Our DT and CT calls finished on the 19th with an amazing response to both. We have chosen the successful applicants for the DT and sent out contracts etc. Our CT is still being chosen but the succesful applicants will be notified in the next couple of days. As well as the new team members, we have quite a few faces that you will all know and who we are extremely happy and honoured to have on board. This is going to be a fun and vibrant team. We can't wait to introduce our whole amazing team to you all. We are hoping to give you a definite opening date, as well as the date for our Grand Opening in the next few days.
We are getting so excited! You will soon be able to browse our fabulous new shop, buy products from our wonderfully talented designers, make fabulous LO's with those products and upload them to our gallery, join in some very fun challenges or chat in the forum, read our newsletter every month, get some FREEBIES..............and then a few weeks later we have the Grand Opening to look forward to. WOW!
We have a new fan blinkie available for the site, you can see it at the very top of the right hand column here on my blog. You can help yourself to the blinkie if you would like to display it in your signature or on your blogs.
I will be back with some more news for you soon.

Here are Some Photo's Finally!!!!

I finally got the pics off my camera, so here are a few from the last week.
Kady's birthday cake...a 'Lumberjack' cake and a pic of the birthday girl.

The rest of the pics are from Easter Sunday. We had a wonderful day with the kids and grandies. Here are the girls after their Easter Egg hunt.
Ashie and Phee had a wonderful time playing in the pond and in the dirt. The girls all have amazing imaginations and play together really well....MOST of the time! Ashie and Phee were playing restaurants in this pic. If you saw what they dished up to us it was enough to make you sick, but they thought they made wonderful food for us LOL!!!!
Bruce and Chloe played 'Upwords' after lunch. Chloe seems to be really enjoying board games now. This is Bruce concentrating on his next move......
and Chloe pondering how she can outsmart Gramps on her next move.
The girls didn't get their basket of eggs from Nannie and Gramps until it was nearly time for them to leave, as they had so many eggs already. Our eggs came with packing and the girls had more fun with it than the actual eggs........
OK, so it wasn't only the little kids who had fun with the packing.....a BIG KID did too ROFL!
We hope you all had a very happy Easter and a great Easter break!

A Quick Update

Well, my scrapping seems to be suffering a LOT lately, but it is all for a good cause.
Bree has worked her butt off , with some help from Gill and Szilvia, to get the site ready for opening. It has been so exciting for me to see the site take shape. First the logo, then the calls, then the home page, forums, gallery and x cart. It has been amazing for me to watch Bree go through such a transformation - from knowing very little tech stuff to actually understanding a whole lot of the jargon, codes etc now. I am truly proud of my girl. ((((hugs)))) hon. None of this would have gotten off the ground without her giving us the big 'prod'.
We will give you more news as it gets closer to the opening day, which we are thinking will not be too far away now. We will keep you posted.

I have received the first CD of photo's from my neices wedding from the photographer. I am just waiting for the CD from friends of the bride and groom and I MUST get back into my scrapping again.......like I need to be pushed too hard lol!!!! I am REALLY looking forward to doing this album.
I have been asked by one of my friends at work to do a page for one of her husbands friends 60th birthday, so that is another little job I need to get done soon too.

Since my last post we have celebrated Kady's birthday. Kady lives with us during the week while attending university. All her family drove down for the evening and we went to a local Thai restaurant for dinner. We came back here for coffee and birthday cake. Her real celebrations with her boyfriend and friends took place on the weekend, and I'm sure it was a much less sedate affair than the family dinner LOL!!!!

Bruce and I travelled up to Echuca yesterday (Good Friday) to spend the day with his family. We had a lovely day...barby fish fry, salads, a few drinks, chockie and sweet things, and the fact it was spent with family, reallymade it a special day.
Bree, Michael and the girls are coming around on Sunday for a barby, Easter Eggs etc. So another special day to look forward to.

No pics for you this time sorry, but the camera hasn't been used very much lately.
