Have you noticed the new music on my blog?
I removed the long playlist and replaced it with just two songs.
Those two are "Our Songs"...
Those are significant songs...
for Oshean and I...

Today is our anniversary...
We were married 12 years ago, today, in South Africa.
What a fabulous 12 years it has been.

I wouldn't have had it any other way...

What I'd like from you, today,is the name of "Your Song"...
That one special song which means something special to you...you and your significant other; you and anyone...or just you..

I'll add everyone's songs to my playlist...
And you can hear it everytime you visit :)

Hi everyone...
It's Saturday...finally!
I love the weekends...
It usually means having all my kids home...
Even though Cai still wakes up at 6h30, it's just nice getting to sit around with him and the girls while Eilam still naps
It's a bigger bonus this weekend since Oshean is not working...

Now look at this pic...
When the kids go outside they just gravitate to that fire hydrant...
And they all touch it and hang around it a bit before they move on...
Things that make you go "Hmmmnnn..."

I drew a winner for my RAK,and Sheryl (scrapshe) will have a little envie of goodies coming her way soon...
Thanks to everyone for playing along and indulging me :)

Check back here tomorrow for deets of another giveaway :)

Have a great weekend!

The view from my kitchen.
I took this shot from inside 'cause it's cold and I'm a chicken...hee-hee

I love this about Canada...
It can be freezing outside, and we can be neck-deep in snow, but the sun still shines so brightly
Can you see??

Thanks to everyone for dropping by and saying "hello"...
For those of you sharing your wishlist items with me, well I'm in a whole lotta trouble now because your wishlist is making my wishlist grow...

Now I gotta run...
Short people are caling my name.

Don't you love photographs like this?

Today we took out the little playmat for Eilam.
It belonged to Ara,and then Cai,and now Eilam plays on it.
He had so much fun trying to stretch for the dangly toys...

See that little red and white striped sleeve?
That romper belonged to Rea,and it's over 9 years old...

A fresh start

Take 3...or 6...who's keeping count anyway?

I'm back to doing battle with my blog. After encountering a few problems with updating my last one, I scrapped it one night in a fit of frustration, and vowed to never resusitate it again...

Well so much for that!

I read somewhere today that a blog is this century's diary,albeit a public one.
Then I thought to myself, "Well, I try to preserve our day-to-day memories for my kids,so why not resurrect my blog?".
How cool would it have been if my mother had kept a journal of her thoughts.I would be able to read it today and know what her world was like at my age...

I want my kiddies to know that about my world now; about their world at this stage...

So here goes...
