshop. All materials are provided, so Will could pick from a variety of different things to make his scarecrow. This is what we ended up with.
Don't forget to leave your comment to be in with a chance of winning the candy.

A wee birthday verse from me to you,
It's not very young
nor is it old.
It's just in the middle
or so we are told.
Still, I am younger
and so thrilled to be,
I’m glad you are 50
and that it’s not me!
Very Happy 100/2 Birthday Colette.
Hope you have a great day.
Will is so gorgeous.
