i have been the worst blogger in the world~
so my intention now, is to update once a week ... i think this is reasonably in my capabilties! LOL!
First exciting news tho, is that i get to see my dear friend in less than two weeks ... that makes me SUPER excited!~ I am excited to see the big production she helps put on at Creative Escape ... its going to be so fun! We even travel down there together, that will be so fun! I have had a real lull in the creative dept lately, just so time poor and feeling a bit in a rut, so this is going to be great to get me all inspired again ... i am already after putting my little book together, its so cute! So in a little over a week i head out ...
a few things have to happen before i get on the plane tho, one being our youngest turning 5! and that is to be celebrated with a "Fairies in the Garden" party ... so busy week next week! :-)
I do just have to add that i have the most wonderful husband ... it was his idea that i go to see Heidi ... he's the BEST~! and the best dad i know too! My sweet sister is going to pop by and help out too ... so lucky to have her around!
So my vege garden is growing nicely, and gary helped me last weekend put a roof over to keep the turkeys out ... they are not my favourite animals believe me. But now i have them out at least everything
is getting a chance to grow. We are eating lettuce, spinach and rocket and have beans and snowpeas flowering ... its all good ...
The girls have had their Athletics Sports this week, it was over two days as they are in different parts of the school ... so i managed to survive that (lots of waiting around for the finals etc) lucky our weather is stunning right now
made some frozen yoghurt as we had 28 degrees the other day, i guess summer is on its way ... i am so happy about that! i am a summer girl!
Have been out in the boat fishing ... such stunning weather for it! the girls have loved it ... shame we haven't bought a big feed of fish home ... one day maybe!
Found this cute heart for my office ... i love it!
Have the girls back in their rooms, still have finishing off to do in each of the rooms, but here's an update of E's for now ... its a surfy/beachy theme.
and anyone still reading this .... i do ship all over the place with the jewellery, so let me know if you want anything! :-)
p.s.
i did go see My Sister's Keeper ... i thought because i'd read the book i would be ok ... NO! i wasn't - neither was anyone else in the picture theatre, the whole place was crying. Drop me a line if you've seen the movie ... would love to know your thoughts. I just wanted to go home and hug my kids. It gives you a reality check that's for sure!
Its funny, in the book i really didn't like the mother ... i felt she was really cold and hard. But in the movie, i kept thinking the whole time how much she was like me ... which freaked me out a bit, i guess i'm quite a determined person, and the mother just didn't give up! anyways ... tell me what you thought!

Oh you're going to have the most brilliant time at Creative Escape! I look forward to hearing all about it when you get back.
Sorry.. haven't read the book or seen the movie. I usually avoid tear-jerker movies...especially at the cinema! Too embarrassing for me... LOL
