The People of Australia Need Your Help

I am taking a break from the pictures that I normally post to ask for your help.

The last count I saw, the death toll from the bush fires stood at over 170. The fires that have erupted are devastating Australia and they need our help. Please take a moment to donate via The Salvation Army or The Australian Red Cross. If everyone who read this gave even $5.00 it could make such a difference. So, if you have even a little to spare, please consider donating.

I suspect you are wondering why I am interested in this. In the digi scrapping community I have "met" so many wonderful people from Australia and they are asking for our help. I feel this is an extremely worthy cause, so wanted to ask my blog readers to join me in donating a few dollars to help those in need.

Thank you!

Jan 26- Jan 29

Okay, I am going to do a few days at a time or I will keep procrastinating cause I am so far behind. lol

This first picture is from January 26th. This is the day my DH finally took possession of his motorcycle. Needless to say I took a lot of pics of that day. I had a hard time deciding which picture to use, cause I took so many. I finally decided to go with this picture of him with the keys in hand, cause the bike is finally his.



This picture from the 27th is of the book I purchased to learn how to use my Canon XS better. Now I need to do more with it than just photograph it. Ironically, this picture was actually taken using my Kodak ZD710.



On the 28th, it was class activity day, which means each age group had their own activity. The Beehives (age 12 - 13) made altered notebooks. They had a lot of fun decorating their notebooks. Here are the three Beehives with their final products.



And finally, for the 29th, here is the same rose I photographed a few days ago. Now it is in full bloom. It is so pretty, I wanted to add it to the mix.



Okay, I'll be back tomorrow with more pictures of the day. And in a couple of days I'll be all caught up and hope to go back to doing one picture each day.

Time 4 An Update

Wow, I've let a little too much time pass since I last posted on my blog. Not sure what all I should post about. But lets start with the big news. We got David a 1977 Honda CB 750 K. He is so happy to have it. I haven't been on the back of it yet. But he wants to take it to have a little bit of work done by a friend of ours before I get it on it. He is a good hubby. Here is a pic from Saturday with him on the bike.



This past Friday, we went to see The Frog and The Toad at a local high school. We knew a couple of the young women in it. I really did think it was a cute play and Reva and Bailey did an awesome job with the choreography.

Last Wednesday, I helped the Beehives make altered notebooks. I am pretty sure they had a lot of fun. They seemed like they were having fun anyway.



I think these are the highlights of this week. Let me know if you think I missed something important. lol
