Sew, Sew Busy

I am looking forward to the school year finishing

just to get a break from the frantic end of

year school happenings

Miss Sophie received 3 awards at the last

school assembly.

The Acc Reader Champion award, which was a certificate

and a book (The Diary of Anne frank), she read

2407198 words during the school year, and received a 

certificate for her effort, and she also received a

certificate for completing the Premiers Reading Challenge

Then last Wednesday was Presentation Day,

Sophie received the

Dr Peter Hendy MP Literacy Award 

(a medal and certificate)

Emma received a Quality Achievement award

Imogen also received a 

Quality Achievement award

We are very proud of our girls

this is the photo we MMS to Grandpa

I haven't been doing very much sewing,

but I am doing a Cross Stitch

its been 13 years since my last

foray into the world of Cross Stitch and I am much further 

along with it than this photo shows.

I also made 90 mini christmas puddings

for the girls to take into school for their class

partys

and these balls were part of their teachers gifts

fiddly but oh so sweet

Wednesday is the bigger girls last day EVER of primary 

school, they are having a Leavers Luncheon

then a disco on Wednesday night, both requested

dresses for their disco, so we bought new dresses,

shoes and hair thingies.....

Our son arrives in the early hours of Monday morning

all the Christmas shopping is done (yay)

well except for me :(

and the girls and I are off to Bairnsdale on the 28th

to drop our boy off at the train station and possibly

do some shopping.

I for one will be so happy once 2013 is done and dusted

its been a shit year!

FNWF

For the first time in ages I joined in with the FNWF. It was rather productive but due to a cub/scout activity today this is the first chance I have had to blog about it

First up is the beginnings of a '12 days of Christmas' sampler, I'm not in a rush to get it done, as long as finished by Christmas 2014 all will be good

Next I worked on a wagon wheel block, only 2 more to make for this month

Tomorrow I have a feeling I am not going to be able to move without wincing in agony, we rode our bikes about 2 kms, then hiked up giant hills another 2kms, before hiking back down the giant hills and biking back to the cars. My feet are so sore and I have muscles I didn't realise I had 😉 

So I am hoping to get some more wagon wheel blocks made and some more cross stitch done.

Iam off blog hoping to see what everyone else achieved.
