Our beautiful coastline

On Saturday we had a really nice day driving down the coast a bit to have a look at Yallingup and Canal Rocks. The weather was a bit cool and windy which made for some spectacular sights, especially at Canal Rocks with the waves pounding over the rocks. The boys really enjoyed seeing this; but were just a bit hesitant when it came to crossing over the bridge at Canal Rocks. We have some amazing coastline down this way and it's all in our backyard. So we are sure going to enjoying visiting the many exciting places down this way.






CANAL ROCKS

YALLINGUP BEACH AND PLAYGROUND

Our day ended with having a drink at Symen & Gina's and then staying for a BBQ. A nice relaxing day!!

School bus

Since we now live about half hour away from school, Kyle goes to school on the bus everyday. This bus belongs to the families that live in Busselton and driven by some of the mums. We all meet at the bus stop in Vasse where the bus is parked. Kyle enjoys going on the bus and loves being with all the other kids. Here is a photo of him getting ready to go on the bus this morning.

Monday's cards - Sell-a-brations!

Got very much motivated and inspired to do some SU creations last night and today. Have used the 'Very Punny' set here with the 'Seeing Spots' set as background. With the 'chirp up' card I've used my new Large Scallop punch' (Carl punch) and oval shapes using Creative Memories cutters.

Just love all those little sayings! Enjoy!

Some pictures of our home

Well, finally some pictures of our house, for those that have not seen it yet. It's starting to feel like our home now with most of our stuff unpacked.

My very own space for my craft goodies. My room to enjoy being creative with Stampin'Up. It's so nice to have a special spot for it so I'm going to try and keep it looking neat.









A view of our kitchen.
The boys love sitting on the barstools and having their breakfast or snacks.

A new piece of furniture which we just got yesterday. Really happy with it. Warren says no more furniture now, 'cause he has had enough of lifting and shifting!! Okay dear!!
A view of our living area with our new leather couches. They are so comfy!!


Some pictures of the kitchen. Lots of space for everything. Quite an unusual shape being very long, but I'm loving it.

Well, there you have it. Some inside news on our house.

The boys & apples

Tyson & Liam just love apples. And when Renae came 'round oneday with a special gadget to peel/core/slice it was even better. It's a fun way to eat apples as it makes a big long peice of peel and then cuts the apple to pull out like a spring. Great to use for when making apple sauce and apple pie - yummy!!

Today I captured a moment of them with apples and happy smiles. Thanks Aunty Renae!!

Katie & Ben

Just this Friday gone, 2nd February, we celebrated Katie (my sister) & Ben's engagement. They had a party at Craig & Renae's on the balcony. Was a great night, lots of family and friends. We wish them a happy time of engagement and look forward to the big day, around March next year.
