July 30, 2011

Since I am currently at Nuffnang’s Blogopolis conference, learning about blogging from other great bloggers, I thought it only fitting that this Saturday’s links should also be about blogging.

Printable Folded Gift Card.

I am guest posting over at the fabulous Planning With Kids blog today, sharing some printable Christmas tags.

The Magic Word…

July 28, 2011

As I picked my girls up from last weekend’s birthday party, the birthday girl’s Mum stopped to say how well behaved and polite my girls had been, always remembering their ‘pleases and thank yous’.

July 23, 2011

A big truck drove up our long drive way the other day, and it wasn’t carrying building supplies! It was carrying two books for my kids and I to review, Kids’ Crafternoon – Paper Craft and Kids’ Crafternoon – Sewing. Both books are edited by the lovely Kathreen from Whipup and published by Hardie Grant [...]
