So am I behind the times or have orange flavoured M & M's been out for a while? I got to try some today and they are the most sickly delcious pieces of candy that I've tasted in a while lol.
Congrat's to my twinnie, Vicki, for getting herself into the BG gallery and somewhere else...but you have to go visit her blog to find out. Actually you've probably already been there!
On the work front I've been busy as a long term reliever - this basically means I'm relieving in the same kindergarten for more than six weeks. There are three relievers working together, so we're kind of muddling through - however two of us have heaps of experience so that helps and the kids and families are just great.
As most of you know, the Swannanoa Retreat was held at my house last weekend - it was fully booked out (ya know, me, Heid, and Vicki lol!). We had great tutors (Vicki brought mags with her you see!), great catering (in the form of natural lollies, chocolate bars, fizzy drinks - thanks Heidi - a smidgen of home cooking and Jo Seagars for brekky!. The spa was on and used. Oh and yep that's right we did a bit of scrapping too. Hence the layouts above. Some were for SP challenges which I've left too long to enter, one was the 'Gaye' challenge (Gaye, Vicki, Heid and I all went shopping a couple of weeks ago and ended up with the same paper - hence Gaye set us a challenge lol) a couple were scraplifts and a couple were just for the hell of it. I still have one sitting on my desk which needs a title and journalling.
We've been off buying a few plants today, so assuming the weather stays as gorgeous as it is right now, tomorrow will see me out in the garden (probably telling Lyall where to plant them rather than actually picking up a spade myself lol!)

very cool.... you HAVE been busy!!!!
Now thats a pretty impressive line up when you see them all like that - just about tripilated twice!!! ROFL. If theres going to be another Swannanoa Retreat then I want my name at the top of the list. LOL. Many thanks Twinnie - had a great time.
Just lovely l/os. Your Swannanoa retreat sounds like it was fantastic fun
A very impressive lineup there - love the translucent one! The combination of triponomy and chocolate obviously is one that needs repeating!LOL
You have been busy, looking good.
You must put my name for the next Swannanoa Retreat (lol), I'd come down!
Wow! No wonder you've been MIA! Very cute Danny LO...but then I'm biased! Looks like Riley might be going to be a daddy, tho it hasn't matured him in the slightest, still behaves like ratbag!
Love what you have done with your photos ... smudgy, blurred, cloudy or whatever, they look fab - so too do your layouts ...
The retreat sounds heavenly.
