Well another week has gone by, and have come to the conclusion it is nearly Xmas. Xmas I hear you say, well it is nearly there, next week is September and really it is not that far away. So to make you all sick I have started my Xmas shopping list, and I am slowly getting some things, I could honestly say I am half way there, not even started on Jade who was reading my list wondering where her name was - as if I was going to write her name on the list and what we were getting her!!!!

Jade is in the school musical this week, she has one of the major parts - well minor major, so that is cool. They did a matine yesterday afternoon and an evening show last night which I went to and another evening show tonight which Ralf has gone to. She is very proud.

Two weekends of soccer to go, being such a good mother I can honestly say I am over it and looking forward to not having to go anyway.

Ralf has a golf tournament this weekend on Sunday, I have told him he is to win me a car - fingers crossed :-)

Anyway must away for a spa

another great 10d's weekend

Well us girl's had another great weekend away together. I think we have finally found the right balance of who brings what, and eating out for every meal - how could it have taken so long to come to the thought of eating out every night???

First layout is of Ralf and his brother, Chrissie and I had them put on the 3d's glasses from the movie theatre and act like geeks - they did it so naturally!!
Next one is of Jade (did I really need to state the obvious) just sitting outside on the deck, another day of me annoying her with the camera - my girl is no longer a wee girl, she is growing up so quick!
We Luke is just so cute! We put him into Jade's beanbag for this photo - god he is cute! So cute!!!!
Ralf is such a funny man! I told him I should have a photo of him with a sweat band on! Funny man said yes and let me take the photo!!! Oliva Newton John - or Olivia Newton Ralf :-)
This one speaks for itself.
A nice layout, a bit over due in doing it, the photos are from when Mum had all the kids staying together - i don't know how she did it!!!
We told Jade that as I was Luke's fairy god mother and Mel was hers, then obviously her and Luke would have to be fairy god cousins!!
Jade's birthday party
A day we were babysitting Lucy, the neighbours dog, Ralf and her get on so well together, this photo just cracks me up!
Back to work for another week, nothing exciting happening I think, work work and work. Then this weekend just soccer, Ralf is playing a little poker on Friday night.

Facebook

I have decided that facebook is interferring with my blog! I happily put a little comment here and there on facebook as it is so quick, same with uploading a photo - nice a quick. BUT.... I do not right big stories like here, and I don't say all of what I am thinking on there as it is not like it is your real friends that are reading it. Well some are, but then there are all the people you have clicked as "friends" when they are no more than someone you know, for whatever reasons.

So, yes I love facebook, but it is not the same as my blog :-)

We had Mel, Jase and Luke come to stay last weekend which was fantastic. I wish oh wish that they lived closer!!! Luke is such a cute wee baby, and I kid you not I do not think I really ever heard him cry - he talks!!!!
But how could he not with his mother being Mel!! Jade just loved him, funny thing happened. We told her that Luke was going to sleep in her room, she thought this was a great idea, until the morning, she moaned she did not get much sleep, as he talked and talked and wiggled too much!!! Funny!!
On the Sunday we were looking after Lucy while the neighbours were away. Funny Ralf has gone from not being a dog person to just loving Lucy. Look at the joy on their faces, Lucy loves him too!! Don't think it will take too much to convince him to get a dog now - well after Oscar has passed we decided.
We have also recevied our bark, spent the week moving it all into the garden, thought we had enough, but no, we will need to get another 4 cubic metres I reckon, starting to look good though.


Last picture ever of Ralf with long hair, he has moaned his hair would no longer fit under his cap for golf, so it had to go. I cut it tonight, but managed to convince him to leave a mullet!!! Funny, will see how long that lasts, did not know I had such great skills with hair cutting, a new career path for me - well for bogan haircutting anyway!!!

Speaking of all things bogan - we have ACDC tickets - yay!!!!

Time for this girl to go, not sure what I am going to go and do, but time to be off the computer.
