Friday 16th October

Well what a blur these holidays have been!!! We had Birthdays Galore with my Sister-In-Law turning 40yo on the October 11th then her son, my nephew, turned 2 on the 12th, my little man hit double figures turning 10 on the 13th...phew. We took the day off for Davids Birthday and took 10 of them to Big Buzz where they rode the water slides all day, having goes on the toboggin and carts, motorised quad bikes, golf and volleyball in between. I made a gridiron cake????yes he found One HD and is addicted to yet another sport....sigh.....otherwise it has been cleaning, cleaning, cleaning. I have worked 10 hours at the van park (over 3 days), cleaned 16 houses, stripped and remade 25 beds(hate top bunks and putting quilt covers on!!!!), my body is tired, my brain is tired, I need a lie down!!!! But it is my turn to host the speed scrap at Nuts4Digi http://nuts4digi.com tonight and I have been working on a couple of layouts which I will share tomorrow. We start chatting about 8pm, if I start talking jibberish I will ask the girl to tell me to go to bed!!!! I really have to thank some special friends, Kerri and Michael Elliott for taking the kids out on the boat and giving them a fun day when we were so busy, also for taking them to the movies, Sue Organ, who actually rang because she knew I would be busy and whom I really only know through soccer, she took David for a day and a half which kept him occupied and exhausted, he had fun playing at the beach, playing table tennis and going for his first round of golf, she was so laid back and generous about it , words can't express my gratitude. Megan Bailey and Rosemary Hudson for having Madi, amusing her and letting her sleepover. All in all I think the kids ended up having a great holiday, and I'm so happy about that. We are blessed with these people in our lives!!!
