What Matters Most?

AHHHH…. well this one was an easy one for me to answer… My boys (Wayne and Nathan), my family (blood related or not) and my friends - (both online and in real life), my faith, my pets, good health, hope and happiness.  Love, laughter and contentment.

Oh, there is a lot more I could add to that list for sure- but for the most part that is what matters most to me. I’m sure your lists look very similar to mine ;-)

So I jumped at the chance of designing this collab  “What Matters Most” with Jady Day Studio’s when she asked . What a honest awesome theme as we all scrap our memories and pages about what always matters most to us.

*grab that coffee- lots of eye candy to see today*-lol

My darling putty tat Roxy, who I am missing BADLY!! She apparently keeps Nathan up all night meowing (hee hee) as I’m not there to sleep with anymore- sob!

She’s not a young kitty and that is the only home she has ever known - I’m a little scared to bring her up here as I have heard that kitty’s try to find their way home?? Does anyone know if that’s true? I’d LOVE to bring her up here- just really don’t want to loose her either- KWIM?

And because you got all the way down here-= hee hee, Friday posts are sure getting longer and longer. I have a FREEBIE for you that I made for the DSO Colour Challenge! YAY!!!!!

Sneak and more photos

Well yesterday I landed up in the doc’s for a while going over my blood tests taken last week. Turns out some of the “counts” where a little out of wack! hahaha- NO sh-t Sherlock! At least my hormones are normal (well not according to Wayne- hahaha)

I’m now on enough meds to turn my pee yellow for a year- I swear! lol. But I must admit- even after one day I am feeling much better! WOOT! Lets hope it just keeps going that way and I can spring from the ceilings again SOON! LOL.

Can you believe it’s Friday tomorrow! sheee’s this week has flown.

I was asked to collab on a kit with one of the designers at Scrap Matters, Jady Day Studio’s! WOOT.

sneakpeak

If you like “pretty” then make sure you stay tuned tomorrow ;-)

I showed you some of last Friday’s photo’s and thought I would share Saturdays too.

We went to the Spier Wine Farm in Cape Town for lunch- at a place called Moyo. OMG, it was STUNNING!

U2-Feb11 095

Set in trees all the tables are outside under the oaks or up in the trees in sort of Tree houses! We had a table up in the trees!

U2-Feb11 096

Charmaine and Donald standing at the bar where it was cooler, waiting to be shown where we were sitting.

U2-Feb11 097 

WHEEEEEEEE- we were right at the top of these stairs- YUP, tree house time for us monkeys! hahaha

U2-Feb11 112

You get your face painted with traditional markings before you begin too.

U2-Feb11 123

Deon with his cat paws on his forehead- trust me he got ripped off with a more descriptive “version” the whole day! BWHAHAHA

U2-Feb11 116

Even Wayne who is the most conservative out of all of us had his done! I think he looks too cute like that! lol

U2-Feb11 128 copy

The Gang with our faces all done! and of course the glasses are now filled too.

U2-Feb11 134 copy

Roche joined us later in the afternoon – WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, the girls all together again!

U2-Feb11 137

And it wouldn’t be the same without Roche’s SPEttTHIAL face! hahaha.

We were eventually asked to remove ourselves from the tree house as we were sitting there yakking and eating for so long. They had to set the tables for the night bookings! HAHAHA- We landed up at the bar until late. Thank goodness for a bus! lol

And doing some CT enabling- Design by Tina also has a brand new kit out tomorrow-

sneakpeek-6

Hope you have a stunning day further and GO SOUTH AFRICA!!!! Yup, the cricket world cup is on and we are playing the West Indies today- so far it’s going well.

GO BOYS!!! lol

Tuesday 22 February 2011

I’m back

WOOHOO- did I have a blast! And came home minus my voice!

Yup – not even a squeak left- nada, nix, nothing!!. My poor sis (Gaye - GS creations) and my Dad phoned to see if I had fun and was home safe yesterday- BWHAHAHAHA, my dad was ready to put the phone down as he couldn’t work out who was on the phone and he was adamant that it was KIM’s number, but who the hell answered it - BWAHAHAH. The more I shouted the worse a “squeak” came out. OY! Gaye just killed herself laughing and sent me a mail instead.

Oy, what I do to myself – I just can’t seem to help it-lol!

U2-Feb11 007

Friday morning at the apartment- we had a view of the whole bay!

U2-Feb11 010

Wayne doing what he likes best- having a beer and putting his feet up to watch the goings on in the streets and beach-lol

U2-Feb11 016

Charmaine showing us how she was going to meet Bono- which had us in stitches ;-)

It was boiling hot and we all landed up swimming in the little pool that sort of flooded out my bedroom downstairs as uhum- we over filled it to run over the back- Hey it looked pretty cool at the time - until you put 7 people in it! BHWAHAHA

U2-Feb11 020 copy

WHEEEE_ concert time!! Loryn and Ant all dressed and ready to go.

U2-Feb11 022 copy

The long walk to the stadium! That map of Deon’s was useless as they had closed off all the roads for the day and you followed a fan walk in- was great fun walking in the “atmosphere” and this was still early in the evening- oh and yes a couple of tequilas and beers along the way made it more fun-lol

U2-Feb11 023 copy

WE’RE Here and we made it! WOOOHOOOO!

U2-Feb11 033 copy

Being inside the stadium early left us some time to “sample” the beer tent!

U2-Feb11 034 copy

And we lost DEON again when we arrived- the crowds were huge everywhere and he decided to go in a different gate! BWHAHAHA- we need to get him a choke chain next time around! But guess where we found him- uhum…. BEER TENT which is where we all sat until the first act came on.

U2-Feb11 051

The stadium was VERY impressive and I haven’t been in such a crowd of people EVER! This was the opening act- Springbok Nude girls a South African band.

U2-Feb11 049 copy

Charmaine shouting BONO!!! lol

U2-Feb11 054 copy

U2-Feb11 053 copy

Ant and I bought these little flashing light glasses waiting for U2 to come on stage. Omg, they were so much fun and we eventually broke the arms on them as we waved them in the air to hard. LOL

U2-Feb11 055 copy 3

The clock at the start of the main event- U2, well actually it’s just 360 Degrees. The stadium is now near capacity crowd- was really amazing to see it so full!

U2-Feb11 066

The start of the show as they walked on stage ( not the best photo but I was being bumped by Ant - bWHAHAHA)

U2-Feb11 069

The lighting and effects even had Wayne and Deon going- WOOOAHHHH! By this time Ant, Charmaine, Loryn and I were jumping and screaming like loons!

U2-Feb11 070 copy

Love this silhouette! and uhum that would be about the best I could get as we weren’t allowed “professional looking camera’s”- only point and shoots and phone camera’s . But I got enough to remember the concert and the weekend by! hee hee.

Lots more from the weekend but shoooooo- you’ll be here for hours listening to me ramble. lol

I didn’t get to show you Ruth Melody’s brand new kit on Friday either due to me not being here - OMG, this is just toooo pretty!
