Change....

Well hello there...

I know, I know yet again I have neglected my poor, poor blog.

I swear if my blog was a friend it would probably never want to speak with me again 

(or at least not for a very long time lol.)

Well they say change is as good as a holiday but I beg to differ. 
In the last few months we have had so much change, we've changed address (a nightmare in itself there especially trying to find rentals in Mackay), Jason change jobs 3 times (he just started a new and better job 2 weeks ago so hopefully there will be NO more for a while), our family dynamics are changing too - Jason's new job will take him away from home during the week which means it'll just be me and the boy (a big change but we've done it before, so I'm confident it won't be a problem).


Other than these changes in the last few months I have completed my Certificate II in Retail, been looking and applying for part-time work, looking for a new rental property, packing up our stuff, moving out of our old house/into our new house, taking Rhyley to Maths tutoring, Easter, school holidays, a return train trip to Bundaberg (10 loooonnnnng hours each way) to celebrate my Pop's 90th (yes, it's quiet a milestone!), watching Rhyley march at the ANZAC day parade and so much more it is actually making me sleepy just thinking about it all.

So as you can imagine blogging has been the last thing I've had time for, I haven't really 
had the time to scrap either or the desire.
But I managed to put the following pages together over the past few months:

This one was for a Mixed Bag Monday Challenge over at Peppermint Creative

The next ones are layouts from my Pop's 90th birthday lunch. 

I used MissMint's funky new Celebration Station Collection and Basil by Sara Gleason

This one was made using the free Pimp My Page Template from Peppermint Creative head over there to grab your copy

 Anyway it's time to wrap this up. I'm off to do some more scrapping.

So until next time,

Hectic

Wow it has been so busy here since my last post.
I am still studying my uni course which I have exams for in 2 weeks *cringe* I am a little scared cause I haven't sat an exam since Grade 12 which was 13 years ago hopefully I don't get too nervous.

So other than studying we have been busy with school holidays, football, school and heaps more and I have even managed to scrap a bit as relaxation between assignments.
Here is what I've scrapped since last time:

Mixed Bag Monday Challenge- Extract It

This photo was taken when we went to see the Gold Coast Titans play the Melbourne Storm at Skilled Park during the Easter school holidays. We had a great time and the boys were stoked that the Titans won the game.

This layout was made using photos from Easter. We made Cascarones and before smashing them they were hidden around the yard for Rhyley to find then we all got to smash them on and over each others heads. These we so much fun we are doing it again next year!

This layout is using one of those photos you just cherish because they are so rare. Getting Jason to really smile is near impossible. And I was honoured when Miss Mint choose both this one and the one above for Mint-spirational Monday on her blog.

A Week In The Life Challenge involved creating a layout showing what you did each day for a week obviously. It was huge week filled with study, assignment results, school, Rhyley got an award for participating in the school Fun Run, a memorial service for Rhyley's school friend Steven and his brother Tim and mother Maggie Halliwell who were killed in a car accident, a trip to Ballina to visit Mum and Dad, fishing and Anzac Day.

As you can see it has been hectic around here. I have a few more layouts to post but I will have to save them for the next post.

Until next time
