A Maiden and a Hero...

Hobart stake dance...couple of weeks ago now...ooops...but Elle and I were asked to MC...
...the theme was Heroes and Maidens and we wanted to go as something original so we made up our own Hero and Maiden...
Presenting...
Harriet Hero...
...and Marriet Maiden...

Making the costumes was the BEST bit,

Because I can't sew...or cut straight (apparently)...I got to do my favourite thing...IRONING...no i'm serious...I like to iron...

Harriet's cape...

Marriet's Apron...

Elle is such a perfectionist...the sewing lines had to be 'just right'...

Speedsta Elle on the machine...her mum was having a heart attack...

Here's me at the iron, getting it 'just right' for Elle...if I couldn't iron straight then...hmmm

The night was a success...mainly because I kept throwing lollies out to the kiddies...and everyone LOVES lollies!!

Before and after...

So i've been pretty lazy with keeping my car clean...reason being I do alot of driving and they clean it when I get a service anyway...observe...
Before...
and after...
($370 after I might add)

WTBD 09

World teacher bum day is a tradition that was started WAY back in 2008 by three bored teacher bums...fed up with being payed out about the amount of holidays teachers get...but having to admit that bordem during these holidays can get a LITTLE too much...three teacher bums...Fiona and Tania Bashford and myself created WORLD TEACHER BUM DAY...the day we play tricks and pranks on those fools that still have to work...
...Teacher bum day is held EVERY easter wednesday...this year was a little tricky as the Bashfords no longer live in the state...but you can't keep a good teacher bum down so through the advantages of the internet we were able to keep the tradition going...
...we created a 'teacher bum' group on facebook...completed the pranks and posted videos on the sites page...
...if you wanna good laugh join the group and check it out...remember to VOTE for your favourite...

Simon: "Hallie if you take all the foil off and hold the bunny it will melt before you can eat it all" Aah the lesson EVERY kid must learn at Easter time!!

Oldest and youngest...(Jayme and Jonty)

Rohan: "Aw my bunny's heaps smaller than yours"

Sarra: " Well I can swap you one"

Sarra: "How about I swap my gold one for your gold one?"

Rohan: "No way...i'll swap my smarty one for your gold one..."

Sitting through one of Simone's Sermons...

Simone: "...and then I said well of course i'll make you a baked cheesecake with Toblerone mousse..."

Hallie: "Can I hold Jonty mum?"

Jayme: "So to get the best from your mohawk Jonty you should really think about investing in a ghd...how else do you think I get this awesome rockstar fringe look happening...oh yeah...all the girls love it"
