It's newsletter time again over at the Boxx. I am still contributing to the Book Of You kits and this latest one is delightful...

This page was a little bit challenging for me, since I don't really do a lot of "shabby" but I definitely had fun cutting bits and pieces up!

{Sweetest Day}

journaling: "Her happiness is simple..raindrops on a sunny day...flowers and butterflies...a kiss and some loving words. joy in the most purest form."

The double scallop fan adds a touch of whimsy to my page and the Kaisercraft pearls give the butterfly extra dimension...

Spring Fair...

Yesterday we went to two Spring Fair's!! How lucky are we?? One was for a local church and the other was raising money for kids with cancer. Both were full of colour.....

And lots of fun...

There was a boxing ring with foam batons and gloves at the first fair we went to. The kids had a great time having some friendly jousts with their mates. Ethan really had a blast. I was surprised he wanted to try... and even more surprised when they let him.... The boxing glove was literally half his size, and could only use one because he found it so heavy!! LOL!

The dads were there, right on the edge of the blow-up ring, cheering the kids on! hee!

And it wasn't just for boys.... Miss T had to have a go too!

It was such a big day for all the kids...


And too tired to hold his lollipop any longer, but too reluctant to let it go, Cam resorted to this on the car ride home!! LOL!!

Too funny! Thanks for visiting...x

Radio star...

Today Tahlia's school choir performed live on ABC Radio...

When told their singing was going out live on the airwaves and then onto the internet, the kids seem to get really nervous! :) But they did a great job and lapped up the attention!!

They sang "Shadowlands" from The Lion King. If you would like to hear it, click here. We have a dodgy, personal video too. But I won't post that since a seven year old with little interest in the whole ordeal, took it and motion sickness meds are a must!!! hee hee! Thanks for visiting..x

Are you ready for a PINK challenge? Head on over to The Boxx and check out my random challenge...

I wanted to help create some more awareness during October for Breast Cancer month. Too much awareness is never enough.... So... What better way than to stir up some pink for the gallery.

The challenge was to use only pink, with the exception of white cardstock, kraft and black pen. The theme needs to be based on strength/courage. This was even difficult for me! And I set the challenge!! LOL!!

The next step was then to donate a few $$$ to a Breast Cancer charity. I chose the Kim Walters program. Please go and check it out.

This is my layout:

And some detail...
