Photos - Altered Scrapbook Organiser

Altered scrapbooking organiser

I am making this brilliant organiser, its so nice. It a beyond the page by Kasiser Craft. It cost $17 from a shop in bendigo which I got on my I've got to get out the heat shopping trip over new years. I'm covering it with Creative Memories Blush Blooms paper, OMG its looks amazing. Its really easier to do, the hardest part was when I used strips making sure they all went the same way. Enjoy the pictures they will be in the next post. If anyone is interested I can give you step by step instructions. Also I have found out that there is a Kasier outlet in Geelong so if any wants instructions or details about the Kasier outlet email me or post me a note.

Home Alone

Its 9.30am on a Thursday and my house is silent and I hate it!!

DS 1st day of school went so smooth, except for the rain. He's teacher is lovely and he was happy so we left, just like that I'm home alone. I thought that DH might have wanted to do something together but no he dumped me back at home and went to buy some tin. I was happy to go home b/c shopping for tin doesn't do it for me!!! So here I am, I've had a cuppa and read the paper and was going to do some house work but my beloved computer got the better of me. I can't help wondering what DS and DD are doing, if there happy, have they got enough lunch, are they going to make friends. Yes I know they will be fine. Have to laugh last night I was going through the prep check list of the thing we needed to teach DS over the holidays(great to check it the night before school when he is already in bed) well one of the things on the list was to make sure boys knew how to use a urinal. I had no idea, so I had to freak out to DH who cracked up laughing and said of course he does. How in the hell would I know they don't have them in girls toilets. Well I guess its time for me to do some housework, if this is what its like to home alone I don't like it!!!!!!!

The Last Toasted Cheese Sandwich

DS and I have just finished our last toasted cheese sandwich together before he is off to school tomorrow. Its made me a little sad, I'm really going to miss him while he's at school. DS has the same thing just about everyday for lunch. I asked what he wanted in his lunch box and he asked for cheese and butter sandwich. That child lives on milk and cheese!!!!! He's snack never changed for the whole year at kinder. Blueberry Bar, peeled and cut up apple or tub of peaches(only from Aldi), and maybe a cheese stick (not to often b/c he used to refuse to eat it if it was broken) School is going to be a big change for him I think and me. I have a zillion things that I need or want to do but I know myself I will just get all sad and lonely and do nothing just feel sorry for myself. I'm hoping someone will slap me if I stay like it to long. DS has been so lovely since we got home from the post office, we've played Lego for ages and I made some pretty cool things. Then shared our last lunch together and we've cooked dinner together as well. Thankfully DH is home tomorrow as well, so it will be dump and run with no time for tears. I'II just save them for friday.LOL. I glad its only a little term b/c I cant even see myself going anywhere while the kids have just started school. I hate being far from them in case something happens. I miss them so much. This morning when I droped off DD it was all weird b/c her teacher got all the kids to sit on the mat first up and I didn't get a chance for a huge good bye. I know it makes her life easier if the parents don't fuss, but I wanted to go up to her I'm DS Mum blah blah blah. I don't even know what I would of said but I had never met this woman before and I'm leaving my 1st born with her all day. I didn't like it and I wanted a few more photos and one of DD with her teacher. I mean does the women realise that DD is allergic to peanuts!!!!! Okay I've worked my self into a state so I'm going to school. My heart is so heavy in my chest I can't believe my children all all grown up and I'm going to be home alone.

I've just read this post and it has made me laugh, if you had of asked me at 9am this morning how I felt about DS going to school I would of left him there this morning. He was sooooo grumpy this morning b/c I asked him to get out of a few photos so I would have DD on her own.

My Desk

Here are a few photos of my desk, the first one was just taken a few minutes ago. I know its terrible, DH just came in to use the computer which is unusual and was appalled. I don't know how but I just cant keep it clean. The next photo was taken during 2006, as part of my ABC's about me Album, so its nice to see some things don't change!!!! Its of my study/spare/scrap/craft/dumping room, this room gets the most use in the house. Its home to our computer, my scrapping & craft stuff, our 2nd TV, fold up bed, vacuum, board games, and anything else that is awaiting a home or needs to find a new home.

DD is off to school tomorrow and in grade 1. So 1 down 1 to go. Well i hope the photos of my desk/study make you all feel a little better about your own homes. Remember "Housework Never, Scrapbook Forever". I read that quote or something close to that and have taken on as my no motto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Forgot a few things

I was just reading my older posts and realise I had promised more about last week. It was DS 5th b'day and he had a party and I made a wonderful dinosaur cake. Photo to come b/c I'm to lazy right now! Sorry but sometimes the truth hurts. Last Sunday we went to a baptism and Father Max just loved DS. He made a point of talking about him in the service and that asked him to come up and help during the baptism, DS was proud as punch. Apartly DS was a spitting image of the Father Max's son at that age. He even gave DS a kit kat (and one for DD) so we are waiting for him to want to go to church and ask why he's not baptised. Last saturday was our 12hour crop. I had the best time my SS (super scrappers) were so good. lots and lots of laughs were had and one of my SS had completed 3/4 of a pic folio album and another one of my SS had a die cut machine which I got to use, very cool. So a special Thanks to my SS on the day. I have to go now I can't type anymore my brain wont cope. I am going to try and post daily and hopefully my post wont take hours to read.

Make yourself a cuppa I have a lot to say................

I just have to say this before I forget then I'II go back to the start. I use my computer heaps, I love the Internet and join lots of free groups. Anyway I just saw the best idea on one of my cruises round the Internet. Someone had made the cutest little altered book which had inside a place for to you to put the web site, what you liked etc etc but best of all a place were you could write down your log on and password. Just what I need I always write things on scraps of paper and then they get buried on my desk, never to be found again. And I'm always having to use different names as my log on because my surname is SMITH!!!!!!!!!! So that's something I will be making for me. I'm not going to even reread this today because I'm just to worn out, so if you can't understand it get over it and fill in the gaps yourself. Ta.

Okay here is the reason I'm so worn out, today we went to the You Yangs. It was a lovely day and it started as a great idea. Well firstly DH made us bacon and eggs for brunch, Yum. Then off we went the kids were very excited. We arrived and decided theres no time like the present to climb to the top, I can't remember the last time I did this but it would have been in the early 90's I reckon. We have just started to climb and we reach a sign that states "450 granite steps, very steep gradient, strenuous activity" Not my favourite word and not very encouraging. Well the steps are really big, some are as high as my knees and they seem to go on forever. They seem to be in groups of between 10 to 30 after the 1st 100 or so, so at least you get a rest in between. After the 1st 100 I was not traveling so well, in fact I felt like I was trying out for the biggest loser. It got better after that, but by then DS5 had had enough, so he and I stop after very set of steps and took it very slow to the top. We did make about 15 mins after DH & DD. I could still talk when we got to the top so that was a good thing and DH had got us a spot to sit in the shade and pack us a snack (very sweet) After a big rest we started down, taking every short cut we could see (not sure if your allowed off the track or not but surely this was life and death) Overall it was enjoyable outing but really did point out how unfit I am. Must must make a point of changing that. It did not help that DH,DS and I had had very broken sleep last night as DS was quite unwell. Yes I know hardly the time to take him on a hike but he really wanted to go and we had plan it with the kids already because Daddy was going to be home. And we lived to tell the tale, just!!!

