QLD & NSW Flood Victims Photo Appeal

I found this wonderful facebook page www.http://www.facebook.com/QLD-NSW-Flood-Victims-Photo-Appeal

They have over 30 photographers and counting who are registering with them offering photoshoots to families who have been affected by the flooding throughout QLD & NSW for FREE.

It is showing tremendous community spirit and although treasured photos people have lost cannot be replaced, portraits taken for them will be able to be hung in their houses to help make them feel more like home after the mammoth clean up has been done.

I have also registered to be a part of this organisation and will be adding more images to my blog as examples of my work for families to browse through so that they can see what my style of photography is like.
My heart goes out to each and every  person who has been touched by the flooding no matter how big or small the impact it has had on them.

I was not personally affected by flood water, but I have definately been affected emotionally as I can imagine many others have.

A Sneaky Post....hehehe

Just thought I'd sneak in a quick blog post while the kids are watching a movie in the lounge room. I'm sitting on my bed propped up with pillows, enjoying the breeze blowing through the window. The laptop comes in so handy sometimes...
Uh oh, someones coming....knew it was too good to be true!

Master 11 is hungry. I've sent him on his way to go and find a snack in the cupboard. That reminds me, I have couple of pictures of him all dressed and ready for his school Christmas performance. I might add that while I'm in here. He had to dress up as a ventriloquists dummy for his part. 







Miss 5 was there too, all dressed up as a Christmas Angel for her class performance as well. I am so proud of them, they did a wonderful job!



That might do me for today. I think the movie they are watching is coming to an end, judging by the noise I can here coming from out there. Fingers crossed I find a few minutes tomorrow and I will post again! 

2011

Well here we are in 2011 already! I have been so slack with my blog over the last month. My family and I had a lovely Christmas and New Years break and now I am ready to get back into my blogging full steam ahead!
I spent new year with family and met a couple of new friends while we were there too. During the night we were blessed with the company of 1 horse, 4 chickens and 3 cheeky possums.
The possums were the ones that had the most fun stealing our cheese from our platter and potato chips straight from the pack and even taking candy necklaces that had been left on the table for later by our children.

Looking quite innocent to start with....

Starting with a stolen cheese appetiser.....

Dessert.....

Hmmmmm.....I wonder what's in here.....oooooh chippies!

Although they seemed quite friendly, none of us were willing to try and take any of their stolen treats away from them as we were told they get a bit nasty if you do that. lol
