'Home'

I can't believe its almost May already, this year is seriously zooming ahead of me and sometimes it feels like I am getting left behind.........lol. We have been busy with kids, sport, chores and just the usual daily stuff life throws at us but I managed to squeeze in some me time :)

I love this old photo of the kiddies and me in 2008, I can't believe how little they are. My 'baby' made me a cup of chai tea last night and in this photo he is just so little, now he is spoiling his mother!!


Some close ups..........



For this layout I used the a La Tarte with some flowers from my stash. This kit had so many gorgeous embellies and the ink resist buttons are one of my faves!


I used this gorgeous sketch here at Once Upon Sketch for my layout and I loved the theme of the challenge 'Home'. Now that I have a family of my own, I can't imagine my home any other way. Filled with lots of love, laughter and even the craziness!!

Thanks for popping by and for your lovely comments!

  2. Yes, they grow so quickly do they not? Everyone says it and I have tried to keep my eyes wide open and take in every second of he last few years with my children, yet I still feel like time is just passing so quickly! Sigh..

    Well, thank you for joining us at OUAS! Glad to see you playing along and hoping the monthly challenge gave you more time to join in.

    LOVE your take on the sketch. The collection of papers you have used are awesome. Looks like a lovely kit.