Before that the kids had been to Nan and Pa's beach for a couple of days and that was going to be my time for me, DH would be a work and I would have the place to myself. Yes you all guessed it my plans didn't quite happen as I planed them. I drooped the kids off thursday afternoon about 3.30pm, stayed for a while and then drove home getting home around 7pm, watched a movie and went to bed. Driving makes me really tried so 3hours in a car on the highway just wrecked me. Friday did have a sleep in then clean out the kids rooms while they weren't home, most important and a job well done. Then had to get ready for my adventure, I WAS CATCHING PUBLIC TRANSPORT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has been quite a while since I've done this, in fact I had no idea what I was doing but I asked my Mum (how sad a 33 I had to ask my Mum how to catch a bus and train) I had to be in the city by 5pm in spring st and I was getting my brother to pick me up but he was only going to drop me at Mums so I drove there and then caught the bus and train which was also lots cheaper. So at 3.40pm I walk to the bus stop, 3 buses will pass I can catch any but 2 go closer to the station. Cool I wont catch the 414 bus. Problem I can't read the number on the bus until it stops in front of me and of course its the 414 the one I don't wont. But I get on anyway because I feel it would so rude to say no thanks after he has already stopped. Not really sure were to get off I guess I'II just wing it and hope someone else is going to the station too. In luck, just followed another person. At the station I get out my book, my bag is so heavy with a book, water and snacks. I have a new respect for people catching public transport. Get on the train and keep reading, until I hear stopping all stations to flinders street. Oh crap hope this train is going in the loop because I need parliament station. At flinders st I hear and announcement blah blah blah this train is stopping all stations to cragiburn. CRAP does it go through the loop better get off in case. It does, hooray so I jump back on. What a wally but better to be safe than sorry. Get off at parliament and look in amazement at the size of the escalates, they go on forever and you need to catch 2 to get to the surface. I only turned back once for a look and felt quite ill, so no photos sorry. You really need to go just to check them out, never seen anything like it before. ( i must get out more) Of course I walk out at the wrong end of spring st and have to walk down to wear I wont to go but all is well because I have plenty of time. Did what I had to do and the caught an interesting lift home with my brother. Thank you DB. Had dinner with my parents then went home and watched The family stone with DH, funny movie at the start and end but boring in the middle. Saturday morning DH did the nice thing and serviced my Dads car and I did the supermarket shopping with out kids so it was nice. Spent lots of money but we needed everything, DH had thought that maybe we were moving and forgot to tell him as the fridge and cupboards were so empty!!!!!!! it was then time to pick up my lovely children from the beach, hear goes another 3 hours trip on the car and by myself again. DH was on his way to the sprint cars. So as you can see it wasn't really me time doing things I love just things that had to be done. In another week I going to have plenty of time as DS is off to school for the first time. Its breaking my heart to let him go, I'm not sure if there will be tears (from me) as I've already cried lots and DH is going on the his 1st day too. There will be lots more said about that later. Hope you enjoyed reading and had a couple of chocolate biscuits with your cuppa.

PS I had said I was going to post layout for you to copy but I have come across a little hurdle with that DH doesn't want the kids photos on the Internet. I can understand this and will respect his wishes (about the only time) So I'm not sure what I doing yet because 99% of my layouts are of them but stay tuned I'II think of something. Any ideas????? Please????

Just a quick

little blog for all my loyal readers! Thank you. Life has gotten in the way of posting lately, so I just wanted to say Hi. Lots has happened in the last week and unfortunately now is not the time for me to tell you. But I can tell you that DH Grandma asked me how I get my socks so white??? Umm let me see I WASH THEM. You had to be there but it was so funny. Anyway here is a quick run down of the last week

Thursday DS 5th Birthday
Friday Recover and Clean up from Party and do stock take and pack for 12h crop and set up hall
Saturday Summer Fun 12h Crop
Sunday really funny church story and DH accident (not too bad)
Monday read a book, a really good Australian book
Tuesday School shoe shopping with 2 kids, afternoon play date and finally cook dinner for my family.

I will explain in more detail soon, as I have just arranged for kids to go to Nan and Pa's for a night or 2 from thursday afternoon!!!!!!

Chat to you all then

Wasn't going to post today

Or even go near the computer but I then released what DH was watching on TV (flicking between tennis & cricket) so here I am while I have my cuppa.

