Back to school...

Kaitlyn went back to school today... she is in Year 2 this year... she isnt actually in a class as yet they just go back into their old classes. Hopefully by the end of this week she will have her class for this year...she was very happy to go back as was i LOL... it was very quiet around here without her thats for sure... so here is her first back to school photo for this year...

ok other things... we had australia day last weekend and since kaitlyn was at her dads we decided to celebrate australia day on the public holiday monday instead... each year we go down to Grose World at Richmond... it has a great river that is great for the kids to swim in not too deep and its pretty clear.. we had a great day as it was so warm the kids spent the entire time in the water (ok yes and i did too lol).. mum and dad bought the kids some blow up rings and a blow up boat to use.. they had so much fun (my poor dad had to pull them in and out all the time though as the current was strong we tied a rope to the end of the boat..lol you can tell he loves his grandkids lol).. it was a great day with the whole family... had a pinic lunch and lots of swimming what could be better..

ok not alot of scrapping getting done latley... oh i have nearlly caught up on my everyday journal which is pretty good for me lol... going over to Kylie's tomorrow for a scrap day (her kids go back to school tomorrow so we are having a peaceful day without kids lol)..so hopefully ill get a few things done tomorrow (or should i not say that as it never happens we just tend to sit and chat and chat some more lol).. oh well it will be a good day anyway...

Other things dont forget ScrapGirls retreat is coming up soon in April... this weekend is going to be a lot of fun so if you can come and join us for the weekend... check out the website for details...

Here are some scrappy things i have done latley... these pages and mini book are on the homepage at the moment over at KSK.. using the new christmas Rhonna Farrer papers.. they are really yummy...

Kaitlyn had a sleep over at Kylie's house last wednesday and she loved it... this was after the huge storm that happened that day and the black out that kylie had lol.. right in the middle of a movie that we were watching ... oh well at least i finally got to see the rest of the movie...

today kaitlyn starts her intensive swimming lessons.. she goes each afternoon for half an hour.. and yes as always when kaitlyn goes swimming its wet and raining...i reckon the weather knows she is going back to swimming lessons lol and its cold... must take and umbrella and i think ill be wearing a jumper (lol in the middle of summer that is ridiculous)..

Yeah my girl is home...

My girl came home on friday and its so good to have her here with me.. She spent last week at her dads and it was very quiet at home thats for sure... but she is now back with me safe and sound and i love having her here with me (although she never stops talking lol) but she is my girl and i love her to bits.... she lost another tooth today she has nearlly no teeth left to loose i reckon i just wish the others would hurry up and grow back lol... now another one gone from the front she really does look like a toothless terror lol... oh not to mention how poor the tooth fairy is now lol... there is still another loose one so that should also fall out soon i think...
