A dot point version of What’s been happening since Spring here:-
We just celebrated the New Year with family friends food & sunshine!!

I was totally spoilt with love attention & presents this festive season
The boys are growing up & still enjoying hanging out together a lot
Makulu Sunrise house is for sale & the shop will close in 2011
We survived all the Christmas Pavs & huge Ham (Ham is in its bag in the fridge – getting smaller as the summer school holidays progress)
A few families at our playgroup have new babies!! Well done all can’t wait for lots of cuddles in 2011.Our Playgroup is moving to the Uniting Church Hall after 5 years at Apollo Bay Youth Club big clean & sort next Wed 12th at 10am ALL WELCOME
The boys & I saw the Myer windows & ran around the inner city for less than 24 hours in the week leading up to Christmas including a visit up to the Skydeck, the Witches shop & Haig’s choclate
My brother nearly has a new house in Point Cook
My mum has 2 new knees & can now walk without pain

How exciting to sell your work – fabulous. I love the one you have pictured. I am sorry we didn’t catch up at the Hergy’s. Maybe next time. I am in a drought re craft projects. I just can’t get inspired. I want to make some wooden jewellery, but can;t really find the stuff I need without going to toooooo much effort!
I am looking forward to catching up at some stage during the year, and hopefully it will be much sooner than later:)
Love to the family. xxxxxxxxx
