My scrap room

Here is my scrap room in the new house. It's finally starting to take shape so that I can see the size of the work area. The room is 4x4 metres and has a 3 metre wardrobe - which will be used for storing all of my supplies. I'm so excited to be going into this space and I know that I'm very very lucky. I'm just so glad that I started scrapping before we built so that i could accomadate this hobby. :-D

Pupil of the Week

Xavier got Pupil of the Week yesterday. He was so funny, he didn't hear his name get called out so he just stayed seated. I had to go and tell a teacher to let him know he had to stand up at the front of the school. He was so thrilled, he stood in front of all the other kids and held his card out for everyone to see. He had the biggest smile on his face - I'd also let him have his first lunch order and when he came out of school at the end of the day he told me that it was his best day at school ever.

Pink Hibiscus

Pink Hibiscus had a stall at the Werarama Festival in Werribee on Sunday. It was quite a good succuss with us getting the PH name out there. It was freezing though, we were so cold that we had to wrap ourselves in blankets like little old ladies. I understand why the elderly need lap blankets, my legs were so cold and I got a chill in my kidneys - very painful. Our stall looked fantastic though. We had a large banner with Pink hibiscus printed on it. We had our hot pink hats with our logo on them and our t-shorts with the logo. It was very professional looking thanks to DH's designs and Lisa's DH doing all of the printing for us. I finally got our business cards and they look awesome, my DH is a bit of a star designer. I'll scan the business card and post soon.

Favourites

This is one of my favourite pics of Xavier at the moment. I'm thinking of getting some photos printed on canvases for the new house I just have to pic which photos.

New lens

I finally bought a 50mm lens for my camera and I love it, it takes the most wonderful close up portraits. Here is a pic of Aurora using the new lens and my new backdrop. I can't wait to get my photography studio set up in our new house.

House update

Here's the latest pic of our new house. We are currently up to lock-up stage - we can no longer get in to have a look around, which worries me a bit because the builders have stuffed up so many things already. Our completion date is June 16 - hopefully we will be in earlier but if not June's not too far away.

SM Vol 8 No 8

Here is my DD on the cover of February's Scrapbooking Memories. How exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kids Tree

Every year we take photo at a tree in Torquay to show how much the kids have grown. My plan is to do a scrapbook LO for each year with journaling of what has happened that year. Here is 2005 and 2006.(which was taken a bit late but Shhhhh) :-D
