This layout was my effort for last weeks Olympic competion, however I didn't get it finished in time, so finished it yesterday and here it is for your viewing pleasure ROFL! Umm I might have to pull finger and do one for the archery tomorrow since it's the last day. Will see how I go. Nearly finished Hannah's sketch challenge, will get that finished tomorrow as well, she says hopefully!
I met Mayor Tim! And he's as humourous in real life as he is on tv. We went off to the Auckland Showgrounds as there was a thing on about jobs and Southland had a stall there. Ended up that Southland had about nine stalls there. Two companies were particularly impressed with my hubby, and one of them we were particularly impressed with - so that's all good. They had a spin the wheel thing and your's truly won a box of choc's from the Seriously Good Chocolate Company, well it was that or an umbrella, HELLO, I'm going to take chocolates over an umbrella any day LOL! Now if it were cheese...
We came home and have had a succession of visitors arrive this afternoon, out for a drive in this divine weather. So that's been lovley. My DH and a bunch of them are down organising a roast lamb for dinner (should really be a bbq but too late, the lamb was out!), and I thought I'd whip upstairs and do a quick post - it also gets me out of peeling and chopping LOL! And since there's a few beers involved they haven't really realised that they're peeling and chopping...as they are to busy talking while they work!
So here's to a good week - enjoy having your children at home, doing cool holiday 'stuff' with them!

Wow Zorbing! my hubby really wants to try that - me not so keen!! looks good though. mmmmm .... roast lamb!! excellent.
Cool layout, Trace ... I like the photos matted & arranged like that.
The job show sounds really great. LOL at the chocolates vs umbrella thing ... I totally would have chosen the umbrella! ROFL! I can't have choccies at the mo but more than that, my umbrella broke and I want a new one! :-D
Enjoy your holidays!
Those choccies they make are devine! Yes Tim is certainly a character isn't he!!
Enjoy that roast - you have made me suddenly feel very hungry! LOL!
mmmmmmmm lamb- as for getting out of jobs....I'm with you - and the choocies over an umbrella...no contest....enjoy the first week of hols
I have heard about that careers expo and it is huge. You weren't tempted to head off to Australia! LOL. I would have chosen the chocs too.
Zorbing - hmmmm. I would have more fun watching them than doing it.
This layout is sooo funky, Trace! The colour combo has a real WOW factor.
Hmm, haven't tried zorbing at yet. Just thinking about it is making me feel squirmy, lol.
what a great weekend you had. Loved the look of that crazy food. I like last weeks layout so clean and fresh and its a shame you did'nt get it in on time. Sounds like it was a great day at the Southland stall too.
Cool l/o! Good luck getting jobs in the South - we really liked Invercargill.
Well we have had major rain today and trust me on this one an umbrella would not have done one ounce of good, let me tell you that ... it would have been blown inside out and some.
Seriously Good Choccies [well truffles] - yummy - especially the Bailey's ones. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!