And a most exciting thing happened - I'VE BEEN TAGGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - which means I have to share 7 things you might not know about me. Which for me is incredible hard because as DH is always reminding me "You told me that story before". Which could mean I only have a handful of stories and I just keep repeating them or my stories are funny and interesting people want to here then over and over. This of course is the one I prefer. So here's my list....

1/ I never ever have a bath (lucky for you I shower) I hate them!!!!

2/My 1st car was a pale yellow 1975 Mazda 808, named Mork which I loved and cried when I traded it in on Larry the Lazer. Who was followed by Corey the Collora and I now have Tinkerbell the Commodore (the kids named this car)

3/I have been stuck in a lift (with 3 boys)

4/I have been Sky Diving!!! And bungy jumped!!!

5/I met my DH on a blind date and knew I was going to marry him within 2 weeks, it just 5 years to convince him.

6/I played indoor cricket in a mixed team called The Misfits and got a trophy, my 1st ever in 1997 (i think)

7/I was a very shy person................. once.

I think I've done pretty well there, hope you enjoy and feel free to tell me 7 things about you.

Thanks Yvonne for tagging me and for putting a link on your blog to mine. TA. I would do the same for you if I knew how and I would pass the tag along but your the only person I know with a blog.

Here's Yvonne's Blog, I love it http://www.campbellcreations.net/

Well my cup is empty and the kitchen needs cleaning up after making the BIRTHDAY CAKE. So Good Night Australia.

Bloody set top box

I forgot we got a set top box, so the playstation is not plug in. No sing star for me. So sad. But my neighbours will be happy.

If I was on fire last night then I'm burnt to a crisp today!

Today has been such a lovely day and it hasn't ended yet.

Firstly I hung around home in my Pjs getting lots done. DS had a party so off we went to that, good party and great to catch up with some Mum's from Kinder. I then picked up my order from the post office. Got home and was going to be good and do house work and get ready for DS birthday but my order kept calling me, everytime I got closer it begged to be opened. SO I did. Yes, yes very naughty of me but god it was good. I ordered for me a vintage tote which came with a free memory mate case, that fitted all my inks in perfect!!!!!! And a Family Quick Kit, WHICH I'VE ALREADY COMPLETED. YES YOU HEARD RIGHT A 8X 8 ALBUM WITH 24 PAGES ALL DONE. I just need to add letters to the front page. I used photos from our trip or should I say day at the snow.(yes I take a lot of photos, my camera is just about always with me) It worked out so perfectly I can hardly believe it, I had enough photos left for a double page spread in my 2007 family album. So much better than then 8 page spread I had been planning. Perfect, prefect, perfect!! It only took me 1 & 1/2 hours to do using only a personal trimmer and tape runner. I'm so in love!!!!

But back to my day I them dropped of my kids to my MIL bless her cotton sock she and FIL are having the kids so I can go out for dinner and they are staying overnight. But I have promised myself I will do no more scrapping today I must get ready for DS birthday. I'm going to come home and make chocolate crackles.

If you all could see me know you would be laughing. I'm just about jumping out of my skin because everything is just so good and I'm happy. And in love with so many things, my family, my friends (I really do have some and good ones too, real proper friends. How cool is that and I have to many to count on 1 hand!!!!!) I completed an Album today, I'm off to dinner, my in laws love my kids enough to have them overnight, I have more than 1 pair of shoes. Sorry lost it now the coke is going to my head and my fingers can't keep up. I guess had such a good idea I have time for a quick sing star before I go out!!!!!!!

I scrapped last night - Hooray!!!!

I was on fire last night, I did all of 4 pages and 4 borders. Yeah I know not that much but I'm trying to go to bed by 10.30pm every night. (otherwise I'm never going to be able to get up when school goes back) I did a great double page using power palette MOD and I over come my fear of cutting up PP paper and just did it before I could think about it. I did work in the end but at one stage I just had cut up paper everywhere and I was wondering what the hell was I doing!!! I will post a picture when I find my other camera card, I have 3 and can only find 2, its missing along with 2 pairs of Nathan's shoes. Somewhere in this house is a black hole, if only I could find it. I'd then fill it full of mess and take back what I've lost. So simple. Anyway I have to dash DS has a birthday party today and I have to start getting ready for his on thursday and most importantly go to the post office and get my order!!!!!!

