WOW what a weekend

had an absolutely fabulous time at MIL party. For the family party on Saturday night all the daughters/DIL's had to make a lemon meringue pie - so 5 in total and Trish (mil) had to judge them - so much fun and there is a really long story about lemon meringue pies but I won't bore you with that at the moment!!! The kids (16) were fantastic and sang a special version of My Favourite Things for Trish (will scrap that one day) and it was sooooo cute. Then all the siblings sang Scarborough Fair (one of Trish's favourites) my goodness that family are so musical it makes me jealous!!!

Then all the kids got to "camp" in the lounge room while some of the adults had beds or camped in tents or slept in the back of their cars (Tim and I!!!) was loads of great fun.

Then on Sunday we made a mad rush into Darling Harbour to surprise Trish with a cruise around the harbour - around 60 of her friends and family, a Jazz player, seafood buffett, 5 cakes to spell TRISH - and even though it was raining it was one of the best days I've had.

Have to recharge the camera and download some photos (again).

Here is a LO that I completed for a CC challenge at Bon's - just a little late!!! had to use loads of colour, felt, something new (Kaiser gems) and something old (the chippy title), really loved doing this round LO, and plan to do some more (oneday!!!).
Thanks for looking - I'm busy today organising Book Week costumes for Jess and Pat - but hopefully they will look great.
