Update

Well there has been a little delay on the commencing work. Hopefully next week I will be right into it. Cameron is already talking about renovating the kitchen and he also mentioned that we could maybe look at taking that trip to America. I have on a few occasions said that I would love to take the kids to Disneyland and also to see their family over their. But he always says no - too much money. You know he is an accountant..... LOL.

Anyway I have taken the opportunity the last couple of days to just sit and scrap. And that is what I did. I have spent the time finishing all those unfinished pages. I ended up finishing off about 25 layouts. I have used the KISS method. Maybe I can start on some new pages. I will keep you posted.

Have you seen my Kirsty......

My beautiful girl decided she wanted her hair cut. Well as you all know I so love Kirsty's long hair and never want her to cut it short. Well I decided that she is seconds away from turning 10 (yes that's right 10) and thought she is getting old enough to make some decisions for herself.

BEFORE:




AFTER:


She looks so more grown up now. Though I will share something with you. As Stef was making the first cut I had butterflies and knots in my stomach. But she looks just as beautiful. Don't you think???????????

These are her pigtails which I HAD to keep. And you know what I am going to do with them...... That's right put them in her album. It is a shame though as I cut her hair about a month ago and cut about 2 inches off it.

Best go and hug that girl again before she totally grows up and I miss out.

Lamingtons

Some time ago I was selling lamingtons for the Coral Coast Christian School. Well they are again doing a lamington fund raiser. So if you would like to purchase some lamingtons then drop me an email or leave a comment. I am sure they have the cake made and they (the parents) do the rest. And they will be as yummy as the last batch.

They are $7 for a dozen. Come on put some in your freezer or just eat them straight away. I just need to know by Wednesday 29 October so I can let the mums at the school know.

Looking forward to hearing from you all.

One Week

That's right only one more week left until I start my training. Some would say that I am crazy but I am so looking forward to returning to work. I'm sure Cameron is thinking of reverse roles - me at work and him at home. Not going to happen he needs to learn how to cook.... LOL

Well best go and get the house all sorted before I loose my free days.

Busy Weekend

We have had a very busy weekend. We went camping with Bundaberg SDA Adventurers. Who you say, well it is like scouts but it is done through our church. We camped in tents at one of the leaders property. One for the boys and one for the girls. I was fortunate to be in the girls tent. (being that I am a girl I suppose) I don't think the girls got to sleep before 10pm and then they woke up at 5am.



All 7 girls needed to go to the toilet AT 5AM. I did tell them to tie it in a knot but as I was so tired I now realise I should have told them to put a peg on it. But I got out of bed and took them all to the toilet. Now you would think that since it was 5am that they would want to go back to sleep. NOOOOOOOOOOO, they decided that they needed to have a pillow fight.



Well I suppose camping is all about waking up early. But we did all have a great time. We finished up the weekend with a visit to Kelly's Beach. As you can tell from Kirsty she had a great time swimming in the sand. Yes I do think that some of the children forgot that water is for swimming in and sand is for building sand castles. ( I did tell Kirsty tonight that the police were likely to come and arrest her as she had stolen so much sand) LOL




Friends are angels

how to fly.


Thank you for all your emails and phone calls.

Celebrity Sighting

Have you seen today's NewsMail......... Well I haven't but I have had LOTS of phones calls about page 17. Apparently there is a picture of me with the write up of the Fund Raiser that Petrina and Cassie are organising this Saturday at TCAC. At first I thought "What the" but now I just laugh as I think it is a bit funny.

For those that are concerned that my photo is there I have rectified the situation and it appears that Newsmail were after a photo for the story and looked on file and found this one of me from a couple of years ago so they thought it would be OK to use. I told them that I was OK with it in the end, as if it sells more tickets for this fund raiser then who really cares.

No I am not going, for those that were going to ask.

That's my MUM.......

Well my mum has now lost over 30 kgs in 5 months. Oh my goodness. Just check out how great she looks. I am still trying to find a picture of her before but as she didn't like photos taken, I'm not sure if I have one. But check out those pants that she used to fit into. You could nearly put another person in there. Way to go Mum. So proud that you have finally got there.



Go on leave mum a comment.
