Where do you go to my lovely? When you’re alone in your head.You had wandered off somewhere even though you stood before me. I often wonder where you go off to quietly inside your head.

Okay so my youngest is the full on, try anything once daredevil in our family! Why else would a 4 year old climb nearly 6 feet in the air?
I have to admit that she did very well, and at least had the common sense to call out when she realised she was stuck! Thankfully I was close by and could hear her quiet little cry for help!
And no, I did NOT just leave her hanging there while I grabbed the camera, I got her big sister to hold her up for a couple of seconds while I grabbed these shots!

Well she used to be anyway!
Now she is more like health hazard brown! But you love her none the less! She is starting to seriously fall apart, but she is obviously well loved!
Her hands are so worn and grimy now its a wonder you haven’t caught some serious illness from her!
We let you choose a sister dolly for your 3rd birthday, in the hopes that pink wouldn’t get quite so much loving attention!
But it wasn’t till you turned four that sister dolly started geting some loving. Pink is still around but she is in hiding for a while.

My all time favourite colour!

Oh my goodness!

Was I in for a surprise when I went blog hopping this morning!Over at "the Hub" ScrapArtist's blog was this wee gem! http://scrapartist.typepad.com/the_hub/2007/04/featured_sunday.html

Yep I got another layout picked as Featured (Friday) Sunday. What a thrill, and now both girls have had their smiley faces appear there.

I took the photo of the D girl and her bestest little friend Elise while they were clowning round in their fairy/dance outfits the other day. They are very lovingly known as the twins (or even the conjoined twins!) Born to different parents hasn't meant that they aren't always together! Boy can these two get into mischief! But we love them anyway!

Twin girls born a few months apart to differnt parents. You two are always together, giggling and playing, chattering and quite often getting into all kinds of mischief. But always together!

Lisa's such a sweetie! Wanna find out why?

go visit this thread on her blog, but you gotta be quick!

And if you miss out well I am sure they will appear in a store near you very soon!

How flippin' cool is this???

Sorry I hoped to get this posted earlier

but I have had a day and a half already. We are currently painting our kitchen, uhh what a job that is!

And have a camera club meeting to attend tonight, and that in itself is going to be interesting since I have a couple of images in, in classes that I struggle with!

So the point of this post is to tell you who won my random drawing right?

Well since its been such a day and a half and since you all left such lovely comments regarding my templates, and the teamplates I do in association with the delightful Dawn Moore, I have decided to ...




















Yeah okay I am being a meanie!

anyway what I decided on is that you will all win!

Here are the links to all of my templates and teamplates.
Please be fair and DO NOT HOTLINK!

Grab these now, I will not leave them active forever, wouldn't be able to share other stuff then would I?

Edited to add links no longer active.

Comments and links to pages created using these templates/teamplates always welcomed.
