Job changes

As it is now official Ican make a post about a job change in the Staniforth household. I'm leaving my teaching job to work full time as the worship director at St Thomas' Crookes, starting in September. I am so excited about the chance to do something I've always wanted to doand felt called to and looking forward to the fun and challenges ahead. It's a real testament to how God knows the desires of your heart and in his timing can make them come to fruition. My school have been great about me leaving and my Head of Department was very excited for me, again defiantly a God thing. so a time of lots of changes and new starts in the next 4 months!!!

House, House, House

Well sorry its been far too long since we last posted - we have become addicted to face book!! Also life at moment has become very busy. Work on our new house has begun and for the last 2 weeks we've been stripping wallpaper and ripping up carpets. The builders are now in and making lots of mess - and the kitchen fitter has begun the new kitchen. It's all very exciting but very tiring. If we're not at the house then we're at B&Q etc look at tiles or kitchen sinks! As an aside i never relised how expensive taps were. £100 for a kitchen tap!!!! crazy!!!! I'll post a few pic's showing the work so far when i've downloaded the camera.

Cyprus, sans beard

One of the conditions put upon me growing a beard is that i had to shave it off when went on holiday. So with much sadness in my heart and much joy in Becca's, i shaved it off and and did some facial hair experiments along the way.....

The beard - just like me dads!

'The Lemmy'

'The Morgan Spurlock'


'The John Lennon '67'

'The Hitlers 'Tache'

(however looks more like Captain Mainwaring from Dads Army !)

Will post with some other (less interesting) pics from holiday soon(ish).

The Inspectors have been

Well sorry it's been soooo long since I posted. Life in Sheffield has been rather crazy over the last few weeks.
I lost last week to the mists of time as we had OFSTED inspectors in school. My weekend was spent marking books and planning lessons, making multiple copies of everything and genurally not have alot of fun!! (I know I like admin but this taking it too far!)

They came and went in 2 days and thankfully they didn't come to see me. Of this a was soooo thankful - praise the Lord! The school did OK and i'm just glad that it over now for another 3 years.

Life has just about returned to normal and i've caught up on my sleep. Thanksfull we booked holiday in Nov for next week so looking forward to sitting on the beach and reading for a week. I'm sure lots of Adam's holiday pic will appear after so be warned, he loves taking pics.

Will try and be better at this blogging thing and post more soon.

Love ya all

Reality is an Illusion Caused by Lack of Alcohol

I've given up alcohol for lent. It's hell.

I'm growing a beard too! I look silly. It itches like buggery.

More proper news when something interesting happens.
