new scrap pages

Last Friday night I went with a friend over to Scrapbook Cottage for 6 hours of un-interrupted scrapping! Had such a good time and got quite a bit done. Here are some of the pages (there is one more but I will add that to my SU! blog). This one is from last Winter when we took the kids to a local shopping centre as they had set up a mini ice skating rink. Aiden struggled a bit and needed our help, but they both loved it. I actually used quite a few photos on this page, so if I keep going to these Friday night scrapathons I might end up seeing my photo stash decrease!!! I must try and print more of my photos in this smaller size so then I can use more on my pages.


This one is from a recent family outing to Katoomba to see some waterfalls (I wanted to play with my new DSLR)


A quick page of Aiden listening to an ABC disc the year before he started kindy. (page uses Studio calico kit)


This page I'm also very happy with. I have been waiting for quite some time to scrap these photos from when we went to the Gold Coast almost 2 years ago. I had wanted to try ZORBING last time we went, but just ran out of time. SO this time I really wanted to try it. We weren't really sure how we were going to do it with the kids in tow, but when we got there, we realised kids cold go as well and yes, ours wanted to have a go. So Jason went first with both the kids, while I photographed and got some young girls to video it for me. After their go, it was my turn. The kids were allowed to have 2 goes, but Aiden didn't want a second go, so Tahlia and I went. This time Jason photographed and the young girls were happy to video again for me (and I in turn photographed their turn). It was so much fun (but over very quick) and I'm glad I had tried it. It was like being on a slip n slide (as we went in the ball filled with warmish water). Just very hard trying to get back out. Lots of laughs were had thats for sure. (I still need to add journalling to this page and I will write something similar to this post and use hidden journalling so it doesn't take up space on the page.

Thanks for looking,
Donna
