Kaiser Bushka Range

This is such a creative design.. It can be interpreted in so many ways. You can use it for little girls with the little babushka dolls, you can make it more grown up and just use the flowers or I even saw something just a little different in it. My mother in law is from Holland, and what is native to Holland but these little wooden dolls and clogs.... I had the perfect picture too that would show off the Dutch in the papers and the pic.

Luv the Clogs....

This month for April the Simple Sketch Plan I found to be far from Simple...., so I decided to put the sketch to work with these Bushka papers and my pic of Netty! Turned our pretty well!

Now to start on the K-Bots paper! Have just the pic for it too! Be back very soon!

The Storm Boy

It has been quite humid today, and it was nice to see the rain and a bit of a storm. Travis was so excited when the rain came down, we were sitting on the front verandah, having a cold drink, watcihng the storm come over, when the rain hit, the next thing we knew Travs clothes are off except for his undies, and he is running around in the rain, twirling, squealing with delight, giggling is head off, he was having so much fun.... As the pics show!

I can see a layout in the midst......

Its a Boy Thing!

Ning Nings! Every afternoon Cooper asks to go for a ride on the motorbike.... So this afternoon I thought it be a good idea to snap off a few pics. Cooper is so serioius when he is riding, he doesn't let his hands come off the handles, its like he is riding it himself, the smile doesn't come on the face until after the motorbike has stopped.

Grant & Coop

So before the storm hit, I watched Cooper and Grant go round and round and round the back yard.

My heart goes out....

to my dear friend. Not long ago I made that gorgeous album for my girlfriend for her to put all those favourite photo's of her mum in it and journal about. Well this morning my friends mum passed away! She was only 58! That is such a terrible tragedy to loose your mum not only at such a young age, but my friend is just as young, still in her 20's.

Honestly my heart goes out to her, I feel so terribly helpless. There is nothing I can do to ease me friends pain, other than to be there for her. I got the phonecall at 7am this morning, I had just got up, I had to get ready for work, shower, hair, makeup, get the boys up, dressed, brekky and somewhere in between I managed to make a card, how I threw it together so quickly still amazes me, but I got it done, so that when I got to work, I could send her a bunch of flowers with the card from the florist next door. And I even thought to make the card, to match the album that I made! Funny how your mind takes over when you aren't even thinking clearly!

With Sympathy card

Close Up

I am still pretty speachless at the moment, and still feeling so terribly useless, but I know my girlfriend will cherish the card and the album even more so now.

Thinking of you

March Kaisercraft Releases

Kaiser have done it again! This months papers have catered for the boys, and of course another for the girls, but two for the boys!! Yeh!!! So hard to find boys papers! And I am loving both boy ranges! Absolutely gorgeous!



Wait until to see them, stay tuned, I will upload more on the 15th of March.

My little man is 6 already!

Where does the time go. I can still remember my first born, my pregnancy, my birth, the sleepless nights, the joys of watching him grow, and now today he is 6 years old! Time is flying!!! I need to step off this ride and just reflect, watch, observe, to cherish!




Travis has always been my angel. My good boy, my soft and sensitive, loving, caring, and very intelligent boy, not to mention quiet.

Trav at Dinner

We took a birthday cake into school today so that he could have cake with all of his friends, no big birthday party this year as we did the big Macca's thing last year. We went to the bowling club for tea, and met Aunty Michelle and his cousin Brock there. He was so happy!

Trav glued to the XBox - LOL!
He got so many wonderful presents. An Xbox 360 and games: Kung Fu Panda, Indiana Jones Lego Man, Halo Wars, Saints Row, Crash Bandicoot and The Bee Movie Game. He also got three DS games, My little Kitten, Dinosaurs and Spyro, plus Mel is in Bangkok at the moment and she is bringing back a gamepak with 30 DS games on in too! OMG he is going to be stoked. Plus he got a few smaller things of us too, like a Transformer, some Bakugans and some pool stuff. Very spoilt, but also very loved and very deserving....

HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY TRAV! Love You!

Happy 85th Granny

Yes my Granny, (my dads mum) has reached 85 years old. What a feat! Even though she lives in a nursing home due to becoming blind (from Diabetes) she still has all her faculties, she can reminisce about the old days, and what her kids got up to, she know who you are as soon as you walk in the room, how I do not know, but she does.



So to celebrate her turning 85, we got all the family together, my Aunty from Darwin, my Uncle and Aunty from Kempsey, My Aunty and Uncle from Eastern Creek, my Aunty and Uncle from Thornton and of course my mum and dad, me and my boys, my cousin, his partner and their daughter. We all went over to the Junction Inn for lunch, then back to mum and dads for coffee and cake.

Granny and all the family!

After coffee and cake, dad decided to entertain the kids with a ride around the back yard on the lawn mower, and well some of the bigger kids as well. Good on ya Mandy and Uncle Ian....



It was a lovely day, great to see all the family together again. Happy 85th Birthday Granny, hope you hade a perfect day!

I just love family!
