Today we will all be piling into the Highlander and going to Kelly and Rena's combined Birthday Party in Hamilton.
I'm quite looking forward to it. We haven't been to Hamilton for a while.
I am totally chuffed with my re-arranged kitchen cupboards by the way! I've got heaps of room for all me bits 'n' bobs now! I am amazed at how much 'stuff' I have! The only thing I have to do now is NOT GET MAD when I can't find anything! lol
When we get back from Hamilton, I hope to actually get some sewing done! I have been saying that for ages, and it never happens? I don't know why!
Right... time to get moving... want to get a few things done around the house before we head off....
ONWARD...
Well... we drove to Hamilton, had a 'party' type lunch, watched Rena open some presents and ... came home again. 4 hours out of the day!
Now I want to go downstairs and tidy up the card making area... and the sewing area so I can do some sewing.
At last.
Got a few photos of today:
ABOVE: on the left the Card Steve and Bex made, on the right, mine.
Now... before I go downstairs, I'm off to do something with hard boiled eggs for dinner.
End of Day: we watched 'My Sisters Keeper' movie tonight. I had read the book, so found the movie not so good. It had a totally different ending from the book too... which was confusing.... but at least the movie had a nicer ending than the book.
ON TRACK: nah, I had some chocolate!
nite nite.
Have a fantastic trip @ drive safely.
ReplyDeleteCupboard clearing is quite an achievement and yes FINDING thins can make you a bit cross, I love the BAG but finish YOUR other things first, have a lovely time in Hamilton today, I'm shifting firewood yay thriling.
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
ReplyDeleteOh I do LOVE that bag!! It's gorgeous! Have a fun filled family day in Hamilton! Hope the party goes well :)
ReplyDeleteLove the bag, and I hope you have a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteAren't families wonderful -when everybody plays nice. LOL
ReplyDeleteThat little Kelly is so cute -I can sure see you in her.
Little Rena has the cutest eyes - I think you were right -they look tired Birthdays must be hard on her.
That backpack is really neat - I Love the birds on it.
LOL - trouble finding things in your new kitchen????? LOL
I'm intrigued by the boiled egg project - you will tell or show us the results, won't you?
ReplyDeleteGlad Hamilton went well, the cards and presents look great.

Love the Birdie backpack and I'm not a fan of orange either. much prefer blue but that backpack looks very cool.
ReplyDeleteIsn't Bex a clever wee thing, I can see her making you one with blue sky and blue water background with either googlie eyed fish or frogs... hope that does not ruin a surprise from her to you in the future!
Kelly looks like her Mommy!!! Rena is beautiful with gorgeous eyes that do look tired. Bless her heart..
ReplyDeleteThat egg is cute but seems like a lot of work...LOL
Wow, those cards are nice!!!
God Bless~

Love the painting that is awesome, and that egg thing looks so cool might have to give it a try one day :)
ReplyDeleteThat egg thing look cool. I think the eggs have to be hot. Maybe if you boiled them, peeled them, then put them back in the hot water for a few seconds, it would be easier..
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice day!! I love Birthday Parties. It's fun to see the birthdayee open the presents! The cards everyone made were pretty cute!! Sorry the egg thingie didn't work...Bummer. Like you said! "At least you tried!". Have a good weekend. or what's left! ...debbie
ReplyDeleteI remember being totally pissed off with the ending of the book. The movie is more realistic but it was annoying that they changed it.
