Snapshot Sunday ...

... sharing one taken last weekend ... ... look closely and you'll see ... A DOUBLE RAINBOW!
Been a busy week here, as Hubby away in Oz for work, this past week and next. So instead of travelling home just for a night or two he has gone to stay with my brother and family for the weekend in Melbourne. Taking in some rugby and today he is at the Formula 1 - lucky guy!!!

The kids and I got to talk to him on Skype a couple of times, also had fun talking with my 2 year old niece. Have only just set Skype this week and it's just the best - think we will make lots of use of it this year with another niece/nephew due to arrive later in the year!


Not much scrapping going on here, but slowly getting organised for 'Scraptastic' camp in a couple of weeks time - it's going to be a laugh esp with the duo of Julie and Kim in charge! Then just over a month later the Dunedin Camp is on - can't wait! Should get through my 'to scrap' list pretty quickly!


Hope you are all snuggled up warm in your part of the world, weather here has taken a turn towards winter today ... bbbrrrrrr!

Snapshot Sunday ...

... the last week has been pretty much a stock standard one for us.

Is a long weekend here in Dunners with Monday being Anniversary Day - wahoo!

Went to the rugby last night, been first time in a while I have been to a Super 15 game. But last night was the Southern Derby - Otago v Canterbury, and a huge crowd gathered for the game which gave a great atmosphere!

So my pic of the week for Snapshot Sunday is ...

... Finn and his new hero ...


Heading off for an early night now, been crook with an inner ear infection - pretty nasty stuff.
I know I promised some scrappy pics this week but sorry I forgot to take photos of them. Am going to try and finish off a couple more pages tomorrow so I'll see how I go! ;)

Snapshot Sunday ...

... a story about Emma this week ... and the repeat visits from the Tooth Fairy.

On Tuesday 29th after days of hanging by the tiniest thread her right top tooth came out ... and almost straight away the other top tooth starting going on a funny angle. Well yesterday it was just hanging in there ... there was a bit of wiggling and slight pulling ... (eewwwwwww I couldn't watch that!) ... and then with a slight push with her tongue ... it flew out!

So here are the Sunday Snapshots ...

Sat 4.30pm


and 20 min later ...

And a very excited girl ... who couldn't wait for the tooth fairy to visit last night ...


She looks so different now ... all gummy ... only a slight lisp ... so cute!
Had a very productive day scrapping with the Dunners girls today, 4 layouts and a couple of cards created. Might show some sneak peaks soon, if you are lucky! ;)

Snapshot Sunday ...

... a big day in our house today ... Finn celebrated his 8th birthday today. Can't believe he is 8 already, he is getting so tall, has a very caring personality, is a bundle of energy and I am so proud to be his Mum.

So naturally the Snapshot Sunday pics this week highlight what we have done today ...

Lunch out at Finn's fav restaurant - Speights Ale House ...


And prior to lunch we have a fun game of tenpin bowling ...


And the traditional candles on the cake photo ...


I will hopefully be back next week with some new scrap layouts for you. Have got some yummy new product to play with from SBO, now to find a spare hour or two in my week to lock myself in my scrap room!
