Wednesday: What I saw through the lense....

Hello everyone,

I seem to be chasing my tail this week...just busy with the 1st week of school starting and then getting organised to leave tomorrow for my sisters wedding this weekend at the Sunshine Coast (so excited!!!!!!).  So my camera didn't come out much today other than photographing last minute layouts for next month, so I thought I would share with you some sneak peaks amongst others!!

My shoes and clutch for the wedding.... oh how I adore high heels!!


My gorgeous little boy on his 1st day of Prep.... so proud of him :)))))




Best bit....Daddy had the day off (because of his weekend shift work) and was able to share in his excitement and take him to school!!!


Just a few sneaks....






And to top the week off, this morning I approached Riley's Prep teacher and told her that Riley will be away for a couple of days due to my sisters wedding and she said after a bit "Oh that that's a shame...I had chosen him as STUDENT OF THE WEEK this week (very first week of school!!!!), awards given out on parade on Fridays on front of the whole school!!!" I nearly burst into tears!!! Apparently he has taken a lot of his class mates under his wing and especially those who were sad to leave their mummy's and gave them lots of cuddles and told them not to be sad, that everything was going to be alright.  She said he was so bubbly to have in the class room and always made the other children laugh and forget about mummy and home!!!

So so so so proud of him...he may never be a top academic student (but then again who knows) but one thing I know he will always have is a HEART of GOLD!!!

His teacher is keeping his award till the next Friday to hand out on parade!!! Watch out for a photo or two!!

Okay, still have lots of packing to do, so best keep going.  I know I haven't visited in a while, due to the busyness January has been for me and plus whenever I have tried BLOGGER has been playing up...so when I return I will do a big catch up!

Till then...
Thanks for visiting :))))
