Challenge

Another challenge. Had to have a part of the photo in black and white and have hands it it somewhere. A bit tricky cutting the hands out but it's amazing what you can find on google.

The Cat in the Hat

This is a photo taken a few years ago of my Great Niece Layne when she was dressed up as The famous Cat in the Hat. I have always loved Dr Seuss and couldn't resist the chance to do a page with him. Sorry Dr Seuss my Chief Editor  tells me that I have spelt your name wrong on the quote. I am sure you won't mind as you are after all a quirky fellow.

Christmas Day 2011

This year we made a change to tradition and went for a picnic at Queen Elizabeth Park in Paekakariki. It was a fabulous day out and no dishes to do afterwards. The water was so warm. Very unusual for this time of year. Will definitely be doing this again.

Mum and Dad's Wedding Day



Dancers 1935

Especially for you Amanda as you asked for more Heritage. I am sure you will know but for the benefit of others Nana is second from the right. Auntie Betty is to her left and I do know the others but I don't think you will. Enjoy. Mum would have been 19.

Jackson in the snow

This was taken earlier in the year when we had heavy snow. I was also trying out another new technique that I have learned. The title Jackson if you look closely has the snow as the filling.
