Weekend went Quickly

My weekend went quickly....

Netball on Saturday was first-both girls lost their games but they enjoyed it and the loolies after the game!

We then had visitors for a couple of hours, and then ventured out to a farm to get some wood. That was after getting some cows in the yard and feeding them later...the girls loved this part.

Then on Sunday, i made my way to Kim's to scrap with Jan and Kim....great day....lots of chatting and i did scrap....here is my creations.....
