Update overload

Just when you thought it was safe to come back to my blog I posted for a fourth time in one day - crazy stuff! But please stay awhile, this is a scrappy post, no more pics of the family, I promise :)

So, this is what I've been up to. A Simon Says challenge from Kate the Great. Angus and his friend Bill striking a pose at their Yr 6 Farewell.
This one is is for the theme challenge at Challenge Heaven - a candid pic and twine. My kids were so excited when their school book packs arrived, they examined each and every item, but then who doesn't love a parcel and stationary items??
This one is my take on the sketch challenge at Once Upon A...Sketch. You had to journal about why the pics were important. Mine feature my scrappy buddy Janina and me.  I wanted to record how important her friendship is to me without being overly sentimental or soppy because she always makes me laugh :)
Thanks for stopping by I hope you're having a fabulous Easter break.
