A Little Birdie Has Come to Nest

On Tuesday I was letting our dogs out for the day when I noticed this bird's nest hanging from the "clothesline" we have hanging under our back veranda.

There was no bird in the nest so I decided to have a peek inside and what did I spy?, a tiny little egg!

The tiny egg inside the nest

I was curious to find out what sort of bird had built this strange looking nest so I of course jumped on to the computer to Google what new life we will be seeing in the New Year.

After a little while I found what I was looking for and discovered we had a little family of Olive-Backed Sunbirds (commonly known as Yellow Bellied Sunbirds).

I have been keeping an eye on the Mumma bird and she has been sitting on her precious little egg all day long. Can't wait until Rhyley is home after Christmas to see the nest with the Mumma bird in it and wait for the egg to hatch and watch the Mumma and Pappa bird raise there little baby in the New Year!

So today I was actually in the mood to do a little scrapbooking!  

Here are the layouts and with these two layouts I have achieved my goal of 52 layouts for the year!!

YAY!!! GO ME!! 

This layout is for the December Pimp My Page Challenge at Peppermint Creative (head over there to grab the freebie template)

This layout I made using Grow With Love: Kids Edition by Sara Gleason & Crystal Livesay, Valorie Wibben's Platform 9 and 3/4 and Miss Mint's awesome new freebie kit Movie Night

Until next time,

Study, study, study

Yep that's right I am studying this year!
I decided to do the Tertiary Preparation Program through the University of Southern Queensland.
So this semester I will be studying two subjects Studying to Succeed (which is basically English) and Maths, then next semester I will pick up General Science.
Then after passing these courses I should be able to gain a place in a Bachelor of Nursing with an extra year for a Bachelor of Midwifery.

Of course at the moment studying is taking up most of my free time which means I have very little time to scrap let alone blog about what I've scrapped.
So until the end of June layouts maybe few and far between but hopefully I will still be able to reach my goal of 365 layouts for the year. *fingers crossed*

Here is the latest layout I've done:

Well I better go and finish my assignment
Until next time

New Goal!

My new goal is to try and scrap at least one page everyday for the next year!
I am so hoping I can stick to my goal and achieve it!

I am really looking forward to trying to achieve this goal!
So hopefully this time next year I will be able to look back on this blog and see at least 365 layouts/hybrid projects posted.
I guess this is my version of Project 365!
So wish me luck and follow the journey :)

Here is today's layout:
