My2Angels Waaayyy Down Under

Sorry I haven't been here for a few days. What a week I have been having! I have been very busy at work with the new library move, it took much longer than anyone thought it would! Then Friday(EXCITEMENT) Tracey and her lovely mother and two angels arrived at my place ready for the classes on Saturday. We took her children to a musical performance on Friday night. I would have pics for you all BUT when I pulled the camera out of it's case it had no memory card in it!! Grrrr

Saturday was a wonderful day, a little full on for some of us with 4 classes on but we all loved it! A couple of the ladies were complete beginners and they are now addicted lol. Sorry ladies there goes all of your free time and spare change now!

























This was the boy page for our class. This is my gorgeous 15yr old son Josh. Funny little bugger he is. He hates having his photo taken! I loved doing this page. I find it hard doing boy pages. I never know what to add for embellishments. Tracy had some wonderful ideas.


























This is the lovely off the page class. A house with a removable roof so that it can be used as storage. It's just the right size for holding dimensional magic and a million other pieces :) Mine is being used as adhesive storage. The houses were made by me for the kits :)
























This one is my favourite page. The pic is my two youngest girls Mikaela and Kelsie. I have never painted chipboard in different colours before I use it, I always coat in one colour. So that was something different for me. I have also never used tulle, being too far from a shop that sells it! I really like the look, I am going to use more of it from now on. This page has so many different little embellishments on it you never really see it all on the first look. Just like all of Tracys pages!

So back to my horror week now the good bit is over!

Poor Tracy and family. The weather was so bad here on the weekend they weren't able to get out and see anything. We had planned on Sunday to get out and show them the west coast but we woke up Sunday morning to pouring rain and gale force winds. They decided to travel up to Burnie and stay the night there before heading on to Devonport. The trip to Burnie which should have taken them just over an hour took them 2 and a half hours! There were power lines and trees down on the roads everywhere and major delays in traffic as the roads were closed!

Trust Tassie to turn on the good weather for them.

I wandered in to work on Monday (I don't usually work on Monday's) , and in the sunshine mind you, to discover our beautiful new library/access centre had leaked like a 70 year old wooden boat! There was 2 inches of water on the floor in the foyer access centre! One whole row of computers were full of water and a whole stack of books were ruined :( The new carpet is soaked through. Sigh. One very busy day was spent trying to clean up the damage.

Today is my recovery day. I hope Tracy and family had a lovely time here despite the weather! I know I loved meeting them all and spending some time with them :)
