February 8th

Hi all, just a reminder that Feb 8th is the next Sunday "craft" afternoon.

We are looking forward to seeing you all there, the more the merrier. Don't forget if you have any suggestions or ideas for "themes" etc., please let us know, we have a few up our sleeves for the coming months, but ideas would be good. Petrina and Cassie are organising a retreat at Chaverim in early April, and will give information on the 8th. We have been to every retreat and can highly recommend them, they are great, very relaxing and lots of scrapping, eating, drinking, and all that a women wants in a weekend away (except Sean Connery of course.......) but who needs him when we have scrapping!!!

Sunday 11 January 2009

Well, we had a lovely afternoon, scrapping and chatting. Thank you ladies for coming along hopefully you all enjoyed the afternoon, I certainly did.

Sorry that Dilys wasn't there, but as always, family comes first, and hopefully all went well with Bob, and you were missed by all.

Firstly, a few thanks are in order - again thanks to Lorelle for the donation of the sewing machine, it was certainly put to work on Sunday and worked a treat, thanks to Katie and Kerry, for popping in to say hi, and to Petrina for the blog header.

Thanks also to Sandra for helping me set up and also to all the ladies that helped me pack up and stow everything away for me, it was certainly appreciated.

Now ShowTime, hopefully the photos I took turned out okay, Helen, I didn't get one of your afternoon's work, will have to rectify that next time.

A small bundle of joy had us all going ga ga, Danielle came with baby Zacharry, everybody had lots of cuddles, lovely to see them looking to happy and well.

Danielle receiving her special album that Lorelle made her for baby, good idea Lorelle

Kylie's lovely cuddles page

Sandra's page of her friend's engagement party

Lovely page from Shandelle with some scary dinosaurs, love the BG archaic papers

Donna's work in progress, good way to use lots of photos, obviously somebody is a bit of a biker boy at heart

Shana's daughter, having fun

Shana being industrious in finishing two pages in one afternoon

Lovely fishing page from Bev, can't see any fish though (nor beer!)

Last is one of my beautful grandchildren, trying so hard to look innocent.

Lovely pages ladies, we all had a busy afternoon, I don't think the photos do them justice, but practice makes perfect.

See you on 8th February,
By for now,

Linda

Happy New Year and Congratulations

Well, 2009 is here and a Happy New Year to everybody.
Also, big congratulations to Danielle and Craig on the birth of their baby boy, Zacharry Craig - 7lb 1oz - who arrived on the 29th December 2008. Well done to you both, and good to hear all is going well. Maybe Danielle might pop in on the 11th to show off the new edition to their family.
See you on the 11th,
Bye, Linda and Dilys.
