Pics from Australia my Son and DIL took

My DIL had to go to Australia for part of her school degree and attend a poultry conference over there. So my son decided it was a great opportunity for him to get to go also since he would only have to pay for his plane ticket, the school was taking care of her expenses. They were gone for 2 weeks and got some really nice pictures. Some of my favs I am posting here.

And last but not least the group protesting eating chicken and the bad treatment of chickens..guess its like peta here but they were doing this outside the poultry conference. This is suppose to be Col Sanders beating a chicken with his cane...lol

Digi Free Found My Blog!

My blog was featured today on Digi Free the Scrapbooking Freebie Search Engine..nice to see more traffic come this way and check out my blog. For most of my recent kits, I have also added a 4 shared link to download the kits so you have the option of using that or either going to my resources page at my tutorial site. Just trying to make things easier for everyone. I will be working on getting them all linked that way but like I said most anything new I have done has both links now for d/l.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my kits!

PS...I have another kit in the making and its looking pretty good so stay tuned...hope to have it out before too long!

My Kids Left for Australia

My son and daughter in law left this evening for 2 weeks in Australia. She had to go for part of school where she is getting her PHD. So the school is paying for her to go. My son just had to buy his ticket and come up with some extra spending money. They both figured if he didn't go with her while her way was paid they would probably never get another chance to go. I talked to them when they were leaving the Atlanta Airport for LA. There they have a 3 hr layover then get on the plane for Australia. They will loose Sunday cause when they get there with the time difference it will be 7am Monday morning Aussie time. I told them I wanted lots of pictures of Kangaroos and Koala Bears and stuff!! I just pray they will have a safe trip there and back. We have it set up where we can actually talk over the computer, kind of like skype but another program my son uses when he plays WOW (World of Warcraft, I think it is.)



Tomorrow d/h and I are going to go out for breakfast and then head up to Williamsburg to the outlet mall and the antique mall there. Taking the doggers too since they can ride in their little cart and go in both places. Heres a pic of them in their cart from Vacation back in Feb.
