Anyone interested


In joining in a vintage sheet FQ swap?

You then send me as many FQ's (18" x 22") cut from vintage sheets, pillowcases etc as you like along with a self addressed prepaid satchel (for those in Aus(3kg or 500g depending on how many you send). Anyone outside of Aus who would like to take part please email me so we can work out what the return postage will be)You will need to post them to me by the 20th November and I will get them to you by December 1st. I will send and assortment of FQ's (as many as you sent) back to you!

The Royal Show.

So we went. We did it. I roped my gorgeous sister into coming with us. It was supposed to rain but held off and was just really cold instead.
I am always amazed at the cost of everything. It's insane! I think I will be holding off on going back until the boys are old enough to ask.


We went on the ferris wheel. (Raife whinged the whole time. Don't think he likes heights, mmm?)




The bigger boys went on the elephants and the teacups.




We also popped into the animal farm but there was way too many schoolkids and none of my 3 wanted to touch the animals. Strange kids :P

It was fun! Thanks Jen for the tickets!!

I know...

I'm hopeless at this. You see, I let my sister borrow my camera and alright. I'm just slack, ok :P


Anyway, til I get it back, here are some of our gorgeous wedding pics that I finally have in my hot little hands. Now to choose a favourite...
The following 4 photos are from my gorgeous friend Mel. The rest are from my stunning friend Alinta.




Our stunning cake was made by an equally amazing friend Leoni, she was also roped into making the toppers and making fudge and other sweets for the lolly bar.
