Happy NYE ~ re-cap!

Another year gone! Where does the time go! This post is more of a re-cap since it is now March 2012, hehehe!

We ended up going to the Perth Zoo for our New Years Eve celebrations! This was our second time here and if you happen to live in Perth then I highly recommend trying to get your hands on the tickets for this year! It is such a great night, not just for the kids but for all ages! The animals are awake until 7pm and they have an early count down at 9pm with fabulous entertainment!

So as a last minute project, I raced to our local Target and picked up a plain white T-shirt each for the girls, I think they were only $5 each, and then stopped in at Spotlight for some fabric paint ...



 Sparkly of course!

And then I took to the t-shirts and added some new year's eve festive cheer!


And let it dry for a couple of hours ...


Ta daaa! I thought they looked great! Quick, easy, cheap and fun!

But ~ unfortunately I didn't listen to my inner self ... "Iron the paint before you wash them ... Iron the paint before you wash them !!!" No I did not listen ... Instead I just threw them in the wash, and they came out like brand new ~ only a couple of splodges of paint left ... oh well! They enjoyed them, I enjoyed them and now I have 2 blank canvases!

Well, that's it for updates today! I think I did ok!

Sunshine Subway

Our littlest Miss does a lot of singing ~ as most toddles do I suppose! But one song that she has learnt and one that I particularly love is "You are my Sunshine", and when your 3 year old sings it, I love it, and her, even more * Mummy loves you baby girl! *

Anywho! Since she was singing it so often, I thought I'd capture the moment with a bit of subway art ...


Since this was done way back when in December of last year { oops! } she has now moved on to another song, not quite as cute but great just the same, our Australian national anthem ~ I will have to record her singing it one day with her 'new' lyrics!
