Forgot to show you

Looking at The Beetle Shack's new family photos, I realised I hadn't shared my most recent family pics, taken on Christmas day just gone. Our shoot was very impromptu, very unorganised, and very fun! I love the results, it shows the dorks that my family are. 

My neice Gypsy with my son Jesse

My brother Mathew with his wife Liz & son Harrison

My sister Kate with her husband Glenn. They have 3 year old twins Gypsy & Frankie, and a 2 year old, Bob

With Mum

My very mature parents

Mature once again

With Uncle Craig (he'd kill me if he saw that I'd called him that!) He's close to us in age so is more like a brother

A bunch of helium balloons tied to string - the only way to get all 6 kids looking in the same direction!

My husband Ben & I

With Jess and Ryleah

Too normal

That's better!

The in-laws

I love this one!

Harry loves bugs!

Gotta love timer photos!

These 2 were the best out of at least 20 pictures taken!

      Well we had fun anyway! The best part was plugging the camera into the tv later that night and looking at all the photos on the big screen - everyone had tears from all the laughing that night!

When the boy's away...

...the girl will crochet!

Yes I'm a nana, but I'd much rather be a nana all snuggled up under a blanket on the couch than out clubbin' in the freezing with all the whipper snappers. Now where's my slippers...

Blog loving

Wowsers I've found some really cool blogs lately, mostly due to them finding mine first. I really don't feel worthy of my new followers! They all seem to lead these awesome lives with ace homes and cute families, and everyone has amazing photography skills!
I'd like to take a moment to share these blogs so that others may find them and too be envious of the cool people who write them

I loved this blog from the moment I saw it! I feel like I have a lot in common with Emily, although I don't know her at all! Just love her taste I suppose!

Shhh.....it's lizeylou

Love the random posts about anything and everything! And she has a wonderful taste in music.

Ché and Fidel

I love finding a new blog with beautiful pictures, but then when 'Blackbird' by the Beatles starts playing, I'm totally hooked! Lots of lovely pictures of a gorgeous little boy.

Down that little lane

A great little blog for seeing many beautiful things! I was lucky enough to feature in a post with my brooches this week :) Check it out!

That'll do for now, as my eyes are hanging out of my head - bed calls!
