Australia Day 2014

Off on a fun fwding adventure today for Australia Day... We had lots of fun with my parents and us heading up the mountains...it was a bit wet but that made it more fun and we got to have our lunch just before the rain set in...
This was the start of the track... It's not a bad one but we had heaps of fun and can only be acsessed by 4wd...
Dad's car coming down the hill...
Gregdad and kaitlyn on our bush walk...
Craig being his usual silly self...
On our way out we did a detour and went through where the huge bush fires were last September and we found this memorial for the fire fighters was very well done...

Then we headed home for afternoon tea and mum fixed my crochet project that started falling apart lol... I now know how to stitch them together properly...
Off to crochet some more

Cooking time

Ok for those who know me well know that I don't cook. My husband even bans me from the kitchen lol. But today I was checking out some blogs and found a recipe for honey joys...I haven't had them for do long so decided to make some for our fwding adventure tomorrow for Australia Day...
I've made a large slice for tomorrow which I'll be topping it off with melted chocolate and nuts and with the left overs I made some into patty pans
Yumm they are now cooling can't wait to try them...
Off to do some crocheting whilst we wait for them to cool

2014 a better year

Well another year is here and the first month is nearly over already…I've decided this year is going to be an easy one for our family after the worst year of our lives last year…

I'm going to try and be more productive this year in getting things completed… still trying to decide wether or not to do Project life this year (will be only doing a monthly theme not weekly)… but im really wanting to get back into my scrapping and playing with paper again…

Crocheting has taken over my life lately lol… but I'm loving it and have way too many projects on the go… so this year is going to be a finish year and try and not start too many new things… (well from now on that is LOL as i have already started one new crochet project)…

this year I'm doing a 365 day crochet blanket…I've chosen to only do a few small hexagons each day but have done well so far…

2014 369

I got some lovely new books and hooks for Christmas which are getting some very good use this year already… so that is all I'm committing to so far this year LOL… we will see how i go as i just cant resist a good challenge…

Craig is back to work and Kaitlyn still has a few weeks left of school holidays… I'm still working but only doing afternoon shift which is great while she is still on holidays… we spent yesterday out having a nice family day caching and a picnic… still really warm here so its nice to be outside in the sun…

Kaitlyn had fun chasing the large farm sprinkler around the road and got very wet…

Well off to finish off an unfinished project…

till next time (maybe that will be another thing this year to update my blog more often we will see)
