Photos from a friend


One of Kendall's dance buddies, mother, dropped in these two photos from the concert to me on Friday. It is great to have other peoples's angles from concerts, eisteddfods etc as you generally are rushing around getting kids ready. They both looked like little stars in the shots so I couldn't resist using this star paper. I have cut a few out and mounted transparency underneath so I could remount them on the page in 3D. The chipboard word is also 3D mounted. Only four more sleeps......Merry Christmas

Just got home from sorting mail. What chaos there has been this year. The mail centre has had all sorts of problems; hopefully they will be ironed out on the weekend. People may refer to snail mail but there is a hell of a lot of snails posting big parcels this year. Yesterday at work we packaged huge things. Obviously people did not think about what they were buying and having to post away. Anyway, have not had much sleep this week. The kids are at Nanna's for the week so at least I'm not getting cranky with them. Can't wait til 5.00 p.m. Wednesday; think my next job might have nothing to do with Christmas lol. Received the Christmas card this morning in mail, seems even the elves are running behind this year.

Double Layout


A double lo which I completed yesterday. Still unsure whether I like it but it does represent a special day for Kendall.

Quick Post

Just a quick post to let you know that a slight storm has broken the heat. We should now have beautiful green grass for Christmas. When everything is green around you it feels cooler even when it is 32 degrees outside.

Have a great week

December Challenge-Scrapbooking Premiere


Sandra has put out the challenge again this month. I finished this lo last night and checked it over so many times to see if I had included all the elements required. I am quite happy with the result and thought I would share it with you all. Did I mention that it is really hot and humid today.....Oh blissful summer!!!!

Finally scrapping again



It was soooo hot here on the weekend, I put on the aircon in the office on Sunday and decided to scrap the school portraits of the kids. It was so nice to concentrate and feel comfortable, mind you on going outside the humidity nearly killed you. Finally we had a storm this afternoon so maybe it will be a little cooler tomorrow, (we live in hope!!!)

Award Day




Friday saw the school award parade. We were quite proud as Kendall received the Grade 3 HPE award. The photo of him is not so good as he was more interested in getting back to his class mates, but I have included the medal photos.
Christmas stuff is hotting up and we never seem to be home lately, dance break ups, concerts, carols, dinners out and work seem to be filling our days. Hope you had a good weekend!!
