What a sad and depressing header but I am facing reality here and for me it is sad. My dd turns 2 this Wednesday the 28th. I cannot believe she is nearly 2! Where has the time gone by? She is so cute nowadays. She says the cutest things and loves to play with her blocks and slide. Every night before bath time I put her on the potty but all she does is tell me very loudly 'peepee' but there is no

Yesterday I had the great privilige to meet Dianne. She lives about 40min drive away from me and we have been corresponding over email for a while now. Yesterday she was in town and we had lunch together. Oh my gosh but we chatted and chatted over Scrapbooking and Digital scrapbooking and all sorts!

We have been suffering some power cuts here and this is the first time I have been on-line in days. Lol, so used to digi life and all on the internet and I missed chatting to everybody and stalking the blogs. It is no fun to be cut of like this. I have been creative though so that is a good thing!

The response was amazing! I could not believe that so many people were there! It was such a lovely experience and we enjoyed it so much! Poor Laura was so worried becuase the site just could not handle the volume of traffic we experienced! Added to that the two hour special sale for those who attended the crop just overloaded the system totally! But I think everybody had fun even though it was so

Hi there, I was motivated to scrap again by Alisha's challenge for the week to scraplift a LO she did and here is what I came up with...I used Gina Carbrera's Delightful Kit and fonts are Petra Script. I just had to scrap this picture, it was taken on Christmas Eve and as you can see my dd is having a well earned break from all the attention but not for long because Mommy sees a photo opportunity

Hope you all had a fantastic time over the New Year! We had a quiet BBQ at home with just my Mom and my nephew so nothing major but we played backgammon and played some Playstation! There is a reason why we have not bought one yet but only hire it over the holidays because me and my dh are so addicted to games! It will not be healthy! Well I am in my new workspace and it looks terrible here so no

We are off to my In Laws in a few hours where the proverbial feast will be awaiting so hopefully no weight restrictions on our way back! Lol! My dd had such a fun time she only went to bed at 11pm no way that we could get her to rest with all our visitors and the Big Surprise my Cousin

I think to me the most nostalgic and special Christmas memory was while I was pregnant. I was only in my first trimester and very emotional! It was my first and to date only pregnancy so I didn't know what to expect. Why I remember this so vividly is because all the dreams you weave and the special moments I had with my husband dreaming about next year when Chrismari will be there how she would
