Easter LONG Weekend!!

What a busy 4 days we have had! I have had a fantastic easter and have been able to catch up with a fair few family and friends.

Friday:
Ater the Good Friday service we met up with some of my scrapping friends and their families. Ali, Glen and Luke, Jo, David, Harry and Liam, Ang and Noel, Helen, husband (sorry, I have totally recked my brain but I cannot remember - I have Greg stuck in my head but I am sure that is not right), Wade and Jennae and Gemma at the parklands down at the Fitzroy river. It was very relaxing watching the kids running around and playing on all of the very, very cool play equipment. Eventually curiosity got the better of me! No photo's to prove it - Jo does have the proof however. It was lots of fun. We had a fantastic BBQ lunch and then it was time for the girls to head back to the shop to get some scrapping done. We had a pretty productive night. Here are a couple of the pages I managed to complete.


Ali had taken some photo's of Nathan and I while we were handing out at the park and she scrapped these at the shop on Friday night. Here is the link to her layout. ttp://www.embellished.com.au/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=10697 It is very cool I have never been the subject of someone else's scrapping before!

Saturday:
After dropping my friend, Bek at the airport for her week in Brisbane Nathan and I headed out to get some job done around the place. Really exciting stuff like going to Bunnings and BCF I left up to Nathan and I headed to Shopping Fair to help choose a present for our friend Jessica's 21st party with my mum, gran and sister. We ended up getting some funky Kelly Lane stuff. In the afternoon the we managed to get the boat into the river for the first time since Australia Day as there has been so much rain etc that it hasn't happeded for a while. I have been lucky enough to get to listen to Nathan complaining about how stiff and sore he is ever since:) That night it was off to Jessica's party. I made her a card which I forgot to take photo's of so you will just have to believe me. The party was good fun! Jess has just got her first car and so I think it will be very well decked out from now on. I think judging from the amount of pink that she won't have to worry about her dad trying to drive it!

Sunday:
We headed out to the farm to catch up with Nathan's brothers and our sister-in-law and 2 nieces (Nicola and Heidi - my main scrapping material) We had a fun time playing with Nicola and it was great to see how much more Heidi is able to support herself and how much she is already moving. I have a feeling she will be ready to crawl very soon. As they have just started picking we also went out into the paddocks for a while and Nathan and I got into the module builder and mucked around. I have a few photo's of us.




Monday:
This morning after a bit more time on the farm we headed home for lunch with my family. It was great fun and was good to catch up with my extended family. That is all for now. I will leave you with my "In my skin" challenge layout for this week. It was on hair. Hope you had a great weekend drop me a line and let me know what you were up to.
