Savvy CC Challenges

Don't forget, you've still got one whole day to submit your challenge layouts to the Savvy Gallery from last weekend's Scrapbook Savvy cybercrop!!! I have done a couple of the challenges, the first one being Kerryn's Challenge for which we had to use song lyrics from a song before 1990. This was perfect of a story I've been wanting to scrap about Cooper:-




And then this one is Sara's challenge, we had to use the word 'Remember' and at least three colours. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this photo of me & hubby, we were going to our friends Anth & Linda's wedding, I was THIN and felt fab...those were the days....*sigh*...




My week was going ok until today, had an argument with someone I love and feel crappy about it all, so hard to please everyone all the time. :(

I lost 0.8kgs at Weight Watchers yesterday which surprised me, looks like all that exercising is paying off, I was at it again this morning with a 'lift' session which is kinda like Pump. I went to one of the sessions where you can take your kids, and it was great! They played with the other kids the whole time and the hour flew, will have to do that more often, I think.

Don't forget to leave me some love on my '300 Posts' post to be in the running for that We're Savvy kit for December....I PROMISE I will have a sneak for you tomorrow. :)

My best friend's baby boy!

I've been in trouble for not updating the blog this week, and also for not putting up some photos here of the new baby in my life.

My best friend Alicia had a baby boy on Tuesday morning, Oliver Benjamin. He weighed 2.7kgs and was 45cm long. I was lucky enough to meet him on the day he was born, he's just so tiny and gorgeous and precious and, and, and...oh, he's just amazing!



I'm just so happy for Ben, Alicia & Charlotte....and can't wait for more cuddles!!

Some scrapping...mmmm, what have I got to show you, let me see....

This is a photo of my old boss Michael, who passed away last year. I've been putting off doing this layout as it was a hard one for me, but its done now. I still miss him. :(


And baby Bronte having a good old chuckle at her big brother Cooper, pretty crappy photos but a precious moment to have captured.


Don't forget this weekend is the November 'Remember' Cybercrop over at Scrapbook Savvy! Challenges will be launched from 6pm Friday night and are open for nearly a week. Lots of time to play along, with lots of prizes and store credit up for grabs.

Photobucket

Hope to see you there!!

A great week has been and gone here, I've trained each day with Savvy Health & Fitness and am feeling much better about things, its amazing what a bit of exercise and healthy eating can do to one's self esteem. I lost 0.9kgs my first week back at Weight Watchers, I thought it would've been more but I really shouldn't complain!! Apart from that the usual going ons, crop days, swimming lessons, teething babies...its all happening! Will be nice to hand the girls over to my mum tonight and have a relaxing night with the girls at the Savvy Crop, I can't wait! We still have two free spots for anyone local that feels like joining us. :)

I'll be back soon with some sneak peeks for the upcoming December kits...they're amazing!! :)

Weekend Layouts

Well I've kinda sorta been a little bit productive this weekend, doing three layouts at the Scrapbooking Delights crop on Friday night and another last night with my friend Juz here scrapping with me! Gotta be happy with that eh, any page done is one less to do... ;)

This one is Sketch #5 over at 52 Sketches 52 Weeks, loving all their old sketches and have printed them ALL to do at some stage!


And another, Sketch #2 using a glimmer mist splatter that I am just in love with!


Then this one is a just because about my beautiful friend Marijana. Mwah!


And the monthly kit challenge at Scrapbooking Delights, me and my Em, using one of my mum's gorgeous handmade flowers that will soon be available for purchase in the Scrapbook Savvy store, and are already available for local girls.



I have decided this week that we're going on holidays in January, after tossing it around for awhile I've just bit the bullet and started looking. DH had a bright idea that we could just stay at home and relax....but he seems to forget that my work is at home, and if I'm here then I'll be working! So we need to get away, and seeing as he has a month off over xmas and Cooper starts school in February...its the perfect opportunity and we'd be mad to not take advantage of that. The Gold Coast is looking really good to me, just waiting for a few email replies on accommodation. I can't wait! :)

I have just told my friend Linda who is due on 9th Jan that she better go early, I don't want to miss out on meeting her new bub on the day he or she is born! ;)

Thats it from me, am gathering tax papers so we can do a tax return and hopefully be able to PAY for a holiday! Thats always the bad part, eh...

Bye for now,
Sar
