Oh dear

Last week the hubby bought Wii Monopoly.  We have been playing it all weekend and just love it!

What a great game and so tidy and easy compared to the board game and no cheating either LOL.  I hadnt played it in years.

So while we were in the loungeroom the kids were outside playing... and i had left some paint out from when DD was doing craft earlier.... and this is what i found when i went outside...

and

DD had lovingly painted her brother's face.  All i could do was throw them both in the bath and let the water turn green!

6 years

Today the hubby and i are celebrating 6 years of marriage.
He forgot.
But thats ok LOL i nearly did too but managed in time to buy him a small gift (best of Poison CD).  We have the kids today, as any babysitters were all busy so we decided to just hang at home and its been great.  I have loved the cooler day too and the rain, we certainly needed it after the dust storm a couple of weeks ago.
I must be getting old(er)... when it rains now i think how great it is for the garden!

Here is a photo of me on my hens night...

Busy Weekend

We had a very busy weekend... a visit to my Mum and Dad in the morning, followed by a 2nd birthday party... followed by a bbq at a friends house.
Then on Sunday we did some housework, swept up some more red dust outside (including some of the sneaky stuff that got inside) and then we had some friends over to our house for dinner (a BBQ).
My daughter loves their dog, Ned.  He is a toy poodle and here is a photo of her after she had taken him in her room and dressed him up.
I used to dress my dogs up when i was little too, so that was really cute to see.  Poor Ned, he puts up with a lot!

Dust storm

Most of NSW and now part of QLD is being hit by a massive dust storm which has blown over all the way from the Northern Territory.
I woke up this morning to this:

It was a bit spooky... it was like a Stephen King novel come to life LOL

Here are some more i took this morning:

 

This is from the news, taken at the North Sydney pools... what a gorgeous shot:

The news says this is a once in a lifetime event.  They weren't wrong!!!!

Who are you???

OK
Im dead curious who is reading my blog.
From my clustrmap (above) i can see red dots from all over the USA, England, Ireland and i think Japan?  And of course a few in my homeland.
I hope of course to get lots more blogging friends over the next few months but if you have popped in here for a look please say hello!
Leave a comment, tell me who are you.. where you are from.
I dont bite.
I promise :-)

Busy Weekend Ahead

Tonight i am going out with some girls from my high school for dinner, which is always lovely to do and catch up.    Sometimes it feels like i only just left school and other times it feels like a lifetime ago!

This was taken at the last dinner with my good mate Renee.

On Sunday we have two kids parties to go to, a 3yr old girl and a 4yr old boy!  My kids are gonna be tired at the end of the day.  I must remember to dose them up on liquid multi-vitamins in the morning LOL.

Our new work blog

I spent nearly all day yesterday setting up the new blog for our business.  Its in Wordpress and its a lot more complicated then blogger!!!  Blogger is really easy to use and i love that, but i guess Wordpress is a lot more involved.

My husband is a builder and we started our business 'Rangehood Ducting Specialists' about 6 years ago now.  It was an opportunity in the market for this kind of building work, and also something i could work on at home and be a stay at home mum for my kids.

So if your interested, here is the blog: Our work blog

I havent finished it yet, but you get the idea!
