Preschool Tears

Well it is official - the Boys have finished preschool :(

I thought I was fine with it. Next satge in life, growing up, a new adventure.

That was until I took the Boys to Preschool this morning. We took in some altered CD christmas decorations Cam and Josh helped me make. Well I tried to say thankyou for the last two years and Bev, Desma, Belinda and I ended up in tears!!

It got worse in the afternoon when we had to say goodbye! I was so teary, it was awful! I manged to get some cute pics of the Boys and there teachers:

Josh with Belinda, Desma and Bev:


Cam with his favourite, Belinda:

The concert was very cute. Lucky as I had to sit through it twice! The Boys are in the Monday/Tuesday group as well as the Wednesday group, so were in both concerts.

After the songs they were presented with their folders. Very cute folders full of work samples and photo's of their two years at preschool. Very special!

Mind you I think they enjoyed the party afterwards with their mates just as much:

Well what a week!!!! I don't think I have stopped.

After a massage Tues arvo (thought I should use the voucher the Boys gave me for mothers day :o); I worked at The Happy Scrapper Wed night; Went out for the executive dinner Thurs; Staff dinner Fri; spent Sat recovering, took the Boys to Beelbangera store to see Santa,then babysat Larrissa. It is nice to actually stop today and rest (well scrap!). We are all actually going out as a family tonight!

I am slowly getting through all the pressies I am scrapping this year. I may make it in time yet! I have been using challenges off the net to keep me moving. Nothing like the chance to win a prize to push me along!

On the track of prizes I was SO exicted to win third place in EMM's EDM comp for Nov. Such a shock! These are my LO's from it...



Well better get back to scrapping!

House news

Thought I had better put an update on the house onto here now that I have told you all about the Blog!

Things are going well. It is taking the brick layers longer than they thought - but in 30 -40 degree weather I am not surprised!! Thankfully we are paying per 1000 bricks, not per hour!

So we have gone from this:














to this:
















And as of yesterday this!


Poor Jas is out there as I type, in the dark and the mozzies, and the terrible smoke (yep we have the smoke from the Vic bushfires here - can't even see the hill from our place because it is so thick! Hate to think what it is like down your way Dad and Chris!). He is trying to get all the ant capping on so the brickies can finish tommorrow. Hopefully the flooring system will arrive before xmas and the Boys can get stuck into it!

Oh well, enough of an update for today. I need to get some scrapping done!!

Don't forget to leave me a comment so I know you have been in for a visit!

Ok these are some of the projects that I have been working on (well those I can show LOL)


These are for my class I am teaching on Wed nght. I am also doing the altered Eclipse mint tins (thanks EB girls!)


I also made up some calenders for My Grandmother and Jasons Grandparents:

Very basic - but I think they will like them :)

Ok lets see how I go at uploading pics!

It begins!

Well I have taken the plunge! Not quite sure what I am going to do with this blog - but I will use it to keep family and friends up to date with the happenings around here (if anyone actually reads it or not is another thing!

Ok off to see how to "pretty this up" a bit!
