Ok , here goes...Not much action in the scrapping region...Got a very quick page done recently...so easy to do thinking of sticking with this style to try and catch up a bit on the kids albums, although, I did blob some paint on a couple of pages, but don't really like the colours much...may have to experiment and get better colours...Connors page of his turning two..what a precious poss he was!!!not too bad now either!!!
Here you will find little snippets of my life and how I try and grow food, feed my family healthy foods, sew, crochet, craft, knit , art and craft, preserve food and discover how to leave less of an environmental impact. You will see some homeschooling ideas and ways of making a comfortable and fun, albeit simple, home for my family.

Here is the latest in my pages. It was a challenge on the TBSS site where you needed to use multiphotos, multifonts, bling and stamping. The 2000 Olympics for us was such an experience. We got to see the basketball where the Aussie girl team played. We went to the rowing in Cranebrook and we went to the site before the Olympics to check it out, and we were in the village wher I had won tickets to the closing ceremony...only the village though...but it was still an awesome experience.

25th September...More Pages
25th September
Been a bit busy this week so haven't had much of a chance to do much...Have done a couple of pages for challenges on the TBSS site.One is a picture...in fact one of the very first pictures I took of all the kids together after the twins went through their illness and time in hospital. I was a bit scared to take one in case it would be a bad omen or something...silly I know. The starry one is another challenge from TBSS...you needed stars, star in title and stripey paper...

So, thought I'd add a page I did about my son, Jacob. It is the most personal page I have done and it was wonderful therapy too...he suffers from a life threatening condition and asked me one day, "Am I going to die from it Mummy?". Another time he has said, "I thought I was going to die." and "I was terrified". It tears my heart open. I reassure him that he will be safe...
On a lighter note I got a journal, a visual arts journal that I can put all my ideas on, instead of having stray bits of paper everywhere...it's working well .
