Better update before next year ....

I can't believe how quickly the time passes ..... i'm always popping in to read everyone elses blog but rarely sit and take the time to update my own ... i really hope to improve this for 2010.

Although .... i did try and update back in Nov and blogger wouldn't co-operate, so in the end i just gave up.

I'll catch up in point form.

* Went to a concert in the vineyards with friends, atmasphere and company was fab but the main act (band) was very ordinary. At least the weather was kind and wasn't too hot.
* Had a wonderful weekend away with the girls at the Scrapbook'n'bits Retreat. Here is a pic of the layouts we created in my workshop.




* We attended a few parties in Dec for a 50th Wedding Anniversary & a 40th .... at both we caught up with old friends we haven't seen for quite a few years. Always great to catch up! 2010 will see lots of 40th birthday parties amongst our friends (but not me .... i have a little longer to go he he ) .... that will mean seeing lots of old friends and reminiscing!

* DH started a new job .... we are really happy with him being fortunate to get this opportunity .... now just to re-adjust to new rosters etc. It's all good!

* Blake finished his first year of high school .... hard to believe [sigh]. We attended his end of year awards ceremony and were very thrilled that he received 4 awards (3 being subject scholastic awards for being in top 5% of his year) ... very proud!

* Lots of Christmas Cheer and parties throughout December .... although i whinge about being so rediculously busy etc .... i really do love Christmas.

.... and then it was CHRISTMAS ....

We were all very spoilt and had a lovely day. Just hard to believe it is all over in the blink of an eye and another year rolls on.

I will share some photos soon (taken with my new Xmas present camera [wink]) ...

Well, here's hoping this post will upload (not like the last one).

Last but not least ..... to my beautiful niece (in the top LO above) .... sending birthday wishes for yesterday (26th Dec) ... HAPPY BIRTHDAY ! xx

Have a great new year's everyone. I hope 2010 brings you a year of happiness, good health and all your dreams come true :O)
