Lainey's Canvas Class

One of these days I'm going to actually make it to one of Lainey's crops, in fact I think it's one of my very few Resolutions for this year!! But until then I'll have to look on from afar ............. here's my version of last Saturdays class.

Scrapwest #65

It's been a while since I managed to complete a Scrapwest project. We've got a new format of weekly classes over on Scrapwest for 2008. Eva went first with a fantastic Resolutions LO (which I have yet to have a go at) and this week it was Kate's turn with a great mini book. I'm posting up my version in it's raw state, I've only managed to cover the pages so far but I'm looking forward to completing it soon, especially as I've used the same papers as Kate did, from the fabulous October Kit from The Scrapbook Store.

Crafty Notebooks

It's been ages since I posted anything crafty here so here are three of the notebooks I altered for the girls in the Camera Club.

Quad

Seo Caoilte an lá a fuair sé an quad úr - bronntanas atá ann fa choinne breithlá saige ar an 24ú ach cén áit a dtiocfaidh linn quad a chuir i bhfolach!!

Lá Nollaig

Alas I didn't get any photographs of Christmas morning this year. I think Nan got a few of the children opening their presents, and all three of them got cameras of their own this year!!

Nan, dad and Vincie were here for Christmas and we had a lovely day. After the present opening and breakfast we all went to Church where Vincie said Mass and Ríonnach sang in the Choir.

Here's a photo of Cobhlaith later on in the day playing with her Lucky Ducks Game.


Ríonnach, Nan agus Vincie ag ithe dinnéar


Cobhlaith agus Ríonnach le Polly Race to Mall.


Caoilte leis an Racetrack a fuair sé ó Santa.

Nollaig

Here we are queueing to see Santa at the Foyleside Shopping Centre in Derry on Dec 14th - Cobhlaith's second Santa visit this Christmas but she was still a little bit shy, I must post up the official photo later on :)



I didn't get a nice photo of our tree this year, so here is a photo of Conor's instead :)






On the ferry home on Dec 18th, a beautiful day but absolutely freezing!!


Third Santa Visit!! I think the shyness was gone at this stage!! Seo Santa sa Chlub in Toraigh 23ú Nollaig 2007.


Seo na bronntanais a fuair Ríonnach agus Caoilte ó Santa sa Chlub. Fuair Cobhlaith madadh fósta ach bhí sé ró-fhaiteach le dhul sa phictiúir !! lol



Breithlá Vincie. Bhí Vincie 84 ar an 24ú Nollaig. Seo é réidh leis an choinneal a shéideadh amach le Caoilte agus Ríonnach.

Dublin Trip

Oh my gosh, an lá deirneach don bhliain!! Where does the time go?? I'd better get one more blog in here before 2008!!

Ag tús mí na Nollaig chaith muid cúpla lá i mBaile Átha Cliath. Casadh Mary Anne agus Eoin orainn sa St. Stephens Green Centre. Seo pic do na páistí ag amharc ar na soilse Nollaig ann.



Thug muid cuairt ar Mullach Íde fosta, bhí dúil mhór ag Caoilte sa Mhaighdean Mhara seo go háirithe nuair a d'aithne se go raibh sí déanta as iasc!!



Chaith na páistí tamalt fáda ag amharc ar na báid uilig ag an Marina, d'aithin siad cúpla ceann a chonaic siad i dToraigh i mbliana fósta!!



Seo iad ag fanacht le dhul ar an 'Dart'. Cha raibh Caoilte nó Cobhlaith ar traen riamh roimhe agus bhí Ríonnach ina leanbh nuair a bhí seise orthu so bhí seo ina eachtra mhór daofa.



Seo an 'Santa Train' ag tarraingt isteach go staisiúin an Phiarsaigh, an áit a chuaigh muid ar bord.





Santa agus Caoilte


Ríonnach, Cobhlaith agus Santa. Bhí Cobhlaith 'rud beag faitheach' a little bit shy mar a dúirt sí féin!! (fan am a thug sí an 3ú cuairt ar Santa an Nollaig seo bhí sin imithe!!)


Ríonnach agus Eddie ar an Santa Train



Cobhlaith, Ríonnach agus Caoilte san Ostan sular fhág muid le cuairt a thabhairt ar Vincie in Dalgan.

Chaith muid 2-3 uair in Dalgan le Vincie. Seo pic do Cobhlaith, Noelle agus Vincie ina sheomra ansin. Fuair muid dinnéar galanta ann sular imigh muid linn na bhaile arís.






Stop muid in teach Conor in Leitir Ceanainn ar an bhealach na bhaile agus cha raibh Cobhlaith ag iarraidh fágail ar chóir ar bith ag am baile cé go raibh sí mar tuirseach mar a tchí tú sa pic seo.