Happiness

Here are the 2 cards I made at the Stampin Up Class. On the top one the rose is embossed, very cool. The 2nd used versa mark, gloss card stock and a brayer. I enjoyed both cards and techniques as I had never done either and they were easy. It was sooooo nice to make something. I have done nothing this year and it makes me sad and further behind, but have cleaned up my study (thanks Kel) and an going to try to bring a layout a week. This will also showcase so of the beautiful papers Creative Memories are bringing out and my talent!!!!!!! Next week is our Summer Fun workshop, 10am - 10pm, can't wait for that. Might even be able to get a few more seats if your interested.

PS For anyone interested my back has gone a lovely brown, so I know have a tan you would die for IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES WITH ALL THE WRONG LINES!!!!!!!!!!! Lucky I don't go backless.

I feel so good today

I had been feeling a little bit off colour since wenesday of this week but didn't worry to much about it. I went to a Stampin Up party at a friends Thursday morning, felt okay just really tried. By 1pm I was in bed slept on and off all afternoon, then went to bed again at 7pm with two donnas because I couldn't get warm. Which on a 40.c day can't be a good thing! And really didn't get out of bed much until this morning and I feel fine. I don't know if I was a little run down, catching a bug or what. I do know that I'm so glad that my parents had my kids because I was no good to anyone. Anyway today has been great we've been out all day catching up with a friend and its been great, lots of laughs and animals!!!! I am making my children rest in their beds right now because we are going to the speedway tonight. Yes that's totally mean but I'm allowed, I'm a Mum. Hopefully that way we don't get really grumpy kids while we are out. Should be a good night, its the kids 1st time to the speedway. And we get to drive there in a new Corolla. DH has been give the Corolla and told to put 200km on the clock this weekend, what a hard job he has. The only bad thing about this is for every new car DH brings home our car looks older and worn out with no added extras. It makes me and the kids want a new one. One day!!!!!

School holidays- Bliss

I have been loving the school holidays. I have been staying in bed untill 8.30/9am every morning which is great. The kids have been sleeping in a little too but when they do get up they just turn on the TV or jump in for a cuddle. It has been bliss, but.................................



I have had the odd problem like this morning, I drag my behind out of bed at about 9.15am only to have the door bell go at 1/2 past 9. Well not much had happened in 15mins. I'd turned on the kettle and put a load of washing on but am still in my nightie, which is not fit for visitors. Its okay to torment my children and to tease my husband but that about all. I throw on some PJ bottoms and answer the door, its Kate all is fine chat to her for an hour. She leaves and the dog washer is due in 30mins and I have to make a plate to take for lunch with the girls and meet them at 11.30. (yes I realise that this is not possible, as I have yet to shower, pack or make anything) I throw my washing on the line and jump in the shower, its 10.40, all is going well. Until the dog washer turns up early (whats with that!!) and I'm still under the water. Jump out throw throw nightie/Pj outfit back on with thongs and hope that it passes as clothes (if your lucky I'II post a picture) Stay outside with dog washer until he's finished, oh crap its 11.45 and I'm still in my PJ/nightie get up with no lunch made. Throw on real clothes, pack a quick bag, yell at the kids to get ready and find some shoes and throw all the ingredients for lunch in a bag will make it when I get there. Thank god for friends. Arrive at 12.10pm, pretty good effort on my behalf. Have a wonderful afternoon,, eating, 1 wine and lots of laughs and bitching with the kids running a muck. Brilliant and just what school holidays are about. Thank you Teresa and Tracey for a great afternoon.

