Home again

So we are back from camping. It poured it blew, we got sun brunt, nearly lost Amalie to a freak wave...ummm what else... oh yes we helped a guy jump start his car only to see him put them on wrong and totally stuff out car. I tell you I cried and cried. After half the holiday was gone we finally had it fixed and then when we get home my computer wont turn on!!!! I am devasted I want to edit my holiday pics!!!!
Miss Amalie now needs to know where everything comes from so all day its "Where's this from?" as she points to everything and anything.
Got most of Oliver's school supplies today - he is so excited - little does he know that his teacher is a bit of a grump and taught his father!!!!
So not sure when I can post pics of hoilday...some are fab!!!

I'm not at Jasmine Star's workshop


Boo hoo!!

Have to get over it really but I did really want to go.....off for a walk instead I guess to shift 2-3 kilos before March!! Is that doable???? Those little voices in the back of my head say "your going to get huge again" Need an Ipod to drown them out!!!!

I ♥ faces




"Hilarious Outtakes"

That's the theme for week 51 and I couldn't resist putting up this pic of my nephew that I took awhile ago as he is now 14!!!
He was playing with the puppet and as I went to get my camera to take a pic of him this is what I came back too!!

And of course trying to take a photo by remote for Daddy!!!

Oh and me a few years ago - so over Christmas !!!!

We are painting...well Greg is painting!



I have done lots too but I seem to get sick of it really quickly!!!

Christmas has been and gone...



and what an eventful day!
Started off with the usual...opening Santa's sack and loving on all the gifts we got!
Then pancakes for breakfast thanks to Greg!
Then off to brunch at Granddads and Nana Jan's house.
There was Grandad, nana Jan, Us, Uncle Ferg, Betty and George (Nana Jan's parents) and Scotty the dog.
We played golf and cricket all morning - even Betty who "is over 80" as she tells me. George sat on the deck and watched in the sun.
When we were getting to leave there was a terrible accident. George fell and took the force with his poor head onto the concrete. We know now that his glasses cut through and artery. So much blood. I rang an ambulance right away and Oliver waited on the road to meet them. He was so good - jumping up and down so they could see where to come.
So poor George, Betty and Grandad spent the rest of Christmas day at A&E.
We however moved on to Mum and dads where we got way too many presents and ate way to much pork and pudding!!
An eventful day that left us happy, full and tired as we climbed into bed around 9pm!


Oh how I hate the curtains in our lounge!!! Can't wait to start decorating the inside of our house but I want the kitchen done first so the lounge and ugly chookpoo brown curtains will have to wait!!
