Some layouts....

Ok so I'm just doing a post of some layouts I've done recently....Most are on The Boxx but thought I'd share them here as well for my non-scrapping friends and family!




LOVE this one and as the journaling says ...it's an everyday occurance in our house as my girls have no hips and their clothes just do not stay up !!!!! LOL!

This was just one I threw in with the others because I couldn't think of another addiction!!!!

This one was for the DT as well for "ribbons"

Thanks for looking and have a great weekend!

Girls Night In..........

On Friday the 31st of October I was invited to a Girls Night In (which is a Breast Cancer Fundraiser event) on the Gold coast with a few of the girls from The Boxx.





It was an AWESOME night with some of the most AWESOME chickies!!!! I was "perfectly fine!" We had to dress up as something starting with "S"...... This is what I went as ......."Mrs. Santa"









We had a raffle and some games and I won some fabulous prizes......The very generous Jodes donated a Pandora Bracelet (empty) so now I have to start another addiction and buy the beads for it !!!! (oh well!)




And then my most favourite prize was a Family Photo Shoot with the very talented photographer Alison Stafford!!!! So look out in the future for some amazing family photos .....(Got to ring her and organise a day)




Group shot of everyone......





Some fantastic costumes , some went to a lot of effort. Thanks again Rozzie and Jodes for an amazing night! I think we raised about $500 too !!!!!

Off to Def Leppard this weekend ......Woo Hoo!

See you ....have a great week

Everyone's showing off their perm jobs of the 80's and 90's so here are a couple of mine.......

First one is when I went to America at 17 (1989) and decided to get a portrait done whle I was there......

Next is probably about 1990.....oh the harshness of the bleach ...my poor hair! The things we did to it it's amazing we have any hair left!!!!

Oh to be young again!!!!! (don't you love the shoulder pads in the tops too!!!LOL!!!)

Thanks for visiting!

Birthdays and a new look.........

We have just finished the "Birthday Season" at our place......To start off we have Olivia who turned 7!!!!

(Notice the front tooth missing!!!!) Wow!!! I can't believe I am the mother of a 7 year old!!! She just had a few friends over for a sleepover and they had a great time.....She got a new bike, one with gears!!!!

A couple of weeks later my baby turned 4!!!!!

Ella got lots of games and her own "Tendo!" which is actually a Leapster and a couple of games to go with that. This is her straight from bed hence the "Ferral" look!!

This is now the new look for Olvia and will be for at least 6 - 12 months according to the dentist!!!! Olivia already had one front tooth missing then one next to the other front tooth had to be pulled out due to a new abcess that had formed over the old one so the dentist advised to pull it since it was going to come out soon anyway...then the front tooth next to it was so wobbly but Liv wanted to wait until Dad came home to pull it out but it wasn't going to last that long so that same night Mum got up the courage and yanked it out !!!! The tooth fairy was very busy that night !!!!

We have teased her about the way she talks for about a week now we've got used to it!!! It was funny though!!!!

Then there was Dave's big 40th!!!! We just had a little BBQ and out for tea on the actual night.....Here he is ...can't believe I'm married to a 40 year old !!!LOL!!!

And then it was me 5 days later but no photos of me!!!!! Ha!

Very busy over the next few months so lots to post about ....stay tuned!!!!

Home safely!!!!

This is Dave and the girls only minutes after he arrived home from his 10 day trip to Melbourne to see the Moto GP at Phillip Island with Kenny and 9 , no make that 8 others!!! They lost a couple of riders this year!!!! Crashed and ended up in hospital so it's always wonderful to hear their bikes and see them turn that corner in our street!!!!! He also caught up with a few mates while he was down which is great.

I was supposed to have some me time while he was away and do some scrapping and I did a few LO's,

This is Ella at the Ekka this year ...we went for the first time and all Ella wanted to see was the pigs so she was pretty happy when she found this one !

This is Dave and the girls having a wonderful time at Moffat Beach one afternoon .....looking for crabs....This was in August.

I actually did a few other things instead of scrapping like putting in a new sprinkler system along the side fence and painted the bathroom and the jetty railing!!! I also scanned in over 1000 older photos , which is a bit of a job because we have thousands and thousands of pre-digital pics but it will be so worth it in the end! So I just do a little bit here and there and we'll get there eventually!

Also had Ella's 4th birthday last Wednesday so will share some pics of that soon,......It's also Dave's 40th birthday on Tuesday and then mine on the 19th. Then Birthday season is over !!!!

Will post again soon ....have a great week!
