After a great class with Lance from Rusty Pickles last night and then glued to the Ten Seconds Studio DVD until 2am, we finally got on the road to Mornington. Jen forgot to bring her hat, but thankfully didn't forget her glasses.

We warmed up our credit cards at Paper2, then after a slight detour found the first antique store. There was lots of ooows and ah's as we moved around the big warehouse finding all sorts of goodies. When we came to pay Jen had spent $69.00 (say no more) and I had spent $69.50!.

We refuelled our energy with a yummy toasted sandwich, some fruit juice and a slice of apple cake to die for (each), at the cafe next door before we took off to the coolstores.

Again we found loads of treasures and agin we spent within $1.00 of each other ;-)

I can't believe what a difference the mirror has made! Still not 100% happy with the floor.


But other than the floor and a fancy push up tap for the basin - it is DONE!

I thought perhaps I should add a photo of me with my brother and sister and brother-in-law and the bride and groom...

My nieces wedding today. It was cool, much cooler than yesterday. She looked gorgeous and her new hubby was very handsome in his suit. My great nephew Anthony is getting very tall, but he was pretty shy for the most part. The lillies were included in the flowers as it was the anniversary of the grooms grandfathers death.

Well it is a bit warmer today Thank Goodness. Yesterday was FREEZING! This is a "puddle" near my sisters front door.

My foot is quite a lot better, although still sporting a rather large lump where the case hit it. The swelling and bruising are all but gone.


It has been SO wet! My sister and I both bought new footwear to wear tomorrow!

I bought a stamp within an hour of getting through customs :-)


Here are some photos of my sisters kittens and some stuff I bought in an old antique/junk shop today
