This blog will close soon

Hi there!
I have decided to close this blog for now.

I am opening a new one though so don't be sad (LOL)! I am moving away from just the candid type of blogging and will start a new blog dedicated to all the inspiring images on find while internet surfing.

My new blog is HERE and is titled simply 'Katrina Chambers'.

I hope to see you over there soon!

Mothers Day 2008

Here are a few random pictures of our Mothers Day with my Mum, Grandmother, Sister and Aunty (all Mum's of course!). We had such a lovely day!!!

My boys being brainwashed by my Dad to follow certain football teams!!

My niece Priya being a cheeky girl.

My pop who is in his late 70's and had a huge operation and a heart attack last year (as a result of the surgery). He looks amazing and is as fit as a fiddle!

The kiddies.

My Dad - it was his birthday that day too!

My brother, sister, Dad, Me and Mum!

Hellllooooo

I feel like I am yelling "heeellllloooooooo" as though I am in a tunnel and am so far away! I have been absent lately, but I have still be reading blogs. I still have to get my daily fix! There is too much inspiration out there to miss.

For those that have been asking, my job is excellent so far. I am really enjoying it. Am learning the building trade and that is right up my alley! Plus I am pouring over all the gorgeous photos and house plans. This keeps me busy so my blog probably will be neglected. Sorry! I will try my hardest though :)

I had another skin cancer removed from my face. Not nice at all! 4 stitches. I think I am destined for this seeing as though I have fair skin.

I am also on a committee that is organising a fundraising Trivia Night for baby Lucy, that I spoke about here in a previous blog. We have been hard at work planning this. The guys at my hubby's business (a printery) have been fabulous and created the best ticket books, invitations for the night and letters to be sent out to businesses for donations. We hope this will be a big hit to help with the ongoing medical care of tiny Lucy. Here are some photos I took of Lucy last weekend. She is very sweet!








We also celebrated hubby's and his twin brother's birthday on the weekend. We have 6 boys between us, so that was fun. We had a Freddo Frog icecream cake - it's all about the kids!!! LOL












Also here is a random photo of Cruise in his winter school uniform. Too cute!
















And some photos of the kids at swimming lessons.




























My niece Priya in the jolly jumper.

That's it for a while! Take care....

New Job

I have been lucky enough to be offered a very cool job! It's with Dennis Family Homes (most of you Melbourne/Vic ladies will know this company already). I am doing sales, marketing and basically just hanging out in the gorgeous display home!

I have a background in advertising and selling and my desire for all things stylish will be a great help I hope!

What an advantage for us as we are building a new home and of course I will design something sensational with all the resources at my fingertips!!!

New Blog

This is my sisters blog - Amie (Vintage Frills). She is very clever. I have been helping her set it up. She has lots more to come and is still rearranging it, so please check back often!

Also check out the cupcakes that our friend made with his little girl (yes I said HE - the Daddy!!!). Tickled Pink is the blog name.

Banner Image

My new banner image is thanks to Count your Blessings. She has lots of free pictures available for you to use!

Cruise playing footy

I HAVE JUST REALISED THE QUALITY IS TERRIBLE! SORRY. IT WASN'T BEFOREHAND BUT IS NOW!!! I AM NOT VERY GOOD AT THIS. ANYWAY YOU CAN PROBABLY GET THE IDEA BY THE EXCITEMENT IN MY VOICE.

This is our Cruise, who just turned 6, playing footy (Rugby League). This is only his second game ever! We think he is a star in the making haha!! He is number 10 with the blue and yellow graffiti-like helmet on.

White on White

These are a few of my favourite WHITE images at the moment. Don't you just love???

Mirrors

Who said you need traditional tiles in your kitchen? Mirrors look great as a splashback. You could easily do this yourself. Just clean with a little windex!

.....And you even have a little spot to pop your lippy on before you leave the house :)

New House

I know it has been a long time coming but I had promised a few shots from the new house. We are only renting therefore a lot of things are not my taste! However, I have done the best within the guidelines I have to work with (eg. hardly hanging a thing on the walls!). Also the house is smaller so a lot of stuff is piled high in the garage.

Plug

This is one of my favourite sellers....

Nikki at Chi Chi La La Designs

Please visit her and see the key rings and babushka dolls she is selling!! Too cute!

AWOL

So much for saying I'm back! I have been a bit absent. My kids have school holidays so it's been crazy here.

I have still be reading blogs when I get a chance. I may not be around for a few weeks because I have a few projects on the go.

See everyone soon...

I'm BACK!

Well we survived the move! I am exhausted and still have the cleaning to do at the old house. I am pretty happy with the new one (we are renting) which will so us for the next few months while we build a new house.

I have lots of blogs to catch up on I can see!!! I will also add a couple of pics of this rented house soon.

Meanwhile... Please pop over to TICKLED PINK and say hello if you get the time. Emma is one of my best friends and has 2 gorgeous girls. Of course there is nothing but pink in their house! Also be sure to add her to your blogroll so you can easily check up on all her pink goodness and see photos of her gorgeous home...

Bye for a few days as we move...

Just thought I would pop in a quick post to say that I probably won't be around for a few days because my big move starts tomorrow! I am very excited, but also very sad because I love this house, but know there are good things coming!! The new house we are renting is not as big as this house so I will be struggling to find a computer spot. So when I get things organised I will be back!

Take care...

Texy Boy's Birthday

My little man Tex was 3 today. He is adorable and such a little character. He knows way too much for his age! Anyway, we had such a fun day. Here are some pictures....


We always open the presents on our bed in the morning.



Birthday cake.




Chevy and his girlfriend PIPER



This is my bestie Ange. She won't look at the camera. Yes Natasha I tried my hardest (and that's Levi with her)!!!




New shoes.




This remote controlled digger was a winner!



Baby Chevy eating.



Long story with the cake! I usually make it, but this year was a total flop as we are moving and I ruined the first attempt, so donuts were it this year!!!







My sister (Amie) will hate me for putting this on here! She was showing off and I was cracking up. How fabulous is she?? Her baby Priya is only 14 weeks old! We hate her :)





The boxes are piling up for the big move on Saturday!
