Welcome to Taking The Scenic Route. this a photo project for 2010 undertaken by Liss - A Memory Forever.

Taking The Scenic Route, is my little spin off from the standard 365 project. Documenting the things I do , the things I see, the people I meet and the attention to detail along the trail. Not one moment is any more important than the next, just enjoying all that comes my way and looking back at the end of the year on the journey that was.

Pampering Fun

Beaty Spa invite
Organizing a birthday party
Taking photos, making invitations
The theme is Day Spa
Plans for 4 friends
4 young girls
To spend the day painting nails
Foot massages and making facial masks
A lounge room floor covered in cushions
DVD’s, popcorn, home made pizza and Nachos
Candles and cake
Tote bags filled with goodies for each girl
Lots of chatter, mum not being able to get a word in
Giggles and fun
Strengthening friendship with a day of pampering
This is how she has decided to spend her 10th Birthday

The up and coming party is in a few weeks but I’ll be sure to share some photos.

Oh my, does this thing still work?

… Can anyone hear me... anyone. Hello, Hellooooo, hello, Hellooooooooooooooooo

I truly will forgive you if you have forgotten who I am, heck I struggled to remember my own password logging back in.

No guess for where I have been, processing wedding images has kept me away.

I also successfully completed my photo a day project you can check the all images out here.



I’ll be visiting blogs very soon, just a little bit daunted by the amount of catching up I have to do. It’s time for bed now but I’ll getting cracking and try to say hello to you all tomorrow night.

How Simple

27/365 - sand digger

Happiness comes with acceptance of our own circumstances and appreciating what we have. For us to be happy we first must be grateful.

Here are some simple things in my life that I am grateful for

Sharing Thai curry’s with my dear friend Miss Potter
Discovering the art of photography
Photo outings on sunny days
Photo outings on rainy days
Meals outside on the deck in the warm evening sun
The blanket of stillness that covers my house when the children are sleeping
Any words my son speaks
My children being blessed with the ability to learn, regardless of the rate
The laughter and fun we share as a family
Kisses, hugs and the words “love you mum”
My dreams and goals. Even the ones I may never reach as they always give me something to strive for.
Having everything I need even if I don’t have everything I want.

Christina from Soul Aperture is hosting the simple things and for every blog that participates she is donation $1 to the Doctors without Borders organization to support the victims of the Haiti earthquake.
