Fantastic Weekend

Had the best weekend away with Kris, Lou and Jo. The 10D's always have a fantastic time together. We scrapped, we ate, we talked and we slept. What else could you ask for. Kris took some fantastic photos of us, we did a bit of a photoshoot, which I will show you later.

So look I was away from Friday at 8.30am until Sunday at about 5pm, and I only managed to get 6 pages done LOL!!!!!!! What was I doing procrastinating on it for so long!!!!

First one is a nice one of our girl, first picture I took with the new camera.
The next one is of Jade's soccer team this year. The got through to the finals of the knockout competition for their grade, and then they won!!!!! Fantastic!!!
Jade's portrait photo from a couple of years ago, needed to do something with it as it has been replaced on the wall with a new one. The saying is what Jade and I say to each other, so now I will always win as I have put it in writing!!!
Then Kris came up with this crazy idea of doing a page in 15 minutes. We were allowed to select the photo and paper etc that we were going to use, then it was into it, so below is my 15 minute layout. Did I moan about it.... yes I did!!!!
Well then we move onto the next layout which needs no explaining, well maybe it does. Daffodil day came around and it was a fantastic excuse for us at work to dress up. Yellow of course, then guess what Kate said I should borrow her Big Bird outfit!! I drove to work in it, sat in it all morning, through a meeting with a supplier who dropped into visit, and then it was too warm!
Well on, on, Shortland Street is calling ........

I scrapped

Your not going to believe how long it took me to do this layout..... 3 weeks, I know what is that all about, but I started, then I wanted to use my red stamp pad, but Jo had it, so of course it is her fault, threw me, so I then got to procrastinate on it. Got the stamp pad back, but lost the flow, so fluffed and fluffed some more. Then 3 weeks went on and then just what I needed to finish this layout arrived in the post from the states. My friend Mel had been over there, and I had shopped and sent her a parcel. Can you see what I needed..... the stamp of bubbles. Wait till you see it in person, very cool stamp, going to use it a bit more I think!!! The funniest thing about the layout taking 3 weeks is that we are about to go on our 10d's retreat soon and Kris has come up with the idea of doing a 15 minute challenge, now how am I going to do a layout in 15 minutes if it took me 3 weeks! I can sense a wee tantrum coming!!

Busy weekend had. Soccer, went well 5 nil to us - yay!! Then Jade and I did a little shopping. Sunday was father's day, and we took Oscar cat to the pet company in town for a wee shave!!! Getting too matted, so she had a shave, we were expecting a whole body shave, but no they shaved all of her tummy and a couple of bits on her leg, heaps better!

Busy week ahead for me, we are stocktaking at work - boo!
