Rest in peace Rexy xx

What a terrible week, and in fact year it has been for my family and friends loosing beloved pets. My old man Rexy passed away peacefully Monday afternoon. What is making it hard for me is that I was in Tassie with the family when this occurred. Rex and Fergus have been staying with their Auntie Tanya and Uncle Adam who have been doting over them. Rexy was the best big brother to Fergus and the best dog I could ever ask for. We're all going to miss you terribly Rexy. Home will not be the same without you. "Woo woo" I love you xx.

 

On a positive note, staying and spending time with my family this festive season has been really nice. I have done a great amount of craft shopping and have also come up with a few ideas I'll be having a go at this coming year. All linking back to my 2013 OLW "create". I'm hoping to create a loving and happy space for my now only little man, Fergus and me. Looking forward to sharing our creations and wish you all a happy, healthy and prosperous new year xx

365 things I am grateful for in 2013

I had heard about this website thing called 'Pinterest' but had never looked into it. Last weekend Nic mentioned it to me and suggested I check it out. I think this week alone I have spent approximately 5 hours browsing through all the beautiful things people have posted on there.

 

One of the items I 'pinned', to one day do myself was a little journal, '365 things I am grateful for in 2010'. It was a beautifully little made album, made out of scraps (and who doesn't have a heap of those lying around their craft room?). So yesterday I made it up, ready to journal in for the new year. It's a fat little book 6.5"x5"x1.75" with approximately 48 pages contained within. I was going to go through and embellish it after I'd put it together but given its size, I don't think it'll be an option!
