Got to love Sunday's

they can be the most boring days around i think sometimes lol

And for us it was!! We did NOTHING! Well thats not the whole truth lol. I went to a girlfriends place for 2hrs as i was not impressed with the fact that my other half was going out to yet ANOTHER bbq. He attended one friday and another one saturday..........

As soon as i came home though he was gone.....

Not not much else to report home about at all.

I did get the camera out today for a little play (its just a fuji S5600) as i was driving down the road to get some chocolate and noticed how lovely the moon looked in the setting sun.

Unfortunatly by the time i got home and figured out what sort of settings i needed to get a good shot, it was quit dark, but we managed to pull off some good shots.

A distance one


And a close up, which i turned black and white, added a border and sharpened a bit in PS


Which was then turned into a LO

Quite time

Was a very quite day for this family of 6. Still recovering from sunburn, poor tamara, copped it bad, blistering :( :(

So the day was spent, getting unforms ready for school and brushing up on reading andn writing.

I managed to get a LO done as well (started it this morning and finished it about 30mins ago)

Australia Day 2007

Wishing everyone A Happy Australia Day and hope you had a wonderful true blue day ;)

This family spent the morning at home and then strolled down to gosford waterfront, to register Daniel for his 4Th year with Gosfort/Kariong Storm Football club and a wonder around at all the tents and entertainment they had down there.

Joshua and Tamara asked to be taken on the tea cup ride, and me being the type of person who doesn't do rides lol, stayed away and poor dad was the one to deal with it. Daniel also informed us of the fact that he "does not do rides well either" lol. So i at least had some good company waiting for them.

Ride started and all thought it was fantastic!!!! Cries of hey mum, this is fun, faster faster by Joshua soon turned to can i get off and a look of "if I don't i am going to vomit" LOL. I shouldn't have laughed but his face was a classic. Unfortunately i didn't take my camera with me, so sorry no shots :( Mara asked for more LOL.

Daniel then had a go at the clown ball thing (what are they called?) and won himself a witch that pops out of a keg lol.

For lunch the kids were treated a Pluto pup, drink and some hot chips and after 2hrs of wondering around it was time to head home.

Unfortunately for 5 out of 6 of us, we got sun burnt (mum wasn't expecting to be out that long and hadn't slathered the kids in suncream, or herself :( ) and we are now paying for her stupidity, mostly Joshua and Byron though :( :(


I feel sick to the stomach at how burnt the are :(

No rest for the wicked

What a day, definatly a busy one!!

The day stared off just great, was suppose to be out at mums by 9am, BUT we all slept in till 8.40am, so it started off late. Eventually arriving at 10am, better late than never ;). Kids had a great time playing with their game table (can play pool, soccer, table tennis, chess, bakgammon, air hockey and other things lol). It was nan and pops xmas present to them and we have yet to bring it home (not easy to fit in a tiny nissan pulsar with a car load).

Even byron was getting in on the act.


We then had to leave nan and pops, which no one was to happy about :( to go and pick up dad!!! Once that was done, next stop was THE UNIFORM SHOP for daniel and tamara's uniform this year. Unfortunatly for robbie, we walked out of this shop $184 poorer. Though the kids are now just about decked out for the year. Following this, we all went shopping, that is a trip and a half in itself.

I had then had enough of the kids and decided that it was time to drop them and at home and hit the butchers and the fruit shop on her own!! which i throughly enjoyed doing LOL.

finally once that was all done, she could sit and have time to herself before starting dinner.

With such a big day happening, come 8.30, all 4 kids went to bed happily and quietly with only 1 speaking too and are now in noody land and it is soon time for this little muppet to hit the hay as well.

But last and not least, the LO of the day, though please excuse the use of templates, ive lost most of my creativity at the moment ;)

Where to start??

I have no idea, so lets just start with today.

Unfortunatly for this family today isnt exactly the nicest day or most exciting of days, it is raining but humid so it is a day inside and finding things to amuse ourselves with.

We started the day with showers, all of the kids scream when it comes to showers, all but BYRON. He loves it





Then we played and decided this afternoon we will now colour in....


excuse the bones sticking out there.


this kept them quite for oh maybe 30mins.... and we are now back to saying we are hungry bored and looking to pick a fight lol

I also managed to whip this up last night