Thanks

A huge thank you for all the people that have checked out my blog. Your the best!!!! And I have just found out that you have regester with google to post on my blog. Sorry about that I had no idea. (thanks Doreen & sorry you had such a hard time) I do know that I have been regestered on google for about 6 months and I didn't even know it, they don't bug you or anything. So please do it for me, you know that you want too. The other thing I have been trying to do, all by myself, which is I guess the reason it hasn't worked. Is to get a counter on my blog. As I'm trying to do it they start talking about Html and all that stuff which is a little out of my league but I will get there because I want to see how many people are looking and laughing with out posting.

Thanks and Love Christine

A note to ones self -

Never sunscreen your own back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As you can see I thought it would okay to do my own but my arms didn't quite reach, never mind another lesson learnt. (already! guess I'm going to be pretty smart - NOT!) Thanks to my DS for taking the picture for me. And I guess this is a good ad for sunscreen. I think you can even tell that I used a roll on. Sometimes I'm really pretty stupid. Oh well I'm going to have the strangest looking tan lines around.

Photos

Here are some pictures of our yacht down the beach. Hope you enjoy them. Sorry one is sideways I can't change it now its on my blog. Another lesson learnt - Check which way your photos going before you download it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before you say anything

I know that my english and spelling is terrible and that I have a terrible love for exclamation marks but just get over it. I've been the same all my life and I'm not about to change now. I can't help it if my mind goes way faster than I can type and I'm so excitied about seeing the post on my blog ( WHICH i'M IN LOVE WITH) that I never reread things.

So like me or lump me like a cube of sugar!!! HAHAHA
Oh my lord I'm funny but I think I need to go to bed.
Love to you all and please please please post or I'II cry.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Tomorrow

Tomorrow I will post a few photos. Some of the yacht, Jasper the wonder dog and a lovely one of me!!!!!!!!!! I won't tell you what its about but I can ashore you its worth a look. I'm also going to post my layouts and off the page stuff as I complete them. That way you get to CASE them.
Goodnight

Jasper the not so wonderful dog

Once we arrived home around 11pm saturday night we expected to find a grumpy dog at home, maybe even a chewed hose and new hole. We didn't expect to walk out into an empty backyard with no dog and find a tunnel into our nextdoor neighbours yard, a picket missing of our side fence, 2 new holes and no hose left unchewed. I have no idea in the world how Jasper unhooked herself from the runner but I do know how and why she caused so much damage. Jasper is shocking when you hear fireworks and crackers and around our place at this time of year they go off nightly. Which is why the wonderdog spend so much time inside at this time of year. DH and I take it in turns walking the streets and going for drives looking for her. I rang all the places I could think off but nothings open and we can't find her. At about 1.45am I drift off to the worst sleep ever its so very hot and I dream of finding Jasper dead on the side of the road. By 7am DH and I are out looking again, no luck. We have a chat with the neighbours but no-one has seen her. Around 11am I'm on the net looking for lost dogs home number when the door bell goes, its the new people from 2 doors up. They have Jasper in there backyard, shes okay and has made herself very at home. Late last night she walked straight in their open front door looking for a friend because she was scared and we weren't home. I feel a little bad taking her home as there kids wanted to keep her. Must buy them some chocolates as a thank you. Glad to have Jas home but got no idea what to do in the future with her, maybe we need a dog sitter when we go out.

Saturday at the beach

Saturday we set of to Nan and Pa's beach to put the yacht in the water. The 1st time since December 2000 and with the hard work that has gone into it, everyone had fingers crossed that it would do well. We didn't need to cross our finger the yacht was perfect, the only thing we needed was a bit more wind. Barry FIL and Andrew DH went first and didn't get tossed over board!!! But that would have been funny. DD6 had a go and of course loved every minute, she was even doing the front sail rope things (yes this is the technical name) by herself. DS5 in 2 weeks wouldn't have a bar of it not his style. And yes I had a go too, it was okay not really very comfortable and I felt as if I was about to be flung into the bay at any stage. Also wearing a life jacket a few sizes to big didn't help. Overall was a great because I now have a very happy husband with a working new toy!!! Its so lovely at Indented Heads I spent a good bit of the afternoon in the water with the kids, it was the perfect temperature. DS was so happy in the water and got out deep which was nice to see. It was the happiest I'd ever seen him at the beach. DD on the other hand well she'll give anything a go, she sailed in the yacht with her Dad, went snorkeling out at the wreck with Dad and Pa and will give anything a go. We had fish and chips with Nan and Pa for tea and watched the sun set before heading home. What a perfect day, little did we know that it was about to go wrong, very very wrong.

