Saturday I didnt do much - I have been working on my blossom book and Jono took the boys to his mums for the day so i just had Alicia and she was an angel and had a really long nap too - Gotta love that! Then saturday night went up to my good friend Kells for a bit more of a scrap and she made the most yummiest dumplings!! OMG that woman can cook!! Every time i go up there i seem to get one of her yummy creations!!! So sunday i went up to Newcastle for the scrap needs monthly crop! Fun as always!! Did more on my mini album - Then got a bit stuck on it so did a LO instead! About me too!! I have got my mojo back now so i am scrapping away!! Gotta love that too!! So i did another LO this morning too - Jono had a RDO from work so i said oh honey - Can i scrap for a few hours PLEASE!!!! He said yes - It was blissful!! Gotta Love him aswell!!!

So this is the LO i did about ME!!! I am so happy with it too - I really do love that pic of me that Lib took!! Thanks Lib!!!! I cant wait to see some of the pics i took of her too!! Plus she took some of me on her camera aswell so dying to see them too!! Hope everything is ok Lib!!! Big Hugz so you get better quick!!!

I know Lib has some great pics on her camera too so cant wait to see them ones!! Had to show off just how pink Libs hair is too!! Fingers crossed that today went well for you too - I was thinking about you and did send you a message Lib but i am guessing you were probably a bit out of it!!

Anyway - I cant be bothered with any other pics - Stupid blogger is being a *******!!! Having one of THOSE days and just want to go to bed now!! Still have more retreat stuff to write - But mind is too URGHHH!! Tonight!! Later!!

Retreat #1!!!

OK we might have to do this in a few posts cause i could not possibly remember it all at once and i got SO many pics!! LOL!! So i didnt get many pics on friday!! LOL!! Only one of Shell but i dont think we should share that one!! LOL!! We scrapped until about 2/2.30am - I think we got kicked out cause Kell wanted to go to bed!! LOL!! We were listening to music and chatting and scrapping - It was fun!!
Saturday - Lots more scrapping and we had some demos - Chipboard demo from Roz, Foam stamp demo from Chris, and a shrink plastic demo from Shell - Unfortunately i had a killer headache for the last one so i missed some of it! After Shells demo -me and Sara headed over to the SPA!!! OMG - I want one!! So fun!! And so relaxing and it totally took care of my headache! Then we had to rush off to dinner - Yummy chinese banquet!! The honey chicken was SO YUMMY!!!!! Had a few wines with dinner!! And lots of fun was had at dinner!! Lots of photos taken (Which i think Jen has lots of them!!) Then we headed back down to the scrap room - But then me and Reggie headed back to the restaurant to buy some more wine!! Got caught up with a few other ladies still there and drank some more and danced away!!! Then headed back down to the hotel and i was chatting to just about everyone!! PMSL!!! I think i was a bit talkative in the scrap room - I was a bit (Just a little bit) drunk so i was chatting everyones ears off!! LOL!! Jen told me the next morning she thought it was funny though!! HAHAHA!! I must say i was a little embarrassed though cause i really dont usually talk THAT much!! HAHA!!
So sunday morning wake up and go back to the scrap room - I got 3 LOs done over the weekend (Which i cant take pics of cause my camera battery charger is in my suitcase which is in Saras car still cause she left a bit earlier than me with a hangover!! LOL!! Poor Sez!!! So sunday we had the raffle drawn and i won a book!! YAY!! Then we had a challenge pack we did and i finished that LO and had Jens demo which was doodling!! And now i have had enough typing so you will all have to wait for more another time!! LOL!!!
So some photos:
1st: Our table - Miss Regina is behind the camers but she was sitting next to me and Lib and Miss Sara is also missing (She went home for a little bit in the sat) she was in between Me and Just Jen!!!
2nd: Photo from Dinner - We were bored from waiting so long for the food!! LOL!!!

5th: Me and Michelle Grant - I had heard of her when i went but OMg - This woman is a blast!! Absolute crack up and such a lovely person too!! I am so glad i got to meet you Michelle and i most definately had fun chatting with you in the spa!! I will be linking your blog to mine too - And this woman's scrapping is devine!!! The detail in her work is amazing and i was just in awe looking through her album!! GORGEOUS!!!

now i didnt get a pic with me and Roz or me and Jen!! (DERRR!!) But i am hoping that people with pics will send them to me!! (I already asked Jen to burn me a cd and i was going to ask Lib too! And i know that Fee and Michelle had some good pics too so i was gonna see if i could get copies from them too (When i get photos i have to have as many as i can get!! LOL!! Love them!!) so hopefully maybe there is something on someone elses camera! )
Well thats enough for me for now - I have heaps more pics etc!! So more later or tomorrow!! LOL!!!

