Family


For anyone who has read my blog in the past especially the posts about my Fabulous jumpers (look at any post with the label 'A Nanas touch'), you will realise that family is very important to me.

I may not have the biggest family in the world but we are very close and I have a lot of family friends that are also known as my Auntie and Uncles that I love with all my heart I don’t know what I would do without them. My sister and I are very lucky girls to have so many Uncles a lot of them have motorbikes which is very cool but even cooler my Mums Brothers travel the world.

As a young girl I have these amazing memories of them coming home at New Year with a new Chinese dress or dolls from all over the world, all of them different all of them special. They didn’t come home very often but when they did it was always fun filled...

I am writing this post as I sit on the bus travelling home to see my family as very sadly my Mums Brother, my Uncle David passed away  on Friday morning. He was an amazing man he saw so many places, he could speak so many languages and always had something interesting to tell you. He lived such a full life but still had so much more to see and do.

I will leave you on this note; Life is short and if you are away at Uni or travelling the world remember to live life to the full, regret nothing and most of all cherish the moments you have with your family. If you see them once a year or everyday it is their wee stories and your memories that mean the most.

Uncle Johnny, Uncle David, Mummy Marjory and Sister Marjory

Love a fancy dinner :)
