Thrifty Thursday

Clay and I hit 2 oppies on Sunday hoping to find more Wimpy Kid books....and Clay found 4 for $2 each!! He was so excited :) He also found a hard cover Minecraft book $8 and we found a cute book for Torrie $1.

I found some scrapbook refills $4.

There were no more Wimpy Kid books at the 2nd shop, but I did find a Tupperware bowl in my favourite design $4 :)

Mini bricks $3

Egg container for the fridge $5

Cards

I was still feeling inspired by last week's fairy cards, so decided to make a few more.  My goal this year is to use stamps / dies / stencils from my stash that I haven't used yet- so I made the 2x heaphone cards as well :)

School Holidays - Week 5

It's been a bit slower this week :)  Monday was Craig's RDO so he and Clay ran some errands and had lunch out.

Tuesday Nanny was back - chilled day at home with swims :)

Wednesday was kids gaming club at the library again - Clay absolutely loves it!  Hoping to continue attending once school starts back up.

Thursday was another quiet day, but Clay and Nanny did catch the bus into town for a bit in the afternoon.

Friday they caught the bus down to the beach so Clay could go to a school friend's birthday - they both had a lovely morning out :)

Saturday was a day at home - Clay set up his new microscope and also looked through the set of rocks / crystals he got for Christmas.

Sunday we headed to Bunnings to do a kid's DIY workshop, then popped into 2 op shops to see if we could find more Diary Of A Wimpy Kid books. We had a swim in the afternoon.

Thrifty Thursday

Saturday morning after breakfast out, Clay and I popped into an op shop nearby to see if we could find some more Diary Of a Wimpy Kid books.  Unfortunately we didn't find any, but he was very excited to find book 1 of a series he has for $2 and another hard cover Minecraft book for $1. 

I picked up this book for $2 :)

Cards

I had a very productive last week of holidays  - I popped down to my scraproom over a few nights and got 6 cards made :)

School Holidays - Week 4

Tabs and Torrie are staying with us for a bit, so Monday morning we set up the supplies to do some crafting and then baked cupcakes. We played Clay's new pop up game and built lego.

Tuesday I finished another lego set! We took the kids to see Sonic 3 - pretty good movie :)  We waited to see if it was going to keep raining before deciding to risk it and head out to see the NYE fireworks.  It's been 5 years since our council has put fireworks on, so nearly all of Bundaberg was there LOL  It was a great fireworks show and we walked over to listen to the band playing on the stage for a bit.

Clay's friend Landon is in town visiting his grandma for a few weeks - so she dropped him over Wednesday for a play date :)

Thursday Chris and Megan stayed overnight on their way through back to Rocky. It was so lovely to meet Megan and there was lots of wedding and travel talk :) Friday afternoon Chris and Megan headed to the train station and I made jam and Nutella drops while Tabs watched the kids swim.

Saturday morning we decided to go out for breakfast :) Afterwards Clay and I popped into an op shop and brought some more books before we headed home for a lazy day watching cricket, reading, another swim and more 3D printing.

Today was a relaxed day at home.  We did pop out to drop some toys off to a friend and Clay wanted to buy some more Lego with the last of his Christmas money, which he spend the afternoon building.
