Katie and her mini album

What a busy time it has been in amongst work and all of our other commitments Katie recieved a letter from the Girl Guides head office with her new pen pals name and address. So we have already written to Grace and now she is going to put together a mini album full of things that she has been doing and it will also count for another part of her girl guide badges so she is having a great time learning about our favourite subject scrapbooking... I don't know if we are teaching her something new or giving her a bit of grief but she seems to be enjoying it.
She has also finished her NSW Premier Reading Challenge which has given her the book badge for Girl Guides - yep another one to sew on her sash I must admit it is getting full - next time I will take a photo of that one and post it for you all to see....



The start of her mini album. Using the brayer.....


Picking up the crop-a-dile.....


and sanding those edges for a shabby chic look...next we will have to get our photos in... might get in and do that one tonight if we have time.....



and lucky last photo is of Katie playing her first hockey game for the season. She played last year and towards the end was starting to get the hang of it but this season she went in and gave it a really good go. By the second half she was a little tired and said that she had had enough but went back out and gave it her best... SO PROUD. Her team actually won their match.


Johno had his first soccer match yesterday as well and they also won their game which was great. Shall have photos next week as I am off for a few days so will get alot more photos sorted out.
Here to the next post which will have some scrapbooking would you believe.....
Love jen xoxoxo
