A BIG BIG BIG Week.....

Calling last week a BIG week is an understatement!!! It was HUGE....

The girls had their school performance for 3 days which amounted to costumes, makeup and hairstyling by parents at the school. So i went in to give a hand each day when i could in between working too...

Then on Friday night my mum celebrated her 60th Birthday which i organised a dinner with family and a couple of friends....

Mum loved her night and how we decorated everything in Parramatta colours...

Then on Saturday we travelled to Wagga for Bridget to compete in the Mounted Games. This was Bridgets first year. She was soooo excited!!!!
For this special event, i had a dear friend make some riding pants for Bridget to wear.

They had to be HOT PINK of course!!!

When we finished, it was time to jump in the car and head back to Tumut as i had a Wedding to attend. Hubby was best man - and scrubbed up pretty well!!

So yesterday, i had a family BBQ and tried to lay day for a nanna nap BUT 3 girls stopped me!!

So busy is an understatement, right!


Bird is the Word


It is time for a new challenge word!! Actually today we have two challenge words....


You & Me!!

Please create your project using these words either as the title or in your journaling. That is it! Oh, one last thing... please remember to give Bird is the Word credit in your blog. At the end of the challenge our design team will vote and the winner will receive a kit from Tidbitz In Time. We also have featured winners who receive a blog badge from Bird is the Word.

Here is a quick note from Wendy:

"I have been so excited and happy about the positive response to this blog site. It is so much fun to log on and see our number of followers increase as well as the number of submissions to our challenges! So, I wanted to take a moment to thank all of you for playing along and recommending Bird is the Word on your blogs and to your friends! Thank you, thank you!"


You will be excited to see that the sketches are back starting with this challenge!! Mary is going to be our new sketch designer for Bird is the Word. Please remember that the sketches are for inspiration only...you are not required to use the sketch to participate in the challenge.


And one last little piece of information. We have revamped our voting process! Winners will now be announced on the opposite Sunday as the challenge is released. For example, the MEMORY challenge ended today, so votes will be submitted and counted by next Sunday...October 2nd. We will announce the winner of the challenge on that day. In the meantime, I still need to announce the winners for the LOVE challenge. That will be done in the next day or two.
