Day 206 - Stranger

I found this topic a little challenging on a work day - it isn't often we have "stranger's" walking into the school gates. Today we began some AFL clinics at school, supported by ACT/NSW AFL. Gavin pictured here, was a stranger until we had a little chat during the clinic.

I think he fits the bill of stranger quite well.

Day 205 - A well loved Mirror

This is the back of the most well loved mirror in our house. It is used for many different things and has been in my mum's collection for as long as I have known. It has some very delicate flowers on the back and has been used nearly to its death - hopefully it can stick together for a few more years.

Day 202 - Eyes

Shane and I headed to Sydney this weekend for some much needed R & R. While there tonight, we headed over to China Town to have a look at the markets and enjoy some delicious food. While there, we were greeted with these beautiful eyes on one of the Lion's sculptures. He kept me company when it started to rain and Shane was lining up to get some spicy pork.

Tomorrow, we are going to climb the Harbour Bridge. Let me just say...I am a little nervous, but excited all the same. Hopefully the Lion gave me some of his courage to make it all the way too the top.

Dy 201 - Animal

The Gruffalo is one of the only animals allowed in our house. The girls do not like many animals in particular cats, dogs or anything else that may move towards them. So when posed with this topic for July's Photo a day challenge, it needed some creative thinking.

The Gruffalo is a book that the girls enjoy reading because they have heard it so many times they have memorised the story and always giggle when the mouse says its favourite food is '...gruffalo crumble'.

Day 200: Plate

On my plate was some homemade chocolate slice which Shane and I shared while having a cup of tea this evening. I baked a slice for a lady at work and of course had to save some for Shane and myself to enjoy. A simple and tasty slice, always goes down well with a perfect cup of tea, in particular a perfect cup of tea is always one made by Shane!

Day 199 - My Addictions

I have many many addictions. Being organised, buying handbags and wallets - in particular from Kate Hill, using my beautiful camera on manual setting then editing photos are just a few which featured in my collage depicting my addictions. Notably missing from here is chocolate and tea. I figured everyone knew about those addictions.

Day 198 - Sign

This term we'll be doing a unit of work on the London 2012 Olympic Games. The Olympic Rings are one of the most featured signs in my classroom currently.

Day 194 - Texture

These bears have had a very long and happy life. They have been tugged, sucked, cuddled, squeezed and left in places I could never have imagined! However, they are what have helped the girls know it is time for bed. Surprisingly after being through the wash many times, they are still soft and fluffy. No wonder the girls still love rubbing their faces with them each night.

Day 181 - Soft

Sue knitted me this beautiful scarf from Alpaca wool we bought at the Quilt and Craft fair last year. I haven't worn it until now because it is just so beautiful. It is as the day describes as soft and very warm. I just love it. I wonder if they'll be at the fair this year - I wonder if Sue will make me some more... I hope so!

Day 180 - On the shelf

It's Winter. I love to have a wide variety of warm drinks to keep me nice and warm. Tea and hot chocolate are my hot drinks of choice. Nerida and Andrew bought me the Lindsay and Edmunds Chocolate Stirrers - I have yet to try them, not because I don't want to, but because I don't want to have to share it with anyone!

Day 178 - Where I shop

Anyone who knows me would know that I have a very big accessory collection - in particular wallets and handbags. Whenever I venture past Kate Hill I have to have a look inside, and often wander out with a new handbag or wallet. I haven't started using this wallet, it is brand new and quite beautiful. If you like handbags or wallets I do highly recommend Kate Hill.

Day 177 - Something Cute

All the girls have wanted to do this week was to have their finger and toe nails painted. When I came home from work today, Ava proudly showed me her beautiful pink fingernails. She is just too cute - she was so excited to show me as soon as I walked in the door.

What's on my mind? Warmer weather, the beach, holidays... did I mention warmer weather?

Day 173 - Where I slept

Today's topic for the Photo a Day was 'Where I Slept'. Well it certainly wasn't anywhere fancy, but I do love my bed. I prefer not to share it but sometimes, those extra bodies do add extra warmth. This is one of my favourite covers too - it is black and white with gorgeous flowers all over it.

Day 172 - Decisions, Decisions, Decisions...

Today's theme for the Photo a Day list was 'Favourite Photo Ever Taken' - well with an amazing amount of photos I have taken - in particular since the girls were born, how could I choose just 1 image. Each photograph recorded a moment in time that when viewed sparks an emotive memory. It has made me realise that I must really organise my photos into a workable order.

Day 166 - Time

Time during the school term seems to go really fast. Especially the time between when I get home and when my body is telling me that it is bedtime. I never really have enough time, holidays are not far away so hopefully i'll have more time on my hands then.
