See you soon Pop................

25 years was not long enough to know you.

It only feels like yesterday that we found you and now you are gone.

Thanks for everything over those years and all the love you tried to squeeze into that short amount of time.

The only Pop I've ever known and the best darn one at that.

Glad you are finally out of pain and that you are again with Phyllis.

Did you tell Tana you were going?? Because she told me you were sleeping. She will miss your kisses and high 5's.

Lachie is playing his footy game today for you Pop. Black armband and all. He misses you and is sad you didn't get to see him play.

Love you forever!!

RIP

Another little project.................

I made this album and decorated the cover today for our honeymoon photos. Mind you, we are coming up to 3 years of marriage in October and I haven't done an album yet!!

So I had an idea and went full blast into doing the cover today.

The pages will take a little while and I am yet to have the photos printed, but I will show a few pages every now and then.

I've used Prima swirls with clay roses, Prima vine, Prima rose leaves, Basic Grey Doily papers, Basic Grey Sticker Alphas and Tim Holtz Distress Ink.

Hopefully it won't take me too long to finish.

Our Story ~ in a Miller Family Month ~

After blog hopping one day, I decided to do a mini album about what our family does in a month. I liked the idea of the 52weeks and the 356 photos but honestly, I tried once before and failed after a few weeks.

So I decided to try again but with a project that would be finished a lot quicker using my unbelievable drawer of scraps that are just too pretty to throw away.

I don't know if I get bored with something after a while, but then my TO DO basket has a few UFO's in it that would probably answer that question!!

And this is what I came up with in our family month using up my scraps. I am only showing a couple of pages as Blogger is not letting me add to what I've already upload. Grrrr!................................

NVS & Few of My Fave Things.............................

This is the first time I've played over at NVS aka Nerdy Victorious Scrappers.

And here is my layout. I was inspired by the colours of Red, Black, white and the tan/kraft colour. Also the flag bunting and black type.

This was a fun challenge!!

And These Are A Few Of My Favourite Things challenge at the moment is Toy.

Well, I had to do this as I've had the photo sitting there for ages and have been meaning to do it, so this challenge was perfect timing.

It's my son's favourite sleep toy/comforter. Well, second favourite.

He had a little monkey, Mulligan, Mully for short, that was little enough for him to hold when he was 6 months old, but as he got older, we kept losing them as he would throw them out of the pram while shopping. It got too expensive as they were $15 each, so we got this big monkey that was 3 times the size.

He came with the name Sentwali which is traditional for where these monkeys are native. He couldn't say it so he just called him Monkey.

Monkey was never far away from him at any time and as you can see on his belly, there is remnants of glue when my son was pasting one day.

My son is now almost 10 and it's only been 3 years since Monkey doesn't do much with him now at all.

Thanks for looking!!

Happy creating!

Well I played along with Scrapping The Music again this week. I loved the words in the song and wanted to put down on paper how my daughter needn't ever worry, that her big brother will always be there for her with this layout...........................................................

Thanks for looking and I *do* love reading your comments.

Fave Things - Shoes.........................

It's winter here and my fave shoes at the moment are my ugg boots.

When I'm home, that's all that I wear until I take them off to go to bed. Sometimes I will wear them down to the shops (*gasp*) if I just need to pop in.

So it seemed only appropriate for These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things that I scrap my Ugg's as they are my faves at the moment in this cold cold weather.............................

Thanks for looking and happy creating!!

Happy 40th............................

Well, we had hubby's 40th here at home last night and it turned out great and uneventful. Thank goodness.

He invited his closest friends and it was a great mix. Some I haven't seen in a long time.

Anddd...........we have soooo much food left over!

Anyway, I made him this cake yesterday and he loooooved it.

That's a photo of him skiing that I've put behind the boat.

The water also looks green, but the photo was taken outside under a yellow globe. And blue and yellow make green right!!

But then I could say he's skiing in the Murray! (Fellow victorians would know what I mean! ;o)

Just recuperating today from lack of sleep and having to get up to Montana so early.

As I am typing this, hubby is snoring on the couch and Tana is trying to give him a drink from her sippy cup. It's funny!!

Anyway, it was a great night had by all.
