BASIC GREY PICK UP

Yay...Basic Grey picked up a layout of Sebi I did using Obscure paper.It's fairly intimidating paper, so I was happy with the result. Tah Dah!!

Renovation Celebration

It feels like forever since I've posted anything....or since I've slept either!!!
The boys have been gone for a week and except for one phone call to say "we made it", I've heard exactly nothing. Too busy having a good time to miss their mum!!
Bruce and I have the painting well in hand, with Kit and Sebi's rooms finished, the lounge finished and just the master bedroom to go. It's been non stop painting for 4 days, but it'll be WORTH IT when it's finished. I'm feeling very decadent as I have treated myself to new bedding, as well as a new dining table and chairs and new curtains for the Lounge room. I refuse to feel guilty.....we've had a plastic garden table as a dining table for 10 years, and the last new bedding I had was before Sebi was born!!! This weekend we build the new deck out the front....bruce is already planning his first BBQ!!


Scrap wise, things have been a bit slow although I did manage to complete a layout today that I'm very happy with....It's kind of hard to get creative when your house is full of paint tins and boxed up furniture!! This is Sebi at four years old, recharging his batteries at Southbank after a morning at the Kodak Beach.
I really have got to get some more photos printed!!

Engineering Expo

Sebi really impressed me at the year 2 Engineering Expo on Friday. He made a speech about cable bridges and demonstrated a model of a house he designed for a cold country. He really loves to build stuff, so this was his time to shine. WELL DONE SEBI!!

A Scouting we will go....

Kit left this morning on his first ever Scout camp. They are staying at Mt Cotton and will be back mid afternoon Sunday. Here he is, all packed up and ready to roll. It was a very early start which accounts for the half asleep look on his face.

September Kit.

After a week where I have barely had time to think, I have finally managed to look at my September box of goodies from Basically Scrapbooking. Design team work definately makes you think "outside the box", which is why I was crawling round my front yard yesterday afternoon, trying to sneak up on the flowers. I was pretty pleased with the photos I got, the best one I used on my Floral Fantasy layout.
I've also managed another layout, a card and an OTP item, and I'm hoping to get another layout completed today. I tend to throw myself into the design team stuff, because the more I sit and look at it, the less work I seem to produce, lol.
