Helen has her Ballet exam next week. I went along to get some of those pre-exam, sweaty, adrenaline filled moments on the camera. I think she'll do well in the exam- but I'm biased......

Landmark Birthdays

Here in our house we have celebrated a lot of Big Milestones- two of them being a 16th and an 18th Birthday. Catie turned 18 in March, Helen 16 in May. In between we had two High School Graduations and two formal Balls.
Here are the beautiful Birthday Girls!

I've finally bought myself a laptop!!!!!
I've worked a lot of extra hours as a childbirth teacher and stashed the money away. Once my bills had been paid there was enough left over for my very first, my very own laptop. No more shoving grumpy teenagers off the family computer, no more strange downloads clogging up the works- and if anyone so much as breathes near it they are in trouble- except when I need help!
So here are some photos I took last weekend in HK with my new-ish camera. I feel like a New Woman.