Oh no problem with blog already

Well not really, more with me because of my new obbsession. This is what my children DD6 1/2 and DS just about to turn 5 have just eaten between them.

1 Time out bar
A few bites each of a crunchie
1/2 a Boost bar
1 bite each of a chomp
All of this was wrapping up in a christmas stocking.

But all is not lost beause it's given me something else to blog!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New Years camping trip

We left last friday night for our News Years at Pops block in Dunolly. We were meeting up with a group of friends for a weekend of motorbikes, and hopefully swimming. We got all that plus the hottest days ever, it had to be at least 45.C on monday, we spent our days chasing shade and taking dips in the pool. It was all a bit much for Kel and I so on sunday we left the boys alone with the kids and took off to Bendgio for a day of shopping. What an adventure we had, we found out that you have to pay to park just about everywhere in Bendgio. Our 1st stop was Rivers for me to buy some thongs, well after camping in a paddock for a couple of days already my feet were looking a little gross after finding a pair I liked off I went to pay but after waiting for 10minutes and getting nowhere I dumped the thongs and left, pity the person who buys the pair I put back!! After lunch I did the nice wife thing and got supplies for Andrew (BEER) and then we just had to get a few thing from ALDI after that we were excited to see Macc's right next door and flew through the drive thur to get frozen cokes. Now I'm not sure if it was the frozen cokes or the heat but we just started driving home. Well after about 10mins and who knows how many KM's I asked Kel if it look like the road we came in on, we agreed it wasn't but had no idea how we missed the road we had to take. After a u turn we realised our mistake, coming out the wrong exit in the car park at ALDI and being so excited to see Macc's we forgot were we were going. We did make it but to camp with out any other trouble but my did we laugh.

I got have a ride on my postie bike which was great fun and good because it had been awhile and I remembered how. I even had to kick start it twice buy myself!!! NYE was a great night once the sun went down the kids has sparklers then went off to bed. We listened to the count down on the radio then partyed long into the morning thanks to Uncle Jamie and his musical X Box. Overall it was a good trip just to bloody hot and long, have made a note to one self that Pop's block is good for weekend only trip from March to November.

I have to thank the following people for making our trip great Uncle Jamie the substitute husband, father, music and movie maker. Kel for playing scatagories with me when no one else would and for thinking that a breakfast food starting with I could be Iron man food and that a type of dancing starting with N could be neurotic. Pop for putting up the pool and letting us use your place, The Muir's for bring Maddi so Chloe wasn't the only girl. Lastly to Andrew and the kids for making me smile even when I don't want too and packing up in a new record time.

Almost forgot I drove the camper all the way home and after a bit of a slow start did a good job if I do say so myself. My parking at home left a little to be desired but I did a u-turn in Cresswick with ease and passed a few cars on the highway while doing 110km. All that was after I told Andrew I wouldnt travel faster than 80km and would have to stop heaps. I was pretty proud of myself (and I think Andrew was too)

Think I got it right

Okay well hopefully I've set this up right and everyone will pop it in there favourites and reply to some of my posts. Please do or I will feel all sad and lonely.

I have to say thanks to a few people for making me do this firstly Uncle Mark because you wouldn't do it for but I'm glad now because it was easy. And to Yvonne who's blog I am in love with, not to mention her work. Also this is my way of keeping a dairy, I'm far to lazy to write everyday and I can also uplaod photos of all my creations for eveyone to see and want to CASE!
