Scrapping, baking, new life, and belly

A few things to show, not overly happy with most of my scrapping at the moment, all looking a little blah to me. I did manage to play around at the Savvy crop :)

2gether 4eva? - This was for Sar's Blind Scrap challenge, added a little extra and twiddled with it a bit.  Char with Teddy again. She really really loves him.

2009 Faves - Kerryns' Challenge needed atleast 9 photos' of this years Layouts. a few of my favourite layouts from the year. Love how they are all different styles and different sizes too

Daydream Believer - Felicity's first class (which was fabulous) over at Bon's

From 3-14 Months - Another from the Savvy Crop, this is Kayla's Challenge, needed to do a photo a month with jounalling.  How much has the little man grown and changed over tthese past 12 months. He is such a little boy now

See this mag?????
Well inside there is this - my first US Creating Keepsakes publication :)

This is what Dea looks like when he helps me bake, and yep HAS to sit on the counter too. so far this Christmas Season we have made - gingerbread, shortbread, Bailey's rocky road fudge, Choc Cherry Fudge, apricot balls, Reindeer Cupcakes, ummmm and I can't think of the rest.

Beauty in the birth of calves. I'm still yet to witness a birth, kids have seen about 3 so far, but I did manage to get these 'fresh' pics. So incredible, within 15 minutes the calf was standing and sucking and today I've seen it running around with the other calves. Life is amazing.

Kids loved watching the new calf :)




Last but not least, my 30 week belly, I'm still wondering where bub could be and if he/she is doing ok. Hopefully I'll have a lovely sized bubba :)

I'm hoping to get a little creative over the weekend going to have a go at the crop at Bon's......

Have a fabulous weekend
