Our new little addition...... Angus!

On Friday we welcomed a new member to our family, a little 9 week old labrador puppy Angus!

We didn't tell the girls of his upcoming arriving, as you can image they were excited beyond belief!!

We have become Guide Dog puppy raisers, he will be with our family for the next 12months, he heads off to complete his training as a guide dog, that is as long as he passes all the requirements with 100% pass rate!!  We are hoping he will be successful and become the 'eyes' for a vision impaired person, he has a beautiful nature and will make a perfect companion for one lucky person!  He will take a lot of time to get him up and trained, but we are up for the challenge, he has become my new 'job'- can life get much better????

Not looking forward to the day when he leaves our family, but we will certainly be enjoying him while he is 'ours'

He's just soooooooooo cute, as you can see by the photos, I did struggle to limit the number of photos 'cause he just looks so darn cute in all of them!!



The girls and I went shopping yesterday and bought him a few toys to play with, among them were a tigger toy and this cute little heart, both of which he carries around with him!





Angus with my Niece Lauren, who is worse than the girls when it comes to picking him up-lol!


My favourite to finish off with..........................told you he was a cutie!

Our 2012 Christmas Celebration


Popping in with a few of my favourite pictures from our Christmas!

Rylee and Darcy in their element unwrapping all the presents!

Our festive table, white, silver and black



 Our lunch!! 
 With the recent purchase of a thermomix, lunch was easy and soooooooo yummy!
Greek style lamb,rosemary baked potatoes, beetroot salad with pomegranate dressing and Chicken/Prawn/Avocdo salad with Avocado mayo- needless to say we ended up with very full tummies, but still had room for plum pudding with brandy cream!

The Thermomix also got a good workout making our cocktails too! 



 My very silly family!

still struggling to get a 'Normal' photo-lol!



My Mum Joan and Step father Jim



Happy Anniversary!

Hello peeps, I am back with a card, not one that I have recently made but made last May for my parents Wedding Anniversary!  I have not spent much time in the craft room since before christmas, but hoping to find my mojo and get back into it again soon!!
Popping into Sue W's blog and seeing this card reminded me about this one I forgot to post.
the image is from Just inklined called Ted and Agnes from the Wrinklies collection, I love the images in this collection.
For today's card we will call the wrinklies Joan and Jim-lol!!

the card didn't photograph overly well but you will get the idea anyway!!
