Had to me more than seven days...

Tell me how does a four day work week feel like more than seven?
It took a long time for Friday to come around...

Haven't started counting days to the summer vacation...yet.
*grin*

I've spent the weekend making miniature food and writing the last two papers for my studies.
In that order.
I still have one paper to finish, blech.
Plus I'm sure I'll have to make some additions to them once my teacher looks through them.
I find it so hard to write text for text's sake... I'm more blunt straight to the point, forget the crap. The plan still is to graduate on May 28th :)

OK, time for newborn therapy:

aaawwww....
I get to be god mother!
yay!

Saara looooooves her new cousin.

As for baby Julia.. hehee.. newborns have such fun facial expressions.. really hard to keep up with a camera.

My teenager has a new hairstyle.
She looks so grown-up all of a sudden.


And I think she likes that :)


Let's hope this coming week is shorter, heh.
Seeing as we have a six day work week I'm not sure how that'll happen :D
One can dream, right?
Well, instead of moping, I'll send you to Flickr again.
One of my favorite pick-me-ups.

Layout x10

Remember you can see these bigger by just clicking the photo.
Still working on photos from the camp school trip (this year's grade 6 is leaving in just a couple weeks). I still have a few more pages to come... ;)

We saw the Lord of the Rings musical.

Pure magic.

The kids would have stopped at EVERY SINGLE GIFTSHOP if they were allowed. So these signs really tickled my funny bone!


Warwick Castle had beautiful grounds and tame peacocks around every hedge.


This is an older page I had forgotten to show you.

One of life's simple pleasures to bury your toes in warm sand.

Home sweet home.. of course the twist here is that the word home in Finnish means mold, heh...

We really miss our old classroom.. just not the mold.

These pages were up on the AMLT blog as Jill has monthly Basic Grey kits for sale. Those kits go a long way.




I love these gridded Scenic Route papers...


This I scrapped today.
Just for fun.
That was nice for a change.

What can I say.. I love my scissors.
