My last post including netball - i promise...


So we have our weekends back...... oh what to do???
The kids have had their presentations over the last two weekends. Aaron received a medalian for Hockey and Regans team won the U11 age group..... go girls!!!






finally she's jumping...



and since netball season was over we went and got Regans ears done again (she had them when she was 5 but let them close up)forgetting that she had a gala day in Newcastle the next day with school...oooops.... She had to leave at 5am so I taped them up and hoped for the best.. luckily they let her play and her mixed team ended up winning 7 out of 10 games....



On the way home on Sun we thought we might buy a lamp for Regans bed - forgetting how little space we actually had for the base we picked up one that looked to us like its stem was close to the edge of the base....

After a bit of swearing ... some major modification....



and a bit of squeezing...



here it is..... looks good eh...

I've done it again

Busy, busy, busy.....I've been doing two jobs lately which I thought i could handle no probs but apparently I'm not super mum and other things have gone to the wayside. My second job finished on Tue and I'm feeling sooo relieved.... back to normality..

So again, in short...

There has been more netball - the U11 development team went to Port a couple of Sundays ago and came 2nd in 1st division - well done girls!!!






Aaron performed with his class in drama competition in which they won best play.... He was a limerick knight -for those of you that know aaron and how he speaks (he has dyspraxia) you will understand why it took me two days to work out what he was.






Shane and I popped down to Sydney so he could get some more work done on his tattoo and I spotted this cute thong heart...








The kids sung at the Rememberance Day ceremony




And went to the school disco dressed as Zac Power and Nancy Drew...





Check out Aaron showing the whole school his moves..





I managed to fill the house, not to mention the shed and garage with forms and boxes



The birds have been hanging around in the front garden....it must be spring





Talking of birds I took this photo of a Kookaburra - check him out - he's pooping, what are the chances??? Maybe I should send it to national geographic?



Shane 'pruned' the fruit trees.... leaving me two leaves on each tree...



The tickets are starting to accumilate to the end of winter sport functions...Ahhhhh to have out weekends back.



and I managed to do yet another scrap page.... at this rate (1 every 6 weeks) I should work through my photos by about, uh, 2025. This one is the monthly scrap challange over at Scrapsidaisy....I found it a bit hard as there were lots of flowers and i'm not known for florally LO's.



My life seems to be getting back on track and more organised so I should see you again soon.

PS: saying that our new boss starts on Tue?!!?

Six weeks!!!


How did that happen, we've had a bit going on since my last post so in summary: (going from now to then)

It's been all about netball - with gala days and training sessions with the Swifts..









The above pic is of the schools mixed team...... soooo much fun watching the boys playing netball, they're all arms and speed, it frustrated Regan no end that they weren't playing like the girls..

And a little about hockey...




Regan had a birthday... apparently being 11 she is now a tween. No party but some friends over....







Regan went to Layla's PJ party at the Bowling Alley and came home looking gorgeous...



We repainted our bedroom...
From this



To this....



I had a birthday -



photo thanks to Aaron....




Mum and Dad were here for the whole school holidays... it was great to have them here to look after the kids but I didn't get much time off work so couldn't spend as much time with them as I would of liked.












We all spent the first weekend of the holidays camping at Point Plumer

























And I did one... yes only one scrapbook page.



Thanks for sticking around to the end
Leah
