Luckiest Girl in the World!

Today, I feel like the luckiest girl in the world.

I won the Guest DT spot for September at Bon's Scraps for my "Our Winter" layout and get a yummy pack in the post along with other benefits.

I received an email today from Sonia at Forever Always offering me a Guest DT spot for September/October as well as winning the August Sketch Comp for "anticipation".

I made it through to Round 3 of the Scrap Therapy Design Team Comp. Natalie's sending the 10 a pack and we need to whip something marvellous up. Next round is harder....an online class. Need to call in favours if I make it through.

Mackinley got the award for "Best Worker" yesterday, and got to wear "The Hat" today.

Mrs Marsh has the best incentives for the kids to do well. I help out on Tuesdays now and all I did was paint paint paint with the kids. I love it and Mackinley loves it, and he told me today that his classmates love it when I come to help out. Lucky me!!!

And, Hannah gave me a bunch of these gorgeous camelias from her garden yesterday AND today!!

I think the little spunky chunky is warming up to me LOL!!!!

Happy Birthday Lilly.

Sometimes I forget you are 4 years younger than me, because you are much more wise and thoughtful....and an awesome Mother, Teacher, and Sister. Love you Lig.

Happy Father's Day, to my Dad...Ross the Boss!!

Made a quick card from some left-over Pebbles Inc paper and a flower (he didn't say anything about that....) and the bits poking out the sides are from the scratch-it. So hard to buy Dad anything and I don't think he wears Old Spice anymore!!

Happy Father's Day to Michael. When Mackinley suggested this....

as a Father's Day present I was delighted. Fancy a 6 year old boy identifying his father's taste at such a young age!! Then I remembered that he watched The Goodies at Nena's a while back. You should see his face when he watches the episodes. I doubt he understands the humour, but he must love the silliness of it all....as I did way back when.

It's raining again!! My tube stock hasn't died and Rainer has stopped pouring sand over one poor plant, or pulling the whole lot up.

We had dramas trying to car-pool with Trish this morning. Rainer's going through another "Mummy-Love" phase where he just constantly cuddles me. It's great, but he won't let me out of his sight!!! I doubt he'll go with Trish until next Term now....bummer. I think poor Trish is a little scarred by the incident as well. Lily is a very passive ASD girl, not like Rainer, at all!!

I feel a creative spurt coming on.....and being a little overwhelmed at the same time...but a "good" overwhelmed. I need to push myself to the next creative level. Wish me luck!

Be Strong...and a quick scrapper!!
