Ok. Other news...I am teaching in Italy this weekend..well I'm not physically teaching in Italy..but ONLINE TEACHING IN ITALY! for the lovely Lory at scrapbookiando.com . I am teaching my CELEBRATE YOU workshop. You can see some pics about the classes here on Simona's blog as well as on Lory's blog here
AND Kerrin will also be teaching a workshop - a very cute felt project!
The workshop is being held over at scrapbookiando's forum this weekend and Lory, thankfully, will be working as my interpreter as I know few Italian words!! It's quite amazing to think that I can teach a class online to students across the other side of the world without leaving my house!

We had a HUGE weekend.
Jake & Chelsea had a sleepover at mums Friday night and they all came in to watch Capri play netball early Saturday morning. Jamison and Ken left half way through the game to head up to Malabula for Jamison's footy.
They both lost their games on Saturday :(
My sister and kids stayed and visited for a while on Saturday. Girls played singstar. Boys played the computer. Was relaxing. Fun. An impromptu visit which are the best kind of visits!
Jamison went for a sleepover at a friends. Capri stayed with mum overnight and we went out for dinner!
We met up at the Maryellen Hotel for dinner with my school friends (well some of them as a few couldn't make it!!) and their partners. Was GREAT! These are the friends who are VERY comfortable to be with. It doesn't matter how long since we have seen each other, we ALL slip back into that easiness of feeling like we see each other ALL the time.
The downfall - the band was TOO loud. We were yelling to be heard. It was packed! But it was a fun night. great meals. I took photos. Lighting was bad so they didn't turn out very well :(
SO, SUNDAY - I headed to Paper & Stuff again at Cooranbong for the calendar class. You can check out some photos here at Cath's blog.. Got to meet Peta who always drops by and visits my blog - was lvoely to meet you Peta!! A few first time scrappers but they coped SO well and created some beautiful work!!! And it was great to catch up with Simone and her cookies LOL as well as Janelle!!
Here's the group..now you see them..
now you don't!
Stay tuned...after a few requests I am looking at organising an online calendar class very soon:)
So home again late Sunday and out again for me and Capri as we had to go to the school/church for our first Confirmation lesson for Capri. I was SO tired I could hardly concentrate in the meeting. Home again. Ken cooked a delicious stirfry which was just as well as I had NO ideas for dinner and NO inclination to cook anything!
I then curled up and channel surfed between the Logies and Big Brother. I have seen Greys Anatomy or I would have been glued to that rather than anything else. And I felt sad for Rove and sad to see Belinda Emmett and Steve Irwin on the screen being remembered during the Logies..
And I did some knitting. Two teeny tiny little baby bonnets so far, for my friend Jenny who is the organiser of a committee of knitters who donate packages of teeny little knitted items for the families of stillborn or premature babies born at our local hospital. And my mum and I are helping out with some knitting.
So that's about all from the weekend...if you read this far..BIG claps for you:))) and thank you for taking the time to do so!!:))))))
