Bringing the Tree To LIFE

The week leading upto christmas I was lucky to be able to do a couple of Layouts and I thought I would share this one with you of Hayley decorating the TREE. I tell you for the kids to decorate the TREE it is a real challenge especially if you want the decorations put over the tree evenly.
It always makes me giggle when they have finished as the tree looks like a mass of bling thrown on anywhere it lands. Never wanting to take their spirit away I always try to leave it just as they left it. I must take just a TREE DECORATED PHOTO.

SURPRISE

I went to work on Monday and recieved a box of goodies, it was a surprise to find out I had won one of the raffles. This is a photo of all the GOODIES.
Iam so excited, I don't normally win but I enjoy going in the raffles just in hope that I might win.
It must of been my turn. Happy happy

Hayley my little helper layout

Here on my layout that I was becoming quite pleased with hayley decided to give me a helping hand. She had a go at using my black stazon ink, she tells me that it fell out of her hand and landed face down on the flowers on the bottom left hand corner and on the photo, which I managed to get off BUT as for the flowers well I had to match up the top ones. I don't think she will do that again. I really wasnot HAPPY.

A LITTLE ANGEL

Here Hayley is an ANGEL at the Kindy christmas concert. I cannot believe she starts prep in 2010. It was sad saying goodbye to Mrs Johnston and Mrs Simms. My baby's going to school. Yippy Yippy
Imagine all the scrappin I can do and not get interupted, later in the week I will share a layout that hayley thought I needed help with when I was bringing in the washing. I was LIVID.
Had to count to 10, a few deep breaths and a scream.

WE CAN DANCE

Here I share a photo of kelsey and Hayley at their DANCE CONCERT. You wouldn't believe I took 110 photo's in the change room of them in the different costumes and with their little friends. This year MISS Kim had a matinee and an evening session as our dance school has grown so much and I must say I quite liked it especially for the little ones.
And of course it made it alot easiler for the photo freaks like me with a camera to take alot more photo's. I can't wait to start scrappin my photo's. Stay tuned !!!!

Creative Memorieswork shop

Here is acreative memories layout I have done a couple pf weeks ago. I must say they have really inproved with the variety of stock they keep now. The workshop that I went to we were able to use as much as we liked on our layout so that was a plus also. And yes I made a purchase, they have a snazzy black and white range a must have!!!!! I have also done a hidden journal under my photo on the left of my photo of Hayley and her chook chook.

TRICK OR TREAT

Here is one of a thousands of photo's I took of the kids on Halloween.

We went with some friends and had a great night. The kids were so high on excitement I thought I was not gonna get them to bed when we got home. But it wasn't too hard they were exhasted from walking around door knocking all night. Hope to do some spooky layouts soon.

It's all about having a good time

Look how big our chix have grown

Happy Scrappin

I think I have my Pa's artistic talent. hahaha

This painting I think is Pa's best one. His strokes and blending is fantastic.

This painting would have to be my favorite. For some reason I can relate to this one. Whether this reminds me of my childhood I dont know.

Q2 rewind collection

After buying some of the kaiser Q2 range this week I thought I would do some scrappin. With 1 of each papers for this range I managed to get 2 layouts done and still have a little left. At Seaworld the kids enjoyed riding in these little trucks that go around on a track.

The kids always want to sit in the front seat and the line up is always so long, so if you get to sit in the front seat it is a real treat.here I managed to get a photo of kelsey and Hayley in the front.

my little shoe box papers

Here is a layout I had alot of fun with, once I got started I found it hard to stop.

In the holidays I got alot of inspiration and completed some layouts this is one of them.

Now that I have lost my pa I hope it won't take me long to get back into my love of scrappin.

funny faces

Here's a quick layout, I also used a EK punch for my outside border. Ive been really enjoying scrapping this last week.

Summer Fun

This is some photo's that I took at Movie world of the girls. The spirting water kept the girls amused for hours and I loved taking photo's of them. I got alot of detailed photo's.

New My Minds eye " Abbey Road" papers

These papers are very girly, and yes the bird is still in Yeh.

I love the birds, I hope they stay in for awhile yet.

New Sassafras "Monstrosity" papers

I really enjoyed working with these papers I found it really hard to stop fiddling just wanted to keep on adding.

For my title I used a 7 Gypsies alpha stamp.

Kelsey's Layout

This is the young man who has captured my daughters heart.

finished some 1/2 started layouts this week so far, must be the healthy dinners the kids and me have been having with no DAD home.

Movie pic's

The kids and I went to the movies at the start of the week and we saw " UP ". Which I must note was disapointing ( shit ) not really worth the money. I dont know whether I can actually recall much of the movie with individual trips to the toilet between 3 kids. Yeh thanks kids.

NO actually not a good movie.
