A new toy.....

Blogtoberfest day 5: A new toy.

It would seem that technology today is not built to last....

So when you take your old camera to the store to be fixed, sales assistants everywhere, try and hide the giggle....

Laughing at this silly woman who thinks her $300 camera that is 8 years old is going to be fixed for her.....

Thankfully i was not too unprepared for the mocking and had an inkling that this might happen.

So we did our homework and found the best deal on a digital SLR. A long awaited update to our old pretend SLR.

Now I'm walking around happy snapping random things in the house, trying to teach myself how to use it.

Let the fun and games begin....

Seeing double...Blogtoberfest day 3.

Whilst in Phillip island we visited Amaze n' things, a little theme park filled with illusions and mazes.

Finding our way out of the wooden maze.

Mr. Finn had an absolute ball, in the mirror maze.

(Pic from phone cam, bit blurry, sorry)

Could you just imagine there really being 5 of him.....it's every big sisters worst nightmare!

Check out what else is happening on this fine Blogtoberfest day over here...

Blogtoberfest, wait for me.......

So, I'm a wee bit late signing up for Blogtober fest, but the hostess with the mostess miss Tinniegirl, says it's never too late and that any one can join in.
So rather than over think it and miss a few more days, I 'm jumping in too.

I may or may not be able to follow through on the daily posts, but I will try my bestest.
So In the name of fun or possibly insanity I'll play catch up and do 3 posts today......let's get started.

Belated blogtoberfest Day 1:

Over the school holidays, we ventured over to Phillip Island for a long awaited family holiday.

Having family in Queensland we usually venture up that way and stay with family, but it's not really a holiday when you're on someones doorstep. Especially when you all have kids.

Becomes more of a huge organizational feat..... making sure that the hot water doesn't run out during the morning shower dash...that there's enough seats in the car to take everyone to the theme park and that the kids don't kill each other.

So instead we decided to pack the car to the rafters, head south and enjoy the sea air. Just us.
Twas' bliss.

High on Kizzy's list for holiday activities was fishing.

So we grabbed our bucket, rods and tackle box and headed off.


We came home with 3 fishies to cook for dinner, so there were smiles all round.


Back soon for day 2 of Blogtoberfest...... and don't forget to check out all the other fab blogs joining in over here.
