White-brown-vintage.

My entry into this months challenge over at WW1.

I love this vintage photo of my Dad and I back in 1971, Dad was posted to Papua New Guinea during his time in the army. We spent close to two years living over there.
Independence had not been introduced then and my family had a house-boy by the name of Wow, he became like one of the family. My brothers tell me lots of stories about that time of our lives I just wish I could remember...oh well.

If you look close you can see a Santa Claus with a difference.

It took me a while to do this layout I'm not a real vintage person...i don't think??? But I did enjoy it.

Mangoes...hmmm!!!

Did a layout for colour challenge over at Challenge Heaven......Hhhhmmmm!
 I like but?????
Just not sure if I like it enough.....anyhow here it is

Summer colours and some paint....

Dad has a small farm in QLD on which he has 200, soon to be 300 mango trees. At the end of season he brings us a few to munch on and one Sidney lourves this event very much. I thought perfect thing to scrap about ...very summery. Put lots of flowers on as a very lovely lady showed me how to make them last w/end...thanks Annette.(Mwah!---I love you!!)


Anywho

My heart feels a little odd this week, with Rhys's departure to UNE.
The yuck weather isn't helping the situation either!
Looking forward to the w/end .

Big Sigh!

Well at the end of this week, Rhys heads off to UNE....????
I've been feeling rather emotional about this.
He is the first child that is heading/living in another city...like a whole 7-8 hours away from us/me!!!

I keep having flash backs to before he headed off to school...when we use to do things like make shake and bake wedges for lunch.....
 Watching or more like peering throught his kindergarten classroom window to make sure he was fine, on his first day of school......big long sigh!


So I did this layout...sigh!

A Number challenge at Challenge Heaven.



Sigh!


Have to go
thanks for stopping for a look!
