Christmas Crafting.


The kids are getting very excited about Christmas.
We had the yearly Santa photo taken on the weekend, another year goes by and Emily still won't sit with Santa.
She's right into his reindeers though.
Duncan's reindeer is called Rudolf and her's is called Bambi, I don't remember a Bambi pulling Santa's sleigh!

Eye Spy Sunday-In My Garden.


We live in a little 'ol unit and unfortunately we have no garden.
I kind of compensate by putting these little guys on the windowsill but I'm often cursing at them when trying to open the window.
Maybe it's a good thing as I have a pretty black thumb!
This little golden lobster also lives on the windowsill, he was given to me by my grandmother. I loved him as a child 'cause he was very shiny and had red rhinestone eyes that have since fallen out, he also doubles as a great bottle opener.
Vase was courtesy of the local op-shop.

A Little Pearl Of Wisdom.


I had a Long and difficult week this week and an especially hard Friday morning so you could imagine my surprise and delight when a mystery package was waiting on my doorstep when I returned home from a hard morning.
Thankyou to Cathy at Big Cat's Emporium for brightening my day.
I won her custom collage giveaway during Blogtoberfest and she did this wonderful piece of work especially for me!
"All That Glitters Is Not Gold", there's certainly some wisdom in those words.
Thanks again.
I nearly forgot, she also enclosed a copy of Mixtape magazine, what a kind gesture. I love mixtape!

And So this Is Christmas.


Ok there was a lot of shuffling and reshuffling, I am now living with a treadmill in my bedroom for the next month but "taaa daaahhhhh", we now have a Christmas Tree!!!!!
Let the fun begin!!!!
If decorating the tree was any indication of how the next month will be, I'm going to need lots of help!!!!
There were fights, there were tears and that was just putting the silly thing together!
As you can see, when it came to the decorations they had more fun decorating themselves.
Bring it on Santa!!!!!!
