It's begining to look a lot like Christmas

HI Everyone
Haven't the days flown. It feels like only yesterday that I did my last post. So much has happened in those couple of days.

Tuesday 9th December

Today I went into town with the family I work for and looked after the girls at the pool for most of the morning - I even went for a swim - to hot sitting on the side lines - I got soooo burnt.
Had the eldest girls graduation dinner as well today and it was lots of fun.



Wednesday 10th December
Had the girls presentation day today. I was the run around girl doing all the jobs down the street for H and M (I didn't want to make sandwiches so was quite happy to do the running around)

I got to arrange the schools Christmas Hamper which we raffle. It had lots of goodies in it which families donate. One of those things that you wish you could win.

Not many pages posted for the above two days due to the fact I took lots of photos from the graduation and presentation which I do not wish to post.

Thursday 11th December

Today I went to the local school presentation which was lots of fun - the 7 students who range from year one to year six put on a play which had the whole crowd laughing. (Again only one photo due to not wanting to post other peoples photos.)


Thursday 12th December

Went to town today and did some Christmas shopping - Hence it is starting to feel like Christmas. Lots of Christmas decorations up every where in town and lots of happy faces.
Kept saying to myself all day - It's begining to look a lot like Christmas - I think it is a song but am not sure???



The puppies are starting to drink milk from a dish - well it was their first time today and two of them got the hang of it real quick while the others .... we will have to wait. Two of them were interested in my shoes both getting their heads stuck - very cute.


Well that's it for the last couple of days.

Am in the christmas mood today so am making a few things to decorate the house. Will post pictures when I have finished them.

Happy Christmas Everyone - Only 12 more days to go.....

Isn't she gorgeous - the puppies are only two weeks old and all of them now have their eyes open - they are also developing their personalities.
I think my computer hates me....
I tried to post these yesterday and earlier this morning but I have only just got onto the interent, and it keeps freezing on me..... Emma Not Happy.... Hopefully I can post without a problem...fingers crossed
Silly Season Journal Entries

These are my Tree Inchies - not very clear Sorry.
December 4th Thursday






December 5th - Friday - Last day of school for 2008.
These entries aren't in order as I added more to the entry afterI had taken my first lot of photos. Most of this entry is of things that I have taken off the school room wall that I have collected over the year. I am going back next year to teach but I like to start a fresh...
Snowman is a smaller version of the one that the yougest girl made for her Christmas craft. I thought he was cute so had to make one.


December 6th - Saturday
Photo of J and I testing out our new louge that I bought at the clearing sale for $50. They are in the shed for our entertaining area - I was sick of sitting on plastic chairs.





December 8th - Monday - Very Lazy day today - didn't take any photos, didn't write anything down, only drew the four characters out of Madagascar while I watched it on DVD.


Well I am off to town today for School graduation dinners then presentations. So won't be posting again until Thursday. That is if my computer loves me like it is at the moment.
Happy Creating
ONLY 16 days till CHRISTMAS
Who's been Naughty and Who's been Nice???

The Start of the Silly Season

HI Everyone,
It's only 20 days till Christmas????
Where has the year gone????
For the silly season I am keeping a Journal that I have journal lifted from Ali Edwards December Daily. I am going to include everything right up to the new year in it. I am using an A5 display folder which I have cut and altered and have included rings to hold more pages.
The photos that I am posting don't have the photos on the pages of the journal as I haven't been home to print them yet.
For each day I am including a favourite Christmas comic that I can find and when I start listening to some Christmas music it will include my favourite song from the day.
Apart from the comic there is no real theme to my journal - what ever I have on hand will be included, I have also pre cut some pattern paperwhich I will use as well.
Here are the first 3 days of my Journal.



Don't know why these pictures are small. Tired changing them to bigger but no luck. Sorry


You can't read the writing on this page but it says how I must have had coffee on my mind while I was watching the girls swim and painting as that is what I painted, 4 coffee cups.

Well that's it for today. Will hopefully post days 4, 5, 6 and 7 on Sunday afternoon.
It's the last day for me in the school room at work - last school day for 2008.
Lots of cleaning up and finalising of things today - VERY BUSY....
Happy December, till next time.
Emma
