Photos and Funny Stuff!

Wednesday I met my sister at the park where Nathan and I got married to take photos of her and her delectable babies! 

They were SO cute.  Wild and crazy but oh SO fantastic.  I got some GREAT photos of them that my sister is giving as gifts for Mother's Day.

I got lots of cute photos  and we looked in the ponds and there were HUNDREDS, maybe thousands of little tadpoles in the ponds.  I actually took my kids back later to catch some so we could watch them turn into little frogs and then let them go.  I didn't know at the time that is actually illegal to catch tadpoles.  Anyway. 

So, it's pouring rain and muddy and all I took was a bucket, so it was ME on my tummy, in the gardens on the side of the yucky pond dipping in the bucket catching tadpoles and all I got was THREE!!!  Anyway three was enough!

So we carefully took them home and placed them in a little fish tank ready to witness the miracle of nature....

Thursday morning, I gave them some food and later that day noticed they had grown a bit.

FISH

Oops seems our tadpoles were actually teeny weeny goldfish!!!!!

Roflmao......it's all good, they've grown again already and we're still witnessing the miracle of nature - only a different one!  Once I get the water to settle I will take some photos so we can document their growth.  How funny though!

I did my second Mother's Day class at Simply Said on Wednesday night and I got THE best treat from Marie!  We received chrysanthemums, chocolate at the class AND champagne!  Woohoo thanks Marie and Happy Mother's Day to us!!

Today I lunched at the pub with a new friend and it was lovely to see her and get to know her more.:) 

And this afternoon I had a wonderful time teasing my kids as I picked them up from school knowing they had Mother's Day presents from the stall hidden in their bags.  Maddy badly wanted to give hers to me - it was gorgeous!

I'm still busy busy busy as always but it's all good.

Alexander's basketball team won tonight 28-8.  I was so disappointed because I didn't go.  Maddy was a bit off-colour so we stayed home.  I love watching his games!

Happy Mother's Day and hope you have a great weekend! I'll be scrapping my heart out!
