sheep!!

did i say it was my dream to marry a farmer??
and then wish to have a pet sheep???
HELP...............what was I thinking!!

so I do live the dream + I do have a pet sheep........2 in fact!!
Pepper + Sonny!!!
and lets just say they think they are human + think that they should spend their days playing in our garden!!

so today I quickly duck out to get some firewood + Pepper who is quite crafty for a sheep!!............pushes me out of the way as I walk through the gate + makes a mad dash into the garden!!............lucky I was smarter + ran (YES I ran) around the other side of the garage + chased her back into the paddock!!!
I think she thinks she is like 'Shaun the Sheep'..............anyone seen that wee TV programme???
And with Spring just around the corner........YAY!!!!.................it looks like we will have 3 new lambs to care for 'Mission Day' that will be coming up soon at school.

so yeah besides the sheep dramas in my life we are getting busy with the cows calving + I will be feeding calves this week!!

Kids are busy training for cross country 0r cross crunchy as Ruby calls it!!!.........atm.

The days are slowly getting longer + wow before we know it will be daylights savings!!! YES its fantastic we have had it extended here in NZ but oh boy do I feel for Kev...........as he will be crawling out of bed at 4.00 instead on 5.00 every morning!! But then again he's a huge fan of daylights saving!! And he's getting a new toy - which I know he's hanging out to play with!! Once I find a pic of it I will share.......................its a new + very popular water toy that he spied in Maui!!!

Busy with scrapping + trying to play catch up with some projects.
one of my lastest was for the DARES . I had fun doing this one. Go over + checkout the other girls...............there are some beaut ones!!!





and a LO for my DT work over at SBO

I got to play with some new CA + Tink ink this mth with a few other bits + bods.

Loved how this came out. kev planted those sunflowers + the kids loved watching them grow.

So hopefully we will plant some more this summer!




and have been trying to load up a pic of the lastest kit Vicky + I designed. (but can't get it up for some reason.......so go checkout SBO for a lookise) So can't wait for this kit...............its filled with so much yumminess!! And holy flying cows wait till you see the stamp that the very clever Miss Vicky designed!! I think we get this kit sometime this week to play with............yippee can't wait!!

Also have been busy planning my classes for SENZ. I see SBO have got them for sale on the site + I heard that some have almost sold out. Sorry not many sneak peeks due the product not here yet but you girls won't be disappointed as I have seen most of the teams other creations in irl + they are all so super talented but just not that such awesome ppl + lots of FUN!! And we like FUN don't we!!!????

oh yeah I keep forgetting I got this from the lovely Gigi about a mth ago but as we can all see how hopeless I am at blogging I never got it up + after seeing others in my list have also got one I have decided that anyone that leaves me a comment or even checkouts my blog deserves one!!


well its nice to be back in blogging land..............but I must leave to tend my batches of anzac biccies I have got cooking in the oven!!
