Australia Day Long weekend and Melbourne's Heat Wave

We had a wonderful long weekend caught up with many of our friends. On Sunday night the kids went for a sleepover together at there Nan and Pop's this is the first time in over 3 years that we have not had both kids over night...We went to Mel and Kevins for dinner with Greg and Jenni had a great night with lots of laughter. On Sunday we went to another BBQ and had an enjoyable night. Craig was riding a motorbike around there backyard and Riley was on it as well he thought it was fantastic he did'nt want to get off.

This week we are in for a heatwave temps in high 30's and low 40's I let the kids play in there clam shell pool and have icy poles to escape some of the heat. I will be able to get lots of scrapping done this week as I will be staying inside to escape the heat. Leaving you today with a few favorite pics

January 30th Class

I am excited about this Fridays class, last year I was inspired by Ali Edwards Days of December Album so this year I have decided to do a Memories 2009 album that records all the memorable moments throughout the year the album is divided into months. I have been using all the bits and pieces from my stash at home and I know we all have one of these stashes so this is a perfect opportunity to use them. If you are interested in this class and live locally to Endevour Hills contact me on cindyc74@hotmail.com Here are some sneak peaks of the class the album cover 1 page and a transparency page..

* This class wil now be on Febuary 6th cancelled due to extremely hot temp all week

AWARD

I have been given this award by the very talented Nicole so now I am going to boomerang it back to her and give it out to people who inspire me
These blogs believe and invest in PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers, who must choose eight more and include this cleverly written text into the body of their awards".
And in celebration of the continuing friendship and support that I have been fortunate to come across I am passing the award on to these beautiful and inspiring women -

I teach classes at the Endevour Hills Tennis Club every second Friday and one Saturday a month we have a crop. I have a great group of girls that come and I am always getting new people joining in. Our crops are always filled with heaps of laughter and sometimes we do get stuff done. I have lots of new and exciting classes coming up this year along with our usual outings to Crop 4 Kids, Picture 2 page, Paperific. I am also planning a weekend away devoted to anything scrapping, eating and drinking..also I have Rowena lined up to give a basic Digital SLR talk..Look forward to sharing my year with you all

For Marie

I was tagged from maries at Simply Said in Warrigal you had to go to your pictures upload your 6th photo and explain what the photo is about....

This is Olivia at her Grade 1 Easter Bonnet parade I love making her hats I think I turn into a bit of a stage mum I seem to make the hats bigger and bigger each year. Olivia was lucky enough to make it into the local paper with this hat much to my delight we are starting to get a collection of hats. Olivia got a new hat for Grade 2 and her teacher wore her Grade 1 hat she won best teacher hat...

My Scrapbooking Classes

I have a huge addiction to anything scrapbooking and I love teaching my classes every 2nd Friday ( I also have crops 1 saturday every month) Last Saturday was the first crop back for the year and we had a big crowd, it was great to catch up with everyone again after the Christmas break.

I am addicted to Tim Holtz masks and distressing ink and thanks to Suz and Nic I had a play on several Layouts during the night. I did a Layout of Riley and is obsession with Spiderman
