NEW ZEALAND!

So! onto the next travel album! the kids will love this one - photos from our trip to New Zealand last year.

It seems so long ago now, Declan with his broken arm and gappy teeth LOL - perfect photography subject.

It's an almost wintery ANZAC day here today - blowing a gale which is quite cold hmmmm that reminds me - this sort of weather almost always means that it is snowing down south - I hope so that would make a wonderful start to the ski season! Although it is still way too early probably.

I spent a lazy morning preparing to scrap more photos from NZ and sat out on the grass with my laptop, seeing as Declan is at his dad's for the weekend it is my job to look after baby bluetongue. He doesn't really have a name yet - baby bluey, lizzie then Callum (which was confusing seeing as Declan's best mate is Callum) Then he was Bob for a while (to which we all sang - Bob the Bluetongue, can he eat it, Bob the Bluetongue can he eat it YES HE CAN!) right now it's Ben though - we'll see if this one sticks. So he and I sat on teh grass sunbaking and then he ate a lot of porridge! (they eat anything honestly!) A few F111's flew over to mark the day, then it was time to scrap!

So here are a few LO's from teh album - a very simple but stylish setout again so teh photos are the predominant feature and of course simple enough to mean I can scrap them very quickly!

I Hope you're all having a great long weekend as well.

the very last

Well seeing as I finally made a start on the NZ album today I thought it was high time I shared the last of the swiss pics with you all.

time is flying, one lot of school holidays are already past for the year, Sian sits her scholarship exams very soon and next week Declan heads off on his very first school camp! They will be sleeping under the water at Underwater World for the night! how cool! bet there isn't much sleeping going on though LOL!

So maybe tomorrow you'll see some of the NZ pics if I get myself organised!

I have to add that I truly love the photos I have here from Ruth and Jacobs farm - these ornaments hanging are hundreds of years old used in gathering the hay!

I've been forgetful again!

Well not really forgetful - can we squeeze another few hours in a day please??? very busy around here, so much going on at the school for the end of term and so much to organise!

My gorgeous boy truend 8 on Monday - he's almost grown up! lucky for me he still tells me every morning that he loves me! Mind you I think that hs affections lie elsewhere right now! Most of you would know about Declan's affinity with any wildlife, well finally he's convinced me to get a recreational wildlife license so he can keep certain pets - ie blue tongues, dragons and SNAKES!!!! I convinced him to start small and easy so we are now the proud owners of a baby bluetongue - he is soooooo cute! I'll take some photos of him over the weekend - but this afternoon he was sitting on Declan's shoulder watching TV and then sat on the bench besdie him while we did homework!

OK - nearing the end of the trip but still about 6 pages to share so here goes!
