where has the time gone????

Well I honestly can say I don't know where the time has gone the kids are back to school today and things are back on a roll....I think....I've enrolled myself into Tafe yesterday and start on the 8th so that is all exciting there is lots happening in the next couple of weeks so there will be lots of photos and hopefully lots of craft going on....

As most of you know last year I took a mini photo class which lasted for about a month and a half so alot of my photos that I have scrapped have come from those classes....enjoy....











Will be back soon with some more scrapbooking and will update my photo a day soon.....have a great day lots of hugs and love jen xoxoxoxo

Busy! Busy! Busy!

Well Im quickly sitting here whilst there is peace and quite yep the darling hubby and son have gone off fishing for the weekend and Katie has gone to Nanny's at Inverell for a sleepover while I have to go to work! They left this morning at 5.30am and I have already got the housework done so I'm cheering!!!!

The last few days have been a bit full on with work commitments but I have managed to squeeze in a few trips over town to see what I can find and even though my day photo is a photo of the post office I love the little clouds surrounding it and look at how clean and crisp that sky looks.....lovely.....



OK if your not a country music bumkin you probably have no idea on who the next fellow is but it is James Blundell and how did I get this photo I hear you ask well I just flucked it to be honest with you he was at the Bluey bus thing - Telstra and they had various artists appearing on certain days and I happened to be there....quite a good photo I think.....



Ok now this has nothing to do with country music but is a lot of fun!!!! The kids went to vacation care and on Wednesday it was hippie day so off I went to find some costumes and no they didn't come out of our wardrobes but they had a brilliant time this day and had soooo much fun.....









On Thursday I got to babysit my little niece willow and had to pick her up quite early so she had a bath before we went over town....isn't she cute....



Friday.....oh what a busy day anyone who knows me knows that Fridays are always a busy full on day and today was no different.... we went to the leuamemia walk for life this morning as my dear girlfriends daughter was diagnosed with it last year at the age of three....she is still going through treatment but loves Katie Kirk and always wants Katie to come and play....they have a really close special bond....the day was lots of fun and then it was off to work for me after I got to do the 30 minute walk.....



Georgie and Katie.....



The girls with Lucky Bear....



I have heaps more to share but the parade down the street starts at 9am this morning and I so wish to get down there so I shall be back soon.....have a great day oh and before I forget Belinda was home for a few nights and last night the girls had a scrappin' get together unfortunately because of work commitments I couldn't attend so Belinda all my love and hope to catch up soon....hugs and love jen xoxoxxoxo

I'm back and its late....

Yep it has been one of those days where everything just doesn't seem to work out the way you had it all mapped out in your little head but hey that is life.....
I'm nearly back on track with my photo a day and so lets get on with the show......

Day 11 I took the kids over to their favourite past time at the moment feeding the ducks....



Flower mad today......



So in love with these beautiful flowers just had to take a couple of snap shots....



More ducks....



And this is a snippet of what Tamworth starts out looking like and then it gets busy. They are setting up the park for the opening night.....lots of people, lots of noise and lots of good memories for all to have...



Miss Katie had her dear little friend Sarah over today and they played dollies as they always do....oh to be young.....



Down the street.....yep I did brave it today and came across this band who are just awesome.....they played alot of blues and it was soooooo good and lots of fun. Even though it was hot it was great to sit there and hear them play....if anyone from Tamworth is interested in catching a glimpse of these fellows they are just a bit down the road from Hogs breath oh and better tell you they are on the other side.....sooooo worth a look....



And this pic I had to share today it is was a lot of fun to sit and watch this kelpie do so many little tricks and the kids just fell in love with the whole act....he and his pup Molly are just out the front of the Post office - well they were today.....



ok I am off to bed now as I have to get to the gym in the morning at 5.30am so goodnight and sleep tight don't let the bed bugs bite.....see you all soon lots of love and hugs jen xoxoxox

Photo a day update....

As we all know at this time of the year Tamworth gets a little crazy so my plans are to show you some of the things that happen during country music through my photo a day.....but for now lets get back up to date with the whole thing so here we go

On this morning I had the urge to get my new external flash that hubby bought me for Christmas and decided to have a play even though I had heaps of other things to do.... but it seems to take out the shadows which is really cool.....



This was as close as our little Katie was going to let us get to her breakfast....the joys of summer...yum!!! It was the last one in the fridge that day too...she is one spoilt chicken....



Johno hardly ever plays with me and the camera so when he said take a silly photo of me I jumped at the chance who wouldn't??? I so love his hair colour....he doesn't....



Playing around at Bicentanial Park its a beautiful park where there are heaps of things to keep the keen photographer of the family happy...yes you will see many photos taken at this beautiful park....



Well I best go and sort out a few more things so I can update later on or in a while but the kettle is boiled and I have to get to work so I hope to get back and finish up and get up to date with my photo a day challenge by the end of today...have a happy sunfilled day...lots of love jen xoxoxo

Hello there!

Well just before I have to dart off to work I thought that I would up load my last two days worth of photos for the day....

On Monday night I was lucky enough to baby sit my little niece over night and in the morning couldn't resist capturing it on camera.....



Dreaming sweet nothings.....more likely about Dora!!!


Most people who know me well know that I volunteer up at Ronald McDonald house and today was my volunteer shift but there wasn't anyone in the house so I didn't have to go in today but I find this work rewarding.....



Well now I'm off for a shower to get ready to go to work as I have been to the gym this morning at 5.30am so I think I better lol. Have a fun fabulous day and I will catch up with you all again soon.....lots of love and hugs jen xoxoxo
