It's the weekend! We all had the best sleep in this morning, and didn't get up until almost 9am! That might have something to do with us staying up until midnight watching movies, with Em and I getting crafty and making canvases too. I just love lazy days at home with the kids :) Em got right back into it this morning, and before she'd even woken up properly, she was back at the craft table, starting on her second canvas. She is hooked! I'll take some photos of our canvases soon, but I thought I'd share a couple of layouts I did a while back, but never posted on my blog.
These are a couple of layouts for our Sydney album. Mum and I took the kids to Sydney for 5 nights last September, and we had the most amazing holiday. We packed so much into our time there, and the kids are still talking about it!
These photos were taken on our first full day in Sydney, sitting on the window ledge of our hotel room. We stayed at the Shangri La, and our room had the most amazing view!
And here's Em with her beloved 'Buttons'. Buttons just had to come on our trip with us, and waited patiently for Em in our room while we were off exploring every day :)
And now for a little piggie update! No, these aren't our girls...these are some of our foster guinea pigs, who were rescued from a backyard breader. Unfortunately quite a few of them were pregnant, but we have been spoiling them with lots of love, and the kids adore having them here.
The kids were SO EXCITED to see newborn baby guinea pigs, and are loving thinking up names for them. Here's a couple of little sweethearts that were born last week. Emma named the little black one Despereaux (because he's got big ears), and Jack has named the little brown and white one Scampy.
And here's Coco...
We have 14 foster piggies here at the moment, who will all be available for adoption at the Australian Cavy Sanctuary in the coming weeks, so if you're thinking about getting a guinea pig, make sure you check them out :)
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
