Snippits.. :)

Just a conversation between Jarred and I. Wanted to record it as it made my heart smile.

I had taken jarred to the dentist and they had pulled out a tooth that had been hanging on by a thread for over 6 months, the new tooth had grown through already and he was a little frightened to pull it out - so they numbed his gum and yanked it out. Lots of tears and quite a bit of blood as the gum had grown to the tooth and attached to the dead gum and tooth. Gross i know.......

so i took jarred home and on the way stopped for some lunch at a store on the way home. As we were pulling out a young guy was pulling out and staring at me - like really staring at me.

me: What is that guy staring at?

me: Sheesh he is still staring

jarred: probly coz your so gorgeous!

me: ha ha Jarred your funny (meantime my heart just melted)

jarred: What! its really true mum.


oh he can be so sweet and say the nicest things just at the right time.

My sweet boy. Love him.

Slack blogger!

Hmmm i think i fit in that category! Have had a very busy couple of weeks. We are smack bang in the middle of harvest and haven't seen much of my Husband. :( He has either been and work, sleeping or home while I'm at work. So any spare time has been spent lounging on the lounge together or sleeping.

Jarred turned 7 -YES!! 7 - how did that happen? I'm such a slacker and haven't uploaded any photos, but we have had one excited boy on our hands. He is in between playing batman Lego on the ps3 or listening to music and trying every dvd he owns on his new home theatre thing. (yes i am technical savvy - that's all i know it as he he he).

Been working lots during the day so I'm too buggered at night to blog, blog hop or leave comments when i have visited. And I'm very sorry - as i know how happy it makes us to read lovely comments by our visitors!!
I have done some scrapbooking - but nothing i can share - yet!. am in the middle of doing a layout and I'm having a break from it so I'm blogging. I found a very very gorgeous layout on Leanne S's blog and I'm scrap lifting that also as we speak - type.
Kim Archer and Jane from crafty matters have joined forces and created a fundraiser workshop where all proceeds are donated to the Victorian bushfire appeal. Its a pfd file of printable tags and journal spots and it is just gorgeous!!! I have printed mine off and started (yet again!) a layout featuring them. Awesome idea and i hope they go well with it. I also added a class that i have been meaning to do - the fresh vintage one. I haven't started it yet but I'm all prepared and have even bought some packing tape!! LOL
I don't know whats wrong with my scrapping lately. I pumped out 5 layouts in two days, and ever since then, I managed to start a few layouts, and haven't finished them. So not like me. Once i start one i have to finish it there and then. I never leave layouts unfinished..... I guess at least i will have something to do over the weekend hey!!
mmmm all this typing and i have no pictures to share. :(
Next time. Thankyou for stopping by - I love getting visitors!! xx

I think I have ocd.

I really am starting to convince myself that i must have some kind of obsessive compulsive compulsion for Twilight. I check out the new moon the movie site almost daily. And i have no filppin idea why. Ok. I do, Robert Patterson is hot. Yes i do realise that. Oh and Taylor Lunther is hot too. I just am sooo addicted to these blasted books. Surly I'm not the only one? So to get the obsessive compulsive compulsions out of the way - here he is in all his glory.
*sigh*
And just because this blog is mainly about my scrapbooking (and my new found twilight addiction :) ) Here is some scrappin!!
This is my latest lo. I used an oldie Scrapboxx kit from July (i think maybe June) last year. Beautiful beautiful kit too!!! And my favourite photo of my boys and My SIL two gorgeous boys. :)
And here is my march effort for AUSSIE SCRAPJACJED!!!!! and the Jackee for march was the super talented Helen K.! I really really love scrap jacking her layout. I used some of the kit for feb from Lime Tart. Its the Laundry line from My Minds Eye. yummo stuff.

So if you need some inspiration head over to the ASJ site and check out the oodles of talent there, i was blown away by the layouts the other DTers created! They are all awesome! And there is a super cool prize up for grabs - as always!!!

Thanks for stoppin by. Don't forget to leave a comment so i know you dropped in! ;)

Ahhhh, normality.


This little set of books (actually they are not little!!) has taken up my entire being the last 9 days. My husband draged me to the movies to watch it and i instantly loved it and bought the first book the next day. Half way through that it dawned on me - when i finish this i wont have the next one to start and soooo the obsession began.

Sad hey.


So my suggestion to you is GO GET THE DARN SET NOW, you will cry. you will laugh, and you will most certainly fall in love. It is better than titanic. I compare it to titanic because two people fall instantly in love and they both come from different worlds and the universe does not want them to be together. I am definatly a team Edward member. Although Jacob does have some rather hot qualities.

ok enough of the obsession.

I have some really really exciting newses coming up. Not just news coz it pural there are multipal news - es!!


My very first layout acceptances are going to print and so quickly. I thought it would take months and months. And the othere 2 i am bursting to spit out. but im not sure i can just yet. Soon though. :)



I recently purchased two lime tart kits. OMG! They are just perfectly thrown together. I havent' used one of them yet but the first one is just so yummy. Here are two layouts i created from allthe yummyness!

They have loads of My mind eye papers in them and everything just co ordinated beautifully together. I have more but havent loaded them onto the computer as yet. Will do though.

Jarreds school is having a blue light disco for receptions to yr 7's tonigh and he is allowed to go (bighting nails here) He is very very excited about it. And so the social life begins. :)

I recently acquired a brand new mobile phone and I LOVE it!! its an lg the 'secret'. Its a very handy little thing. It has a 5mp camera on it and the photos are really great quality, you would hardly tell if they were from a point and shoot camera or not. Im very impressed with it. Its a very tircky little number and can convert into a touch screen phone. Its so technical and modern for me!!

enough blabbling ive probably boared the socks off you! Thanks for droping by and please leave a hello comment I love seeing visitors. ;)

Devistating.

The bushfires in Victoria have been deeply devistating. I had lots of 'news' to post. But feel so inappropriate and trival.


My heart goes out to the families who have lost lives and homes. I cannot imagine what you are going through. I did read or hear somewhere that there was a fire at Naree Warren, that is where Fleur and her family live. I have left her a message praying they are ok and safe.
There have been amazing stories of courage and survival. I hope to hear more.
