Grow Your Blog 2014
Hi everyone.
I'm adding my post a wee bitty late, but don't they say better late than never, I certainly hope that is what they say :))
I had found out about this great link up a while back and decided to put my name down.
What a great idea for a link up by the way!!! It is run by Vicki at 2 bags full - you should go and have a look at her blog!
Anyway a little bit about myself.
I'm Ellie, pleased to meet you!
I live on the west coast of Scotland and I'm a wife, mum to 3 lovely girls and gran to my very first grandchild, a lovely wee lad called Riley who is 10 months old now :)) Let me tell you it is great to be a gran and I love it!
My three daughters are 24, 22 and my youngest just turned 19. Phew when did they get so grown up. That's the trouble with life - it just rushes by when you least expect it !!!
My interests - I love to take pictures even though I've slipped a wee bit at that, however I got a new camera for my Christmas and once this awful weather we are having gets better I'm getting back out there to take some piccies. The rain and wind are certainly non conducive to good picture taking.
My new camera is a Canon SX500 - a bit bigger and better than my last point and shoot. I love a point and shoot camera for ease of carrying I can just slip it into my bag. You just never know when that special shot will appear.
I also love to read be it a blog, book or magazine. Blogging is such a great way to 'meet' people from all around the world.
I have lots of things I'd love to have a go at! Sewing, knitting, baking. I've done a little of all of them but not got into them in a big way. I have an awful habbit of starting something and not finishing it for some reason or other.
My husband (Danny) and myself had a fab holiday in the States late last year to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary and now I just want to explore the world, lol. I think I may just have to win that elusive lottery!
Wish me luck :))
It will be nice to meet some new bloggers.
Have fun reading some of the lovely blogs on this wonderful link up.

I love Scotland. One of my favorite trips was a vintage coach tour of the highlands and Islands of Scotland in 1986 and I've dreamt of returning there ever since there ever since.I will be following your blog to hear about your life there. Please drop by my blog for a visit.
