Hello 2008

WOW and I even remembered by password!!  Its been a while little blog but I did not forget you.   Today is our first quiet day since about Christmas  LOL   The Dutch cousins have returned to Holland and my brother and his Irish family have returned to Ireland (well they are flying at the moment) so it seems very quiet around here at the moment.  Hubby went back to work this week and is taking the train as Stickers is in a million pieces in the garage with new parts and reconditioned parts arriving daily it seems.  Hopefully that will be up and running shortly as I don’t think the public transport system is helping hubbies back to work mood any.  Especially when it is $20 a week cheaper to take his car!!! mmmmmmmmm

 We also have a new member of the clan.  She was abandoned in the bush at my in laws place and found her way to the house and made herself at home.  Unfortunately they have a large dog who may have mistaken her for an entree so we decided to give her a home.  We were looking into either another cat or a puppy so it was perfect timing.  Hope I can remember how to upload a pic to show you how cute she is.

 We have also celebrated 6 birthdays since Christmas and one of this was Miss 5′s!!!!!   We had an awesome time with a bouncy castle, pinata, games and lots of friends to help celebrate.  But it was one of the hotest days that we had and we had to water down the kids a couple of times.  The bouncy castle was a huge success.   On the down side the waist line has expanded somewhat with all the cakes, bbqs, dinners, lunches and takeaways that we seem to have consumed with all the family around.  So it is salad for me!! lol

We enjoyed a few days away at our favourite piece of paradise but didn’t manage to go for the usual week.  Next year we will!!!  I printed 260 odd pics the other day and am sorting thru them at the moment.  Should have no reason not to get some scrapping time in, fingers crossed.
