Trendy Tree House - Halloween Costumes

We don't do hallowen over here, though it is slowly getting more and more popular, we got 3 people nocking at our door this year, where the first bunch accualy get all our lollies, that we don't buy but have collected from vieus gift for the kids during the last couple of months. Like there grategrandparents give them a bag of lolies and they go into a jar what then get given out to hallowen, we don't eat them so what better to do then that. Its also the time we go through and through away any chocolate that has gone past its use by date, yip chocolate gose past its use by date here. Anyways, I still got a pictuer of my darling gril dresed up as a GOAST, as they did a goast party at kindy.

So head on over to The trendy Tree house to see more kids dressing up.

Hi My blogger Frinds

So if anyone is wondering why I haven't been online for the last weeks much, is I have gotten ready to fly half way across the world to surprise my mum for her 50th birthday. We surprised her at my sisters in Dunedin, New Zealand about 4 days after we arrived here. First we were in Auckland at my dads, and since Sunday down here. We will be in New Zealand till the 21st till we fly home so probably not allot of post happening till then.

I hope to get some photos edited and on line, but I wont be linking up to anything, as time is just not on my side for that. Just too much other stuff to do. Sightseeing, we went to the cadbury chocolate factory today. That was soooo fun, love the quiz they do to win chocolates. Yesterday we were at moeraki boulders. Otherwise in Auckland we went to a petting zoo and to the Waiwera hot pools, and I got to try out my new under water camera there, also it was the first time Ms Mar decided to swim with out floaties.

Anyway onto blogging news.

A few of my photos were chosen the top photos for the August Photo Hunt Challenges

Culture or  Ethnicity

Repetition

Heart-Shaped Clouds

What surprised me the most was when I opened up The Trendy Treehouse today, and looked through the winning photos I saw that my cake photo got chosen as one of the Tara & Jamie's Favorites.

Miss reading all the blog post, It took me all day just to put all this together. Also don't forget to enter up in my 100 + 100 give away.

Trendy Tree House - Cakes

So this was the first time I made a Topsy turvy cake or whimsical. Also the first time I tryed to cover a cake with fondant, probably not the best idea to try that on a cake that isn't strait. I made my self this cake for my birthday at the beginning of the month.

You can see the bad job I did on covering it from this side well. But the next cake should be better.

Shutter Love Tuesday - Vacation

Its VACATION time over at Trendy treehouse's shutter love Tuesday this week. I haven't actually been on vacation for a LONG time, but this was taken the last time I was in New Zealand. I just love how my mother and Ms Mar are just watching the waves come in, hand in hand. What is better then vacation at the beach, when you know where you live it is winter and all cold.
