tues news

 
Here is a pic of my btp (beyond the page) entry into the Kaiser 100-1 comp - I received an honourable mention for this (which I was thrilled about as I don't usually enjoy btp projects) lol
I am going to give this to Mia's teacher for Christmas so thought I better get a pic

yesterday sat

 
Yesterday my gorgeous friend the one and only Charmane Koch (AKA Charm) and her gorgeous family travelled down to Geelong for Crop4acause at the Kaiser outlet! It was soo much fun - this girl is sooo special! The day was fab and Shell, Julie and Leeanne and I sat with Melissa Kennedy Richelle(Captain Obvious) the lovely Wendy from Fiskars,Shirl and Ally Angel well I have never laughed sooo much in all my life - I really needed that good old belly laugh! Those Kaiser girls - don't know how they managed to get any work done - they are hilarious - and the topics we covered - nothing was sacred! I managed to get 2 layouts done (I know, I talked and laughed my way through the the day/evening) so social !
We got to have a sneak peak (ooh yummo) of new papers other yumminess which will be released early next year - so girls hold onto your hats !!! Kaiser just keeps getting better and better!
I won a raffle prize!! whoo hoo and the lovely ladies managed to fill 4 baskets for hampers for 4 families in need this Christmas with the proceeds of the day going to the Leukemia Foundation - a most worthy cause.
I better run now, get into the shower and get the girls ready for their very first performance today in a play!
xxxhugs to everyone happy Sundayxxxx

Well - this band is amazing - the lead singer was born without eyes, it makes you realise when young guys like this make the most of what they have, we have absolutely NOTHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT and we need to perhaps try a little harder in our lives whatever we feel we want to achieve ...... we can do it
and we can make a difference in this unstable world - just as Rohan has by giving these guys a break into the music industry.

fingers crossed this works peoples

PROUD MOMENT

I want to let you know about a very special and talented friend of our family
Rohan - he is an accomplished musician and he has been doing music therapy with a group of guys who have been touched with aspergers. Rohan has formed a band and raised money on his own to take this band to America and yesterday they played at the United Nations and drew a crowd bigger than Bono!!!!!
Might sound easy, but imagine travelling with a group of guys (very talented musically) who do not travel easily let alone other problems along the way.
The band is called Rudely Interrupted and my online friends in America have seen all the media coverage (which has been huge) and we are all keeping our fingers crossed that Oprah picks up on the story and they make it onto her show
Hugs to you boys and it just proves one person CAN make a difference!

I am now trying to link the utube performance of the boys here - please be patient!
