Loving my new camera!

I have finally brought myself a camera...I couldn't live without one anymore..So many pictures to take and no camera was driving me crazy..So I put myself first and went shopping...

The first week of the holidays have gone and my camera has been put to good use.
 Paul and I went up to Eildon for a few days to do some more work on the caravan..
When we got up there we went and had a look at the dam..With the amount of rain this winter, there was a lot of talk about the dam looking the best it's been in a long time...They weren't wrong..I couldn't believe the difference in water capacity compared to the start of the year....Great for the water sports..
While up there we also went down town to take some photos of two of my favorite places I like to visit..

This is a photo of the craft gift shop where I brought the Kookaburra magnet..
I couldn't help myself and brought a Possume magnet this time....Now to find another cast-iron pan!!!
This is a photo of a secondhand shop that amazes me with it's goodies...There is always new bits & pieces going into the shop..Some really old like this beautiful old Singer..
While up at Eildon, I took the oppotunity to finish Sarah's party dress I made  for her 6th Birthday Party we held for her on Sunday gone..
 I had scolloped the white part of the dress around the blue but it didn't last long once she started jumping on the jumping castle...
Not the right dress to be boucing around in..But she loved it and had the best time ever....
Sarah woke the next morning saying, "Mummy I'm still 6 years old"...She is so gorgeous...

It's great being a mum and watching the smiles on my childrens faces seeing them happy...It makes me happy and a happy mum makes a happy house....LOL

Hello my friends....Can I firstly say, welcome to Spring....Whoo Hoo...
I am so over winter and the rain and especially the wind...My sinuses have taken a battering this year  and can do with a break..LOL..even though it is Spring, I don't seem to suffer as much...However the flowers a taking a little while to bloom...Too cold still..grrr

I still haven't heard a thing from the hospital regarding my son Maison...Another thing that's taking awhile to come through...grrrr

I have been so busy working at the kindergarten....I've been given more hours than expected but I'm not complaining....The money helps....It's organising the kids...What a pain in the head...I'm not good at asking for help and feel really bad when I need to hassle my neighbour Anna to help.....
Thank God I have a fantastic friend who is always helping me..I love her to bits....

During the week I had finished another art piece...
An old cast iron pan was found in the caravan up at Eildon..At first it was going to be thrown out, but then I had an idea to use it...How, I wasn't quiet sure, but I knew it would make a great art piece for the wall...
Then one day I went down to the local store in Eildon where there was a cute little craft shop...
They had these hand painted magnets I just couldn't resist and ended up buying the Kookaburra..
When I got back to the caravan i looked at the two pieces and in time made them become one..
I have so many others bits and pieces to show..And I will as soon as I get a camera.....grrr
Thanks for dropping by and reading my blog...if anyone has any ideas on how to generate more interested folllowers, please share!
