GARDEN UPDATE

Well, just look at this..................... Broadbeans and Peas galore with lettuces, silverbeet and beetroot peeping through.

Cardmaking

My terrific efforts with a serviette:

MEMORANZA AT WENDY'S

Last Sunday was spent scrapbooking at Wendy's. I felt very enthusiastic and finished 4 pages.

THE DINING ROOM CHAIRS

Nearly finished the chairs, what a hard job it has been.

Lenah/Palava Hop at Carnacoo. We enjoyed crafts and

making icecream in a bag. Jenna-Lee
wanted a better look during the trail so

climbed up the

blood tree to get a better view

Here we are making the icecream

The week that was

Nothing unusual this week, canteen for both High & Primary Schools. Cards on Tuesday, had a demo from Kazzaz Cards which was fun, town on Wednesday for mystery shops and Rawleigh deliveries then into the museum in the evening for a free look at the new exhibition, bit boring. No Joeys, was to be Thursday but due to a muck up, that was cancelled! Jodie on the bus for Scouts Thursday and now Friday - Sarah visiting and she and Amber are having SUCH fun with the drums and guitar. Amber into town for Cubs and me another Mystery Shop at Mackers...... then off to camp tomorrow.

THE BIG WEEKEND

Took Amber to Cubs then off to do my mystery shop, Rawleigh Delivery Ethan. Saturday, we all went to the revamped Exeter Market while Peter continued with the shelving.

Mothers Day AGH I woke feeling awful and the girls brought me breakfast in bed of pancakes with jam and youghurt. Jodie made me the most wonderful power point Mothers Day card and Amber gave me some lovely things she had made at camp - what a lucky person I am.

DAY AT AGFEST

What a fantastic day we had at Agfest. 9.30 getting home at 3.30. A quick look through the crafts where we only bought some fudge and some special pens for the girls then off on a marathon 7ks around the site. We bought a drill sharpener, scissors & blade sharpener and a chainsaw sharpener - golly Peter's work will be cut out for him now.

WEEKEND ACTIVITIES

Took the girls to Port Sorrell for yet another Scout camp. Got there early 1/4 to 6 so we could set up Jodie's tent in the light but the rest of the group, apart from Robbies family, didn't arrive until after 8. This meant getting all the tents including the auto tent up before they went to bed which was after 11pm! Still, by all accounts, they had a good time. Amber got laringitis. Jodie didn't find her camera so no pics.

Peter went to town and on the way back, picked up Ethan to give Tracy a break. As I didn't get home until nearly 10pm, he had to put him to bed - good one! Peter has been madly puttiing up new shelving everywhere. We have now got a lovely new floor to ceiling mirrored wardrobe in the bedroom and it took him just 2 says to put 12 shelves in. Ethan thought it was great fun to ride the tricycle around the garage while Peter was out there.

I have even managed to de weed much of the vegie garden after the wonderful efforts of our French backpackers and now there are lots of broadbeans coming through and hopfully peas very soon.

Back to school today and the mountain (again) of washing.............
