Happy Australia Day...

Happy Australia day everyone... i hope you all enjoyed today and had lots of fun with friends and family... I sure did... our family every year goes down to the river which is great for the kids to swim in (as its really shallow) and of course the big kids like me also LOL... so we had a great day.. as usual kaitlyn got all dressed up in her aussie clothes and stuff she loves to wear on Australia day...it was nice and warm out so swimming was great and the water was just right... silly me got a tad sunburnt so its a bit sore now LOL... but all good we did have a great day so thats all that matters...

I have been doing lots of scrapping latley too... i am still in the process of Shimelle's online free class and i have kept up so far and im loving how its turning out.. will take pics once it has been finished...

I also got to play with some yummmy new products that we got in at the shop... this is one page i did using the new Little Yellow Bicycle range...i actually like how this turned out as its really not my style at all...

and here is my last Creative Scrappers sketch page that went up... love how this one turned out, also thanks to Nicole who gave me some ideas for this page....

so there you have it another long post LOL... must try to blog more often hey....

ok hope you all have a great week... school goes back for Kaitlyn on wednesday and she is so looking forward to it (LOL so am i LOL)...
