Day one - your favourite song.

At the moment, my favourite song is by a band Cooper and I saw on Wednesday night.

This is Ignorance by Paramore:

30 day meme.

Attempting a 30 day meme.

I’ve just started following Nat's Nattering's, and she has posted a 30 day meme that tweaked my interest – I actually think I might be able to do this one. So, for the next 30 days I should be able to blog the following:

Day 1 – your favorite song
Day 2 – your favorite movie
Day 3 – your favorite television program
Day 4 – your favorite book
Day 5 – your favorite quote
Day 6 – 20 of my favorite things
Day 7 – a photo that makes you happy
Day 8 – a photo that makes you angry/sad
Day 9 – a photo you took
Day 10 – a photo taken over 10 years ago of you
Day 11 – a photo of you recently
Day 12 – something you are OCD about
Day 13 – a fictional book
Day 14 – a non-fictional book
Day 15 – your dream house
Day 16 – a song that makes you cry (or nearly)
Day 17 – an art piece (drawing, sculpture, painting, etc)
Day 18 – your wedding/future wedding/past wedding
Day 19 – a talent of yours
Day 20 – a hobby of yours
Day 21 – a recipe
Day 22 – a website
Day 23 – a youtube video
Day 24 – where I live
Day 25 – your day, in great detail
Day 26 – your week, in great detail
Day 27 – my worst habit
Day 28 – what’s in my handbag/purse
Day 29 – hopes,dreams, plans for the next 365 days
Day 30 – a dream for the future beyond the next year

Now, who’s going to join me with this one?? Add a comment below and I’ll follow your 30 day meme journey.

The adventures of Flat Stanley.

Flat stanley (www.flatstanley.com) is a school project Cooper came home from school with. Flat Stanley is to go where we go over the school holidays, and his adventures documented.

So far, FS has been on the train to the city, been snapped with the caramello koala, had KFC for lunch, and taken a specky at an AFL workshop.

PHOTOS!!

A new school year.

So Cooper started grade 2 this year, Darcy starts prep, and Mia is in 3YO kinder.

It's full steam ahead in the growing up department.

Darcy was so excited to be starting. She yelled at me for coming into her class on her first day. She was so ready for school though, and will do well.

Me, I was fine. Knowing she was ready helped. I waved her off, and went on my way.

Mia, well I hate leaving her. She's my baby, always will be. When she starts school I'll be an emotional mess, as I'm sure she will be. We're extremely close.

Piccies!!

Wow, it's been a while...

Because I don't frequent EB as much as I used to, I forget this is here.

So much has been happening. Children are growing. Mia will be 3 soon, and I'm struggling. Every time my child has turned 3, I've either been pregnant or had a newborn. This time, nothing. No babes.

A few piccies...









Will do a proper update in a minute. Need to finish putting songs on Coop's MP3 for Xmas before he comes out and busts me...

Aww, so classy.



Skirt up around her armpits, boots with the fur (with the fuuuurrr).

She's all class.

Cheerio Kevin...

My community today remembered our own Jamie Durie, the inspiartional gardner,Mr Kevin Heinze.



Kevin died of a heart attack last week, aged 81. He is best known for hosting the ABC’s gardening show [i]Sow What[/i] from 1967 to 1988.

There were over 500 people at his service today in Kilsyth, and the Primary school where Cooper goes and the Pre-school where Darcy goes were allowed to leave early to remember him as he went past on his way to his final resting place.



The 100's of children clapped and cheered as he passed, and said thankyou to him for all he's done for our community, the fire engines were out in the driveway, and the volunteers saluting. We then went up to his property, where he donated a huge slice of his land to [i]The People's Garden[/i], which is a park anyone can go to for respite, and we said goodbye.




Cheerio Kevin, thanks for all you've done for our little community. You will be greatly missed.
