Thank you for all being so supportive through the transfer phase of our Website/Blog upgrade..

As you can see the Blog is 98% finished..  Website is on the way…

Classes for the Scrapbook Expo are filling fast, at this stage, I believe there is only 1 or 2 places available in are Saturday classes EDIT: –  Saturday – Creative Steps is BOOKED OUT, Monday is also the last to book out, so if you have a group-this would be the best day..  

Weekly classes are going well, we are working on our next Photography Day and Mini Trash The Dress Session, if you are interested, please send through an email.  I really cannot explain how much fun these days are…

My boys indulged me last weekend allowing me to take a few photos of them – mainly for the “praying for Beau” shoot for Rachel, but I did manage to get a few shoots for us as well – check this one out… (I also used this on the banner-loving this Ugly Chair)

Hellooooo

I am not sure if we are Live yet-just ironing out the bugs..

Hope to see you soon..

RIP Beau.. 25-04-2009

Rachel Richter, photographed baby Beau in October 2008 on behalf of the Australian Charity of Child Photographers.
Beau has Type 1 SMA Babies diagnosed with SMA typically do not live past 12 months of age
You can visit his Facebook page here.
Beau is 10.5 months old and really struggling, Beau lost his battle this morning

Rachel was/is organizing a gallery filled with “I’m praying for Beau” photos.

Here’s where you come in…. (from Rachel’s blog)

Take a photo that includes the words “I’m praying for Beau”. The creativity is up to you.
Your photo to represent you or your family or your home etc. I want to get photos from all over Australia…the world.
You could have your child hold up the words on a sign. You could write the words in the sand. Your could draw them with chalk on the concrete.
You could sky-write in a plane….okay, maybe not, but you get the idea
Your photo does not have to be a work of art – it’s the thought that counts.
If you could PLEASE spare the time to take a photo, I would appreciate it greatly.
You can e-mail your photo to – rachelrichter@optushome.com.au or upload direct to Beau’s Facebook page -here

From our family to yours,

Mel
