I had a fantastic break and it's good to be back!
I have a lot of photo's to share with you.
Well December was a VERY busy month. We had visitors stay with us almost the whole month.
Friends of ours from England and then my sister in law and her daughter from NZ came to stay for 3 weeks and 1 week of that we went camping together to along the Garden Route.
We went to a place called Birds of Eden and Monkeyland.
Birds of Eden is a unique two hectare dome (the world's largest) and spans over a gorge indigenous forest. It has a canopy walk. All the birds fly free.
NOTE: all images taken by me, (forgot to put my siggie on some of them) and are copyrighted material.
South Africa's National bird is the Blue Crane
This bird is only found in South Africa and is called The Knysna Lourie. Knysna is a place along the South African Garden Route. There are different types of this particular bird.
I did a watercolor painting of this one above
Blue and yellow macaw
starling

I haven't done a scrap page in what feels like forever and I haven't done any designing since "Days gone by" kit.But check back sometime for more photo's and a fun little giveaway I will be hosting. I am also going to upload some of my older kits and Host a sale soon too. So keep this blog book marked!

You've been really busy! Gorgeous photography ;o)
I've not been online as much, mainly on Facebook. I'm so busy with my 5 kids, plus I've started keeping my niece 3 days a week. She is 6 1/2 months old - 10 weeks younger than Jonah <3 It's crazy busy, but I LOVE it!
I've all but stopped digiscrapping, and have been knitting instead. I've done some sewing, too, but need to get my sewing room cleaned up before I get into any more projects lol!
I've missed you bunches, and am so glad you are back!
Oh gosh! Those are incredible-looking critters! Nice pics!
What awesome photos - thank you for sharing! I'm studying birds with 3 of my kids currently, and am really excited to be able to share with them photos of birds from the other side of the world! :)
