goodness this post has been sitting waiting for me for some time now

so im just going to explain the photos then start a new post and do a catch up, i can't believe how long its been....cody giving me cuddles after having rough games, such a cuddly little mummies boy he is too cute he looks big and tall in the photo, i love him in these tops i think muscle tops some people call them??? too cute anyway

my miss 10 she is growing up so fast, will definally be scrapbooking this photo for her album

trying to get a nice photo of the kids together do you think they would play ball no, well jacqueline was but not cody he wouldn't sit nicely grr cody

ali edwards does a daily december album you can check out her last years one here with some details on what it is.....so ive taken up this as a challenge for me to do this year, i have done all my pages (thats another whole new post hehe) but this is the cover i made out of an old file box that i had in the cupboard, i think it looks rather cool.....when i started this i had just used stuff i had in my stash didn't buy anything, but i must admit i have bought a few extra cool xmas stuff from trade me that are $1 reserve as a treat for myself, or a early xmas present from my kids hehe

cody kept dropping things into this box and then couldnt' get them out so i tipped the box over for him hehe so cute had to get a photo

I tried and tried and tried to make a train invite for cody but it just wasn't working so bought some invites which i thought had trains on them but its not till we get home (cody carried them in the shop and all the way home) that hes like car car car here i was thinking it was trains all over it hehe - i wanted trains to go with his train cake that im doing for him......never mind

a recent layout of jacqueline, im not into the 12x12 layouts so much now they dont happen so much now, im into of the page stuff and making my own mini albums

Lovely photo of my dad and cody on one of his recent photos, 4 photos later cody finally looks at the camera, whats wrong with that kids surely he knows by now that when the camera is out he looks smiles then i will leave him alone lol......

mini canvases of me and the kids, i was just going to do one of me but then only had semi nice ones of me and the kids so thats what i did and turned them all into this...........
I had this frame from ali that she gave me ages ago and decied to stick the canvases onto that, and its now hanging in the lounge, i really do love how it came together, and all the photos are on foam dots which is such a cool effect
