bambini che ridono

This is just the cutest thing ever!

And another thing....

For anyone else with a daughter obsessed with High School Musical and Zac Ephron (AKA Troy), you will fully appreciate the extreme excitement and utter gushiness my daughter displayed this afternoon upon purchasing this T-shirt. There were squeals and sighs, exclamations and lots of jigging about - in the middle of Target no less. Her life is complete she tells me. If only......

Catching up.....again!

Yes, yes, yes....it's been a while. Life has stepped up into the crazy category and I have also had a nice dose of bronchitis. Eldest DS is at school camp, smallest DS has started kindy and the 2 in between are busy as usual. Things are evening out again so I am finally posting (with a little email prompt from my sister ;) First up is last week's 'This Is' Meme post...
This is a (blurry) photo of me with my favourite accessory. For me this was easy as my camera is easily my fave accessory. It is a Canon 400D and I love it. My other fave accessories in this pic would be my rings....quite appropriately as it was my 13th wedding anniversary on Monday. Also note my new, short hair-do! I had all my hair chopped off last week and feel ever so liberated. My least fave accessory in this photo would be the lines near my squinty eye. What's that about?!
This layout is one for Little Scrapbook Shop featuring the KI Memories Pop Culture range. Lovely bright and funky things. Check them out here.

This is...

What makes me Laugh out Loud. The Youtube clip in the post below is a guaranteed giggle for me every time I watch it. I dare you to watch it without cracking a smile. 10 points for every song you have danced to in your lifetime...even if it was in your head ;)

Evolution of Dance

I love this clip. Makes me LOL every time.

Fat Quarter Challenge

As part of a sewing challenge over at Essential baby, I have made a little Nintendo DS Lite carry case for Mikaela. It is made from just one Fat Quarter of quilting fabric as per the challenge instructions. (For the materially challenged, a fat quarter is a quilting term for a piece of fabric measuring approx 1/4 of a metre) I had her choose the fat quarter she wanted to use and she decided on this Sundae fabric. Absolutely nothing to do with her DS, just because it was cute :)

This is....

Sunday Lunch.

Following along with the weekly Meme from Three Buttons . Sunday lunch is usually a pretty casual affair here as we rarely finish church until 12:30 or so. Seeing as church is also our work, we are always home fairly late. Today was ham, cheese and salad panini's toasted in our sandwich grill. We sometimes go to a friend's place for lunch, go for a Sunday drive and eat out or visit family. We rarely have a formal Sunday lunch as such but are almost always together as a family breaking bread... panini in today's case.

Nothing crafty happening much this week. I completed a scrap layout last night but haven't photographed it yet. I did receive these little beauties in the post during the week ready to be turned into quilty things. I already have a few stacks of those 'Look and Learn' charm squares but wanted some more to make a larger quilt. I think that might be next on my list.
