I have come to the disturbing realisation that I am NOT the world's greatest blogger. I never keep my promises, it's ages before I load up new pics, and I'm not the most regular writer either. But I do love the visitors, and just adore all the gorgeous comments you guys leave me.


Today I DO have some pics to share. As part of the ongoing photography challenge over at CIS I set up an DIY photography studio to take some pics of the kids. I was totally thrilled with how many fab pics I got and will certainly make a point of doing this again. Here are a few of the forty or so pics I did take.








I've also managed to get a couple of LO's done recently. Really love this one; so totally different to my 'normal' style; no journalling, all that blank space. But all the neccessary journallling is already in the album, so there really was no more to say. Hope y'all like it.

Okay so I know I promised I would upload pics of the stuff I did with Fleur. And I didn't upload. Sorry.

I do however have a couple of photos from the school holidays to share with you. These pics were taken on Thursday when Dane and I had a mummy/son day. We just jumped in the car and drove until we ended up somewhere good - then jumped out and spent the day exploring. We ended up down at Point Nepean National park, after a stop for Hot chocolate and fruit bun in Balnarring. Point Nepean is the place from which the first Australian shots were fired in both World Wars. So full of history and such stories, but also just a really beautiful spot.

How good does that Hot Chockie look????

I had a ridiculously hectic weekend, visited Simone on Friday night to chack out the CIS cybercrop challenges, then out to the bonscraps Scrap N Chat on Saturday - out to dinner with the family Saturday night and on to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix with my Dad afterwards. Sunday was spent sorting out all the kids stuff and getting them into their own rooms- wow what a mammoth task!

I am hoping to get some LO's finished tonight, so I'll try to remember to upload when I'm done ;)

TFL:)

So the school holidays are hlaf way over and the kids are driving me half way mad! Lydia's harrassing Dane at every available opportunity - something he's getting thoroughly sick of. It's tough at the moment - he's wanting to do activities that she simply destroys, and she's just too young for. It seems he spends half of each day waiting for her to have a nap so he can pull out whatever thing he wants to play with next.
But tomorrow the lovely Fleur is coming over (check out her fab blog here) - and Andrew will be home to look after the kids so I will have a few hours just to enjoy some gorgeous Stampin' Up! toys and some wonderful company. I can not wait!!! I'll be sure to post a few pics tomorrow night.
Oh and another big joy for me today - Liz sent me the most awesome pack of goodies and the most stunning LO of Dane - I'll upload just as soon as the kids get their booties off to bed tonight.
