I cut it!!

Well I cut my long locks of!! A week ago I went to the hairdresser for my usual colour and word had got around (thanks mum) that I was ready to cut my hair, so as not to dissapoint my hairdresser I said 'ok we can cut it today!' - I was going to dwell on the thought for a couple of weeks! she really thinned it down and layered it, and now a week later I love it! I have had it so long for over half my life, it took a few days to adjust to my reflection and not see so much hair! I do miss my long ponytail though, like when Im at the gym and Im doing high impact stuff and my ponytail resembled a horses mane running a race and now my tiny little ponytail begins to fall out during my workout! anyway enough of my hair, or as Mark says stop looking at yourself and stop taking pictures of yourself!!

Here are a couple of older layouts first is Blessed is what I am, the photo is of Bethany and I, I was taking a self portrait of us 2 and I accidently took that photo of us and I love how happy I look!

Very ladylike is of Bethany, you probably cant tell through here but her little jeans are halfway down her little bum and I couldnt resist taking a shot of it! I also loved the new Daisy Ds range of paper which I used for this, I also have journalling on the side of the photo but I dont think its that noticeable through here.

I do have so many more layouts to upload and finish, I tend to leave the journalling to do at a later date, so at the moment I have quite a few that need journalling as their finishing touches.

another post!

Im back within 2 weeks of my last post!!

I'll start first with some layouts first up 'precious' is of Ella (obviously asleep!) I have been having some 'trying' times with her lately - you wouldn't guess by her 'sweet' chubby little face!!

Next 'you shine' is of Bethany, I have been taking some real gorgeous photos of her lately, and shes starting to tell me to get the camera to take a picture of her if shes doing something!

'Cherish the moments' is a photo of Mark and I on the balcony of the Rendevous in the city, where we stayed for our anniversary back in April, because of Marks dark complexion its hard to make him out! - or its my poor photography skills!

Next another one of Bethany, she was behind a pole which is why theres only half of her in the photo, I love her whispy (unbrushed) hair and her delicate features.

last up another one of Bethany I think I titled it Happy, just another beautiful photo of her I just had to scrap!!

Not alot to mention, I am contemplating on getting my very long thick hair cut - and I mean CUT! - more on that on another post maybe!

Little 20 month old Ella has been testing my patience, when something doesn't go her way she throws whatever is in her hand (or whatever is close to her) then throws herself to the ground - at first I thought it was cute but now its starting to test me as it is happening more and more!

Well thanks for reading, will be back soon!!

After a long absence...

I have returned! I thought that maybe a month had passed since I had last blogged but I was surprised to see it is nearly 2 months!

So what have I been up to lately? not a great deal, a fair bit of scrapping! on last count I had finished about 40 pages so far this year, I think I have come to the point where I just need to get rid of all the new accumulated products that just seem to find a way to my desk!

I have posted a few photos of the kids, Jacob turned 9 a couple of weeks ago, we gave him a couple of hermit crabs - another thing to add to my feeding and cleaning list! the kids and I have grown quite fond to 'herbie and hermie'!
Ella is growing so quickly and I seem to get asked if Bethany and Ella are twins! they are so cute together although I have noticed lately that they are starting to annoy each other a bit, I usually hide in another part of the house! lol! I am so blessed with my kids especially Jacob and his sweet natured spirit - he is such a blessing in helping me with the girls and keeping them entertained.

Here is also a layout of the girls I did a while ago titled A priceless photo, Bethany was all dressed up in her princess outfit and Ella was in her wiggles tights, her squeky shoes and a fairy skirt (a mismatched outfit!) they just looked really cute but really daggy at the same time!!

Well I better be of, Mark just got home from the footy, I dont want to find out if his team won - because I really dont care! lol! and he just told me they did, doh.

I am planning on returning regularly to the cyber world after a bit of a break, I will also be off to Qld in November for the Scrap of Faith retreat which will be quite exciting!

Anyway till next time - and it will be within a couple of months! lol!
