New photos of Brianna & Keeley

Hello again everyone, I hope this finds you all well. I had a wonderful day today, I had the pleasure of the Ninnes family for lunch and then Leish and I scrapped the afternoon away!!! Well Leish probably did more than me, as I was busy with the camera taking photos of their beautiful children! I only got to take a couple of Keeley as she went home with Dad to have a sleep. But I took heaps of Brianna, she looked so cute today in her new lil outfit!! Craig's Mum gave each of the girls some new clothes.
And here is a tender moment shared between Mother and Daughter
Awww I love babies so much...they make me so clucky!!! Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving me your heartfelt comments. They put a smile on my face and lift my spirits. I really appreciate them, Luv Shaz xoxo

Good Morning to all my lovely friends out there in this cyber world we all love.

I met Chris through SBM Scrap Room after commenting on her LO's and then we joined a group of fellow SBM to form the Challenge Chic's where groups of 4 of us were grouped together and we sent out parcels to these people and then we had a month to complete the challenge.

This was so much fun and I got to meet some really beautiful people whom have become very dear friends throughout this wonderful world of www. We all have joined several forums and have always continued to stay in touch....And I have met so many beautiful people through blog hopping

Now Chris is has her very own site which is called Born2Create and although I don't visit there as much as I would like to she is still a very big part of my life in this scrapping and blogging world. We have just moved over to our new home for

OMG This has been the longest 15 weeks of my life!!! I am finally back in my bedroom....My room is all back in one piece!!! Sorry for complaining so much!!! Hope I haven't turned you away from my blog with all my complaints!!!
I promise I will stop whingeing now! Here are some pics of the bedroom...
Boring I know but I am so excited to sleep in my bed again after all this time
This photo is of me on the first night back in my room and my bed...do I look happy?? Hell Yeh!! I am still yet to put everything back in it's place so it is looking really bare ATM!And I also have a new play thing to share with you all!!! Nah not a bedroom play thing...LOL!!! I finally took the plunge and brought my new camera!!!I brought a Canon 450D with the Twin Lens Kit plus heaps of accessories!!!
Now the first 3 photos are Baz taking photos of me with my new play thing!!!
And and the final 3 are me just randomly taking photos of the my family on the Auto settings....Wish I had of used the portrait settings....But it is all a learning curve for me as my lil Fuji is just a point and shoot camera.
They weren't very willing subjects yesterday so I went for a walk around my yard and out to 3 Mile Rd to take some other photos. Here's a sneak peak...
Please check them out at my photo blog - The Focus Is On You.

Well that's all from me for now...I am off to Airlie again today...My poor DH cracked a tooth yesterday so I am taking him to the dentist....OUCH, bets this hurts the bank balance!!! So hopefully I will have some more photos to share with you tomorrow.

Have a great day, hopefully you will all be scrapping the day away! Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving me your heartfelt comments. They put a smile on my face and lift my spirits. I really appreciate them, Luv Shaz xoxo

Babies and Scrapping

Good Morning Girls....Hope this blog post finds you all well and enjoying school holidays with your children!!! I don't have much to share just a couple of pics and 2 Scrapping projects that I did on Sunday when I went to Proserpine to scrap with my friends Tammie & Debbie.

I have 3 baby photos to show you...While I was at Tammie's on Sun...I kept forgetting to take photos (yes, can you believe it?) of Lucas while he was awake!!! But finally as I was about to leave I took some photos of Lucas...Most of them Lucas was pulling the funniest & weirdest faces....We could do a LO of the many faces of Lucas!!! Here's just a lil reminder of what Lucas looked like when he was a new born
and what he looks like now! He has changed so much, I can't believe that they are 5 weeks old already!!! Look at the difference between him and Brianna, she is so much bigger than him. She loves booby this lil miss and it shows!
Well Girls as I said I went to Proserpine to scrapbook on Sun....This is what I achieved for the whole day!!! While I was visiting Rach, Aaron & Izzy I took about 170 photos at their local park and these were the last ones that I took for the afternoon and are probably my favourites!

It shows how much Aaron loves Rach & Izzy....So I decided to make this for Rach even though we are not on talking terms at the moment. I just wanted to let her know that not only is she loved by Aaron, she is also loved by her family and her friends!! I miss you Rach and I hope that one day soon you will forgive me and speak to me again!!! I am sorry, I did not think that I did anything wrong...
I only did it out of love for you and your family. They are worried about you!
I made this LO with Love for you and I hope that you like it!
And I made this card for a very Dear Friend of mine....Sorry it is late as is your birthday present!!! It will get there eventually!!!

Well girls nothing else for me to share except hopefully tonight I will be sleeping in my bedroom, the carpet is supposed to be going down today after 2pm!
Will have photos of the big event tomorrow if it all goes to plan...
No scrapbooking classes tonight!!! Just moving back into my room and finally sleeping on my bed and not on the floor!!! Wish me luck girls please???

Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving me your heartfelt comments. They put a smile on my face and lift my spirits. I really appreciate them, Luv Shaz xoxo

Thanks Skye for creating it for the CC's!!! And Deb here is to a new beginning at no cost to you. Angie has done a wonderful new Banner for the Challenge Chics. And to those friends of mine who I haven't been over and checked it out....Lots of challenges to get the creative juices flowing!!! Hopefully my mojo will return really soon....I have so much product it is not funny and no inclination to scrap!!! How sad!!!

Have you seen the new range for Kaisercraft....OMG it is to die for!!!I brought some of it today...got it at a really good price as I know the owner!!!

MIA...Surely one day I will take a trick!!

Well I am so sorry girls....I have been MIA since the 20th!!! I am feeling rather depressed(OMG I said that word) Yeh I probably shouldn't be saying this out loud as it might mean that I have to admit that I have a problem!!! My house is such a pig sty and I can't clean it up as there is crap everywhere!!! I am so disgusted in myself that I won't even open the curtains anymore!!! Our lounge chair has became my wardrobe!!! And the lounge room is now our bedroom!!! OHHH I am so over it!!!

Well as you know some drunken idiot 5 times over the limit drove into our house exactly 3 months ago today!!! Well I am depressed over the fact that it has been 3 months that I have been sleeping on the floor in our lounge room!!! Our bedroom has now been fixed since the 12th of June but because they haven't yet replaced the carpet in our room we are still sleeping on the floor!!! I know I sound like a broken record...but how long does it take to replace the carpet!!! GRRRR!!! And to top this all off, they still haven't fixed the airconditioning in the bedroom that hasn't been working since the 9th of Mar!!! Apparently they are waiting on part....well the part must be coming by a camel train via Dubai!!! I could have brought a new airconditioner quicker than them getting this part!!!

Hopefully one day soon I will take a trick and finally be back sleeping in my bedroom!!! If I win Lotto on Tues night I will be on the first plane out of here....leaving the mess behind. Sorry I am not in a more cheerful mood but I am not and probably won't be until all this is sorted out!!! I would so love to be back in my room by the 21st of July!!! My DD 18th birthday party is being held here at home and I want the house to be cleaned up by then!!! Bye for now Luv Shaz xoxo
PS I thought I would just add this for some light reading....There is no justice!!!
