So Busy

The last two weeks have certainly been action packed!! It has been great spending time all together, something that doesn't seem to happen very often nowadays. We wanted to go away somewhere so ended up booking to go to a Haven site in Devon, we had never been to a Haven before and so we were a bit dubious but we all had a great time. It was helped by the fact that we had brilliant weather!! Both girls really enjoyed the activities that they did especially the Water Walkers which were so funny to watch.

The girls had a go at the jousting, it was actually quite high up and Rebecca wasn't that keen (even though she loves climbing!!) It was really funny watching them and lovely to see them having fun together.

We went into Exmouth one night and found a lovely Chinese restaurant, the food was great!!

Rebecca in the water walker, this was her second time and she had mastered standing up and just about getting the ball moving. They both did really well, I couldn't have been zipped up inside there!
The day after we came back from Haven we went up to Paultons Park, it was a great day out and the rides were actually quite good. Justin and Rebecca went on the Go karts, Justin got very competitive!!

I have been enjoying doing some scrapping this week too, I started this layout before we went away, it is a scraplift of a layout in Augusts scrapbook trends. I love these papers, I am not usually a bit fan of K&Co but these Charlotte papers are such a beautiful muted collection I have used them on 3 layouts so far.

I really like the corrogated card on this layout, it is so easy to use as well just tear off a section of a pizza box, rip of part of the top paper layer and then paint on the covered sections that you are left with. I think it adds great texture to a page.