Happy 1st Birthday My Princess!!!

Well yesterday was my baby girls first birthday!! I still have such mixed emotions about it - I am so happy that she is growing into such a beautiful little girl but i dont want her to grow up anymore - I want the beautiful little baby i had a year ago back aswell! How sad!! I miss the baby smell and the baby snuggles and watching her sleep and her falling asleep in my arms (She will not do that anymore!) I miss my baby!
But then i have this amazing gorgeous little girl that i am watching learn new things every day - She is walking and talking and is so darn clever!! And i might have to say way too spoilt! She is turning into a little diva - Has to be around someone ALL the time and will not go near anyone other than mum and dad! She will cry as soon as anyone touches her! Maybe its a gal thing - Cause the boys were never this bad! But then i think its cute aswell cause she just loves us so much she wants us all the time!! LOL!! And she is getting quite demanding when she wants something too - I will have to do something soon before she turns into a spoilt little cow!! LOL!!
Well yesterday - We went to Chipmunks - a big indoor play centre - a few of my lovely friends came - Kellie with her cutie son Jackson, Jen and her adorable daughters Amelia and Marnie and Pink haired Lib with her gorgeous twins Claire and Charlotte! I had fun!! (Hope everyone else did too!! LOL!!) The kids all had fun - Especially around the food!! LOL!! And that jumping castle/slide i took Alicia on and got stuck on it!! LOL!! How funny!!! I got the most gorgeous pressies too (Well Alicia did!) Kellie made a lovely card and also bought a gorgeous little bangle and Jen made a lovely card aswell and altered a little beauty case - OMG - They are all such beautiful presents and cards! I LOVE them all - And i know Alicia will when she can appreciate them a bit more too!! I will have to get pics of them (Not today though - still have to pack!) Then when everyone got home we gave Alicia her presents - Well i had bought her this doll and when you press it in different places it says stuff - mama, papa etc etc - Well she is terrified of it - BUT Mitchy has fallen in love with it and is now carrying it everywhere and is now even asleep with it in his cot!! LOL!! Kids!!!!
Today - OMG OMG OMG OMG - I go to the scrapneeds retreat today - HOW AWESOME IS THAT!! I cant wait!! I am so excited!!! I have my batteries charged up for heaps of pics!!! (I got new ones after the bloody camera died on me yesterday!! GRRRR!!) Anyway - I should go start some packing at least!! Always leave stuff till the last minute i do!! HAHAHA!! Will leave you with some pics of Alicia on her bday!! (Thanks to Kell for emailing me some too!!!)

Only 1 WEEK to go!!!

Till i will be at the scrapneeds retreat!!! Having a blast - With some great friends!! How exciting!!!
I still havent done any tags yet!! I am wondering if i will ever get them done now!! LOL!! Need more hours in a day!! I
Sara - She has a blog (Hasnt posted on it yet but she has it!! LOL!!) I helped her with it today!! I put her blog in my links!!
Well it has been a busy few days again!! Matt has been pretty sick - Still with the croup and asthma! He went to school yesterday but was off again today - He just didnt seem right so i went with my mummy instinct!! He had sport today as well which i really did not want him doing! So he got another day off - I feel like a bad mummy - 4 days off in the first 4 weeks - But he was legitamely sick - Not me being a lazy cow!! LOL!! No matter how crap i feel - My kids come first!!
So i have been scrapping away!! I did my CJ - FINISHED !!!!! YAY!!! I also did a LO of Alicia! I am really happy with both too - Which is suprising - I have been really happy with a lot of my scrapping lately - Usually i think they are not good enough!! So it is a nice change for me!!
So my LO of Alicia - I got all these new gorgeous SEI papers that i had wanted - I saw them at Jens and was spewing that none of my LSS had any - WELL the shop at Erina got some and i grabbed them so fast!! LOL!!
My CJ - Is using all the K&Co Neopolitan papers and stickers!! I did something different with my sign in pages- I always hated tags so these ones you just stick on a pic and sign away!! Now my pages - I tied heaps of fabric and ribbon down each side and also tied some little jewellery charms in too - With pics of my kids!! Very cute!! And the LOVE is a mini book - I might show you the pages another time!! LOL!! I can only be bothered to add this many pics!!
*Edited to add: I cant believe i forgot to before but have to say that Jen helped me out with my CJ cover by doing the doodling on the front cover!! Which i LOVE!!! Sorry Jen!!!
