Catch up

Last Saturday was my monthly scrapping day and I got a few of our holiday photos done
Coromandel Town

Waiau Water Park - colour is not that great though

A kauri grove near Coromandel Town - we all stood around it and our fingers barely touched each others


Waitangi
Kawa Kawa Train - it goes down the middle of SH1!


I didn't do my P12 l/o for February because I didn't have any photos but I got some today so will have to do February one, one weekend or next month.

I have a group of 12 ladies and we have bought into the BasicGrey page kit classes for the year. Each month we will get a class pack with sufficient (and more) and then at the end of the year we each get an exclusive BG 3-Ring album. I have seen the completed l/os for March and April and I am really looking forward to seeing them IRL. However, I think the May and June ones will be fantastic because they are designed by Kelly Goree and Nic Howard. I hope the packs arrive late this week because I have a small foor operation on 8th March and I have two days sick leave.
And a few of you may know that I have started with WW again (at home though). I got on the scale when we came home from aour holiday and along with seeing some of the photos of myself I was jolted into realising that I had to do something. So six weeks and 7.1kgs down :-)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Yes, I know I'm 24 hours late! Anyway, we don't do Valentine's Day because I'd rather not have flowers that have gone up in price by 500% for one day. Nicer to be nice to each other on other days during the year. However, we did decide to invite our "god-family" (is that what you call your god-children and their parents?) to a yummy afternoon tea. I found a red table cloth and Ross cut out some red and pink hearts. We all wore red or pink and the food was all heart shaped.


The table set for afternoon tea
Tuna Puffs

A delicious Black Forest cake

Nigella's chocolate biscuits

Sparkling Savignon Blanc with edible hibiscus flowers in them


We had a lovely afternoon!

It's school

...... not a prison sentence! And they do actually like school
