Oh and I took some photos of my friends little bubba last week. What do you think? I am a little sad as yet another month has gone by and I'm not pregnant but there are babies or pregnancies all around me, IRL and amongst my on-line friends.... It is a bit hard. I guess I just took it for granted how easily I got pregnant with Mia and the other baby that I lost. Anyway this beautiful little girl was a dream to cuddle and made me feel special as I held her. And I love her Mum for just letting me hold her too, as a first time Mum she is just giving in letting other people hold her little angel. I remember when I had Mia I was not sure I wanted her passed around, it was silly in hindsight but probably normal!

Latest LO for 'In your Skin' at Embellished. Don't love it, was quite stumped! I want to use paint more on my LO's but it always seems to 'buckle', anyone got any hints for me???
Entries for my 2008 journal, waited for weeks to get my photos from Snapfish, I was a bit disapointed in how long they took. At least I have them now and can get more scrapping done. I really need to take more self portraits to scrap myslef a bit more!


Mia and her friend Sebasti, they chalked EVERYTHING in the bakcyard Fri afty, including themselves, but it all washed off in the bath and they had fun!
Thanks for popping in and leave me a message if you can help me out with the paint dilemma!

Here is my latest LO, it was for Chinese Whispers over at SM forum, i like it, although it is a full scraplift and not a good one, the original of Jodie's looks HEAPS better! But a fun little LO! This one was for Scrapping with the Stars over at Scrap Therapy... I missed a few weeks over Christmas time, it was too hectic a time for me! Note to scrap forums....If you have Comps, please don't run them over Christmas Time, it's just too hectic!Not that I thought I had a hope in hell of winning anything, I just would have like to do the whole ten challenges so that I could say I actually completed something!! Well, I'm doing the In Your Skin comp at Embellished so hopefully I will do ALL the challenges.....

These pics are of my friends who got married on the weekend, it was a great weekend, the first pic here is of the Happy Couple at the hay bales where he proposed, so it was only natural that they have some pics there! It as a great wedding, a lovely day! The Bride and her Bridesmaids, I loved the dresses! They were spectacular in real life!
Thanks for calling in!! x

This LO is for Embellished comp called 'In Your Skin' so this is for round 1. In your head! Get over there and have a look!
Check these candles out! I was sitting out the back the other night having a quiet Vodka and I got all of them lit, and thought I'd better get my camera and take some photos... 20 shots later of the candles at all different angles... I think I like this one the best!
Take Care x

SPLASH.....
Mia and her little 'boy' friend. They had heaps of fun yesterday afternoon splashing around in the backyard! My friend and her little boy who is in the picture are leaving town at the end of the month which makes me sad but that is the nature of the town we live in, people come and people go, it will be the third good friend of mine to leave in a year and a half... But I love them and wish them well in all of their new adventures... xxxx to them
Nothing to show scrap wise, I am waiting for an order from Snapfish, but because of the 9c prints they haven't been delivered as quick as usual..We are having a quiet night in tonight, the footy is on for the hubby so I will sit and scrap. Bring on tonight, I can't wait for some 'me' activities...
Hope you are having a good weekend. What are you up to?

Another LO last night, it is for the Feb challenge over at Scrap Therapy, had to do a LO with a Wedding photo. I didn't do it in my wedding album theme which is red,pink, white and black.. I just wanted a different 'look' for this LO. I love this Cosmo Cricket pp, and the little part of Desiderata, my SIL read out at our wedding. It isn't the whole verse, just a bit of it that the celebrant had in her stash of readings... I love the whole thing, so read it if you can!
Just wanted to show you my Frangipani, my friedns Mum gave me two off cuts at Christmas and they are going so well... took these on Sat night, can you see the little bits of water on the petals???
Gotta go to work!! TFL!!!

Well, last night I scrapped a storm, I did three including a double with 5 photos, I haven't done a double for that long, and I like it so look out there will be more!!!
DH and I, I like this photo ALOT! It's so rare to get a good one of us... same ol story, I'm always taking the pics, but have been snapping a few self portraits of myself lately which is fun... try it!
Mia and my friends' kids, they have so much fun in the water and I love this photo, it looks really dark but it isn't IRL!!
RAIN!!! On Saturday night we had a fair bit of rain, it doesn't happen very often, DH's cousin was staying with us and he couldn't believe I was taking photos of the rain. He doesn't knw the life of a scrapper/photo taker!!!
Thanks for dropping by......
