All Things Crafty: Look what I won........

What a busy month. I can't believe it has been over a month since I last blogged. I must admit I do spent a bit of time on the computer but it is generally for work so when I have finished I like to turn the computer off and do something more constructive - like sewing or scrapbooking etc.

The girls are doing really well. We all can't wait until the school holidays as Kirsty, Makayla and I are heading off to our church camp again this year. We had a fantastic time last year and Kirsty is really looking forward to camp again this year. Cameron gets to stay home unfortunately as he is way too busy this time of year to take holidays. And hopefully this year I won't loose Makayla. She can be a little wanderer sometimes - so I have threatened to go to the vet to have her microchipped. LOL

Kirsty just handed in her school project the other week. They had to build a diorama of the rain forest. I do believe she did a great job. She painted the box by herself and decorated it as well all by herself. It took a lot a will power and biting of the tongue to leave her to her own creativity. And well she did a fantastic job. Well done Kirsty.

Last week was very eventful in that I was heading out Thursday night to have dinner with Tammy and Nicole as it was Tammy's birthday and I was running late picking up Tammy. I got into the car and reversed out the driveway. Unfortunately I forgot to lift the roll a door. So yes I reversed into the roll a door and did a job on it. I was close to tears but my husband soon made me feel good. He just laughed and said he didn't feel so bad now for putting a ding in my car. Got to love them hey. Anyway I did not think that he was going to get the door back on as the top of the door was in place but the bottom of the door was now moulded to the shape of the car. But when I returned it was all fixed with some minor dings in the door - and it still goes up and down. Unfortunately I didn't even think to take photos of the door. What a page that would have been. Never mind maybe next time. Yeah I will probably do it again. LOL

I collected a parcel from the post office today and well I was blown away as some months ago I entered into a competition in the Homespun Magazine. And well this is what I won. I am so excited as I just love Sally Giblin designs and have some of the winning patterns. Mmmmm now to choose who to give the double ups to....... Well I just think getting this little package today might inspire me to get back into sewing. I haven't sewn for some weeks. Just too busy.
