Flowers

It's been ages since I've had fresh flowers in the house and today I was in the area where the flower market is so bought myself these lovely flowers. I should do this more often as it does brighten up the place but for now I will enjoy these little beauties.

First post (cont'd)

As I'm new to this whole blog thing I wanted to add another photo before publishing my original post however I couldn't work out to do it so am adding the picture now. This is what I was going to post of my 1st born. Also a couple more from a little photoshoot at the local bushland. There was the bribe of the McDonalds 50 cent icecream after I managed to capture some good shots. I told you they were willing participants with some encouragement. Bye for now.

First Post

Welcome to my first post for this blog. I have managed so far not to have a blog myself however I am totally inspired by reading other people's blogs who have similar interests in photography, scrapbooking, decorating and living the ordinary everyday life. It's time I caught up with the rest of the world and will be sharing my photographic adventures which are mostly of my 2 beautiful children. I am extremely fortunate that they are willing participants in my photographic obsession, for most of the time anyway.

Through reading other blogs I have picked up heaps of tips on photoshop because people share their experiences and thankfully I have advanced from where I was a year ago. It's really nice that people with common interests are willing to share with others their projects and give advice when asked. Even setting up this blog the lovely Sharon from "The Quiet Life" in North West Queensland offered me her advice and assistance if I had trouble. Thanks Sharon you are a lifesaver.

On the scrapbooking front I participated in Ali Edwards "Week in the Life" project in April which was fantastic. I was lucky enough to have 2 of my pages featured on her blog under the heading "week in the life -Part 1". When you see the picture of the anzac biscuits that's my page) I am still in the process of completing my journalling for this project but it's coming along nicely. I did my first "Week in the Life" in October 2008 way before I even knew what digital templates were so I have come along way but I still get a kick out of looking back on that book and seeing how little the kids are and what we were doing back then. If you haven't ever done anything like this check out Ali's blog.

I look forward to sharing photos of our everyday life. Welcome to my blog and thanks for stopping by. Kathy
