A Whiz Through the Past Few Weeks . . .

I'm baaaack .
Phew , been busy ! But a quick catch up should put things right . . .
The Winter Carnival was great . 
With stalls . . .
 and treats . . .
 and games . . .
and rides .
But the best thing about the day . . .
The weather fined up a few days before, so the oval was dry enough to get all the rides , stalls and equipment in , and the day was dry and clear. *sigh of relief*

On the home front , the art wall is finished !
We are really happy with how it turned out . Hubby was a bit unsure about the whole deal , until I told him what I was planning as a pretty cool art collection. What better to surround a TV than lots of images from popular culture - taken from some of our favourite books , games , movies and , of course , television shows ! With the help of Etsy , fansites like fanpop.com and my own creativity , I came up with enough postcards , maps , prints and cut-outs to fill all my frames, so now the lounge room looks like this . . .
instead of this!
If you're as old as me , you can probably recognise most of them ! Here's a quick round-up just in case .
In this section it's Doctor Who and The X-Files . . .
Ghostbusters and Back to the Future (sorry about the reflections!) . . .
Let's not forget the Big Bang Theory . . .
Game of Thrones (otherwise known as A Song of Ice and Fire series) . . . 
Skyrim . . . 
Harry Potter (again, the reflections! Sorry) . . .
and of course, Star Wars .
 I love it!

In other family news, we have had a couple of musical events, sports day and the local show -

and on the organisation front - my fabric stash and sewing gear has been sorted , culled and is all tidy !
And that's it. All caught up.
