where has the week gone??lol It has been one of those weeks .Zhan has been so sick and hasnt been to school for 10 days.Hes is not 100% but better so will send him to school.I have done nothing much last week except usual house duties and lost of gardening and of course scrapping-lol.I finished my front garden yesterday and very happy how it turned out.then I trimmed all plants at the back and cut my hands in 100 spots-lol as silly me didnt wear gloves.
We leave in a week for NZ :) and cant wait for 10 days of no housework,no ironing,washing,cooking,driving kids everywhere -just hanging out and having fun as a family and exploring South Island.Should be lots of fun.Im looking forward in buying some new perfumes I have my eye on a new Mark Jacobs-"daisy" :) and probably a new Guess bag and a watch (not that I need either as I have 2 new Guess bags)-lol

nothing much has happened over last few days.Zhan is still quite sick but we havent had the call from DRs with the results from the swab (whooping cough) .Tonight I thought I would have to take him to the hospital as he couldnt cough out and was getting quite stressed-poor bugger.

I have done some gardening today and Im already paying for it :( my carpal tunnel is back and my wrist is sore again.
Im planning to go and get more plants and rocks tomorrow so i can finish the very front tomorrow or on the weekend.
Tom also did the lawns and it looks so nice when its freshly mowed and new gardens at the front-lol

I have been scrapping a fair bit over this week but need to take photos of everything -juts waiting on a nice and sunny day.it has been crappy and overcast for far too long :)

Mia has her orientation day at the "BIG" school next friday and she is super excited.


off to finish a page I started earlier- for white with 1 challenge blog :)

not much happening here over last few days.
Zhan has been sick with croup so was on steroids for few days and now he has a nasty chest cough :( he hasnt been to school since thursday :( today he fell asleep on his bed while reading some books :)

Mia is good -cheeky.She has definitly went onto another level with her attitude/responses/manners etc so funny.
The other day while at EMilys bday party Em and her were sitting on the lounge and Mia got a book and was reading it to Em.
I mean FULL ON READING word for word .I was listening and was gobsmacked and called Tom over.He was shocked too.
And the book wasnt a easy one -as in 3 words on a page.They were few sentences on each page.
OMG we ddint even know our baby is 5 and can read and she is not even in the shool yet.
I have to admit she does spend a lots of time with Zhan whom is a great reader for his age and he is alwasy teching her he loves to pretend hesa teacher-hehhe-It paid off -lol
VERY PROUD mummy and daddy moment there :)

I got few things for my garden renos but alas nothing is done yet.I have been stuck inside with Zhan>
we are off to New Zealand in 2 week and OMG I havent done anything yet .lol
My in laws are back on Friday from their 3 month European holiday so we will head up to their place on Friday avo.I will make few dishes and take up so we can have a welcome back get together BBQ :) kids re looking forward to it.

I have done few things scrapping wise but havent had a chance to take a photo as it has been shit weather .
