Today was my monthly day at Scrapbooking. I go to a Creative Memories Scrapbooking Workshop 1 Saturday each month.
A little too much chit chat went on, so I only managed two pages. What's a workshop with out chit chat, and of course goodies like pineapple lumps and dark choccy tim tams... MMMM
And below is my second, not quite finished, still to put the title on.
I have also joined a "Flower Swap", which I'm really excited about. They are choosing the groups next week. Seeing I was already creating today I've already made my 3 flowers. I'm very pleased with their outcome, and they were so fun to make.
I'd like to share a couple of my recent creations.
Autumn is definately one of my favourite times. The beautiful colours of the leaves, crinkling the leaves and having leaf fights, AWESOME!!
Summer - definately a time for bbq, hoola hooping, watermelon and good times with friends.
Dining with friends in Rotorua Those were some mean as beef ribs (slow cooked for about 5 hours in a marinade), to die for. Unfortunately I didn't order them, the rest of looked at them and had wished we did.
In case you can't read my tag - It says "ENJOY" .... and that we did.
Well today's been a day for rest, I had the day off work, feeling a little under the weather.
I'm feeling very, very excited, only 2 more sleeps until I hop on the big steel eagle jet setting off to Melbourne for the weekend. I meet up with my husband who's been there for the last week and a half.
We'll be dining on the Yarra River in a boat. Also we're taking a tour of the city and then we'll leave the city behind us as we head for the towering forests and native wildlife of the Dandenong Ranges.
A little cash for coffees and such forth as Oz isn't as Eftpos savvy as us.
Another bit of excitement is I'm doing my very first swap Strawberry Swap, my swap partner is Gill (The Vintage Gardener) all the way from the UK. I've muddle my way through my first swap with a little help from my friend Cat.
I get up 5.45am Monday-Friday. Shower, make lunches, organise the girls, tidy the benches and we're out the door into the hustle and bustle of the traffic (music goes down for the drive, a selection of our favourite CDS) for our busy, busy day. After school there's homework, housework, errands to run and playing with the animals, fitting in time for coffee here and there. Every other weekend I get to spend time with my hubby while the girls go to their father's.
In my spare time, I love to scrapbook, make cards, read, catch up with friends, share my interests with other like minded people, catch a good movie, and spend time with my beloved and lovely kiddly winks, (well on a good day they are that!!)
I'm a stickler for my routine and don't cope with a lot of change, not too good with crowds.
Am one to stick things out without too much complaint.
Thanks for joining me on my blogging journey and sharing with me your ideas and creations.
