Dreamworld


Harrison and Ethan were pretty timid when it came to going on the rides. But when their dad took them on the rollercoaster in Nickelodeon, they were hooked. They went on this ride a couple of times!

I would say the best part of Kaleb's day would have been in the ball area at Nickolodeon. He loved to walk around and pick up all of the balls. At one stage he was helping a teenage boy to pack one of the blasters. It was very cute.


Ethan wasn't too sure about going on the Log Ride, but once he'd done it, all was good. We lined up for about 1 hour ARGH!!!




My two big boys...



Mini Family Trip January 2009

We decided to take some time away from home and work for a few days before the kids went back to school and routine. We spent one night with friends in Toowoomba and then we headed to the Gold Coast for two nights. Here Ali and the kids were playing beach cricket at Main Beach.


This is Kaleb in Queens Park in Toowoomba, having a great time on the playground.



Melissa took the kids over to the fence to feed Goldie some home grown carrots. Kaleb still talks about Goldie, the horse, and she says 'neigh' Very cute LOL

This is the Danelle Box that I have started. It is 12 little albums inside a box - just gorgeous and it's going to be about me! Well, that will be difficult, but I'm looking forward to working on it more. The papers I have used are Sakura Park, Kaisercraft!
This is the inside cover of the box



This is the front cover of the box.



This is a card I have made for a special friend this month. It started as a challenge at The Scrapbook Establishment, to make our own lollipop flowers, and I have done this with cardstock and then inked the circles and distressed the edges and voila, you have a flower. It's only my first one, so I think I can get better as I go.




Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Years and here's cheers to 2009! I don't have any resolutions - I try not to make any because I never seem to keep them. I would still like to keep fit and it would be a bonus if I could lose another say, 5kg. I don't think that's too hard a goal to start with!

Our New Years eve party was pretty big, still recovering actually LOL. I only drank 2 bottles of champagne, but it was the shooters that got me. And of course I had some partners in crime, and I'm happy to say they were all feeling a little under the weather yesterday aswell.

I'm excited about Ethan starting Prep (YAY full time schooling), Ethan starting soccer for his first year (let me tell you, he is very excited about that) and Harrison will be starting Year 3. Kaleb also starts day care one day a week and will also still spend a day at his cousins house and another day with his Nanna and Poppy, while I go to work.

Have a great year everyone!! xx
