What's up...

The last few weeks have been pretty hectic for our family... renovating (it is coming along quite nicely), party organising, cleaning (there's lots of that!) and various other commitments.

Here is a photo story of what we have been up to:

Cake assembling.

Lily marveling at Mum's cooking skills.

Oven cleaning (not one of my favourite things!)


Cool dudes :P

And drawings from the hat as to whom gets to use the NEW toilet, bath and shower first :)

Well, that's all for now; hope you are all in excellent blogging health!

Photographs

Once again, I must apologise for slacking with my blog. I haven't had much time at all for it.

One of the things that has kept me busy is a photography course that I am attending. It is for home-schoolers and very in depth! Our teacher is mainly showing us how the camera works with apertures and the like. I have found out so many things with our camera that I never knew were on it (Example 1: taking pictures black and white. Example 2: changing the ISO according to the darkness/brightness. I never even knew that there were such things as an ISO!)

In 2 weeks we have three papers to fill out, taking 15 photographs. 5 with a dark background, 5 with a light background and 5 in shade. I have three photos left to take in dark background. Well, here are a few of the shots I've taken for practice that I thought you may like. The top one was taken on the way to the class and the second was taken during.

All of the girls' feet.
