and of course her wonderful mum,
Paula and her big sis Em.... It was very exciting to go and visit Paula and her two girls when I was over in Australia over the weekend. I got a couple of photos..... nice one of Lilly ( but not of me!!!) and one of Paula and I together on her deck. Plus the card I made for Paula and Doug to celebrate Lilly's birth
We had a very enjoyable afternoon visiting. Saw Paula's lovely crafting area and got a few tips and hints from her as well as a lovely bag of goodies.... stamps, papers, some stickles amongst other stuff.... Thank you heaps Paula. It was so cool to meet up with an "e-friend". Paula also gave me directions to a couple of scrapbook/stamping stores... only got to visit one as the other was closed for stocktake!!! I could have taken some stock of their hands!!!!! Still did manage a wee spend up....
I totally enjoyed the break away...and catching up with my parents was a bonus. The weather was nice- two of the days were very warm- managed to sunbathe at the beach and got a touch of colour!!! Swam in the pool each day ( not as brave as hubby who swam in the sea) The five days just flew by - now two days later feels like it was an eternity ago. However 8 weeks and I'll be in England.... that's something to look forward to...
thanks for visiting. Time to craft now....

Hi Dawn,
As I'm writing this I have Lilly Bug in a sling in front of me & Em is cranky as I kicked her off the "unicorn game" ;). Thanks for visiting with us, we all had a wonderful day. Em loves her sheep & thinks you are wonderful. I am glad that you had a wonderful time here in Australia & that you enjoyed your gifts. I know I had a great time meeting you & your family xoxoxoxoxo
