I'm not LOST.

HAHAHA- well ok, maybe a little as I'm sort of stuck in limbo.
And having to ask my dear friend Bunny Wunny to post this via a *notepad* e-mail. LOVE YA BUNNY ;-)

I travelled up with Gaye and Caden when they left after their visit on the same flight to come and settle myself
in at hubby and Deon's new house in Hartbeespoort Dam ( and yeah - it's just as it sounds-lol).

More of a vacation area which is very laid back and easy going and very much like home except they seem a LOT slower here
when it comes to getting things done. LIKE INTERNET CONNECTIONS!

I'm stuck on Deon's wireless connection that is so
unstable and slow at times it goes backwards I tell you,
so it makes even the simplest things like blogging hard for me at the moment.

Poor Bunny and the great girls in the back of the stores at DSO and DSV have been dumped with everything while I try and get myself
up and running again here and my trips all over the country to help out hubby!

Thanks so much to Di and Shannon for really being troopers!
And of course I'll have to send Bunny Wunny to a spa soon to de-stress, yeah yeah, I yeah ya loud and clear- PPPHTT ;-P

AHHHH- I had such a great time getting to know Caden while she was visiting and I MISS her terribly!  She is one of the kids that you never hear cry! She know's when she wants to go to bed and lets you know too!

Shee's maybe I should have left Nathan with Gaye for the first 4 years! BWWWWWAHAHAHAHAHA. Kidding boy- you know I LOVE YOU.

I'm hoping some of the photo's I'm sending to Bunny will arrive as these were taken with my little sister Kerry the day before
we left to come up to Johannesburg.

We have so few photo's of the three sisters together- let alone with our kids!!

I had to laugh though as this one is with all of us and our *Baby's*-

BWWWWWWAHAHAHA- Nathan asked if he should pick me up??
Funny boy, funny- lol

and me playing *dolly* with Caden making sure I'm doing it right.

OOOOOH geee's, and sooo much has happened since I've been MIA!!

( stealing info from Di’s Blog! -lol)

We have a fabulous NEW DESIGNER at DSONikki from Just Passin’ Thru has joined DSO and already has some stunning new products in store. She also has a brand new kit coming out, which you can take a sneak peek at on her blog. Take a look at her store here.

The DSO girls have put together a commercial use Grab Bag for you. The contributing designers were Di, Kim, Bunny, Lou, Gaye and Lynn.

That is $6.00 for 6 fabulous products. It will only be available until the end of May and then it gets broken up.

Don’t miss it.

DSO-MAY-2010-COLLAB

And to make up for me being away and MISSING EVERYONE I'm going to give you all a little pressy if you want to use it.

It's a coupon to use in my store for the rest of the month.
I hate not being active and being able to see what you all are up too but I'm hoping Wayne and Deon will have me *revving with some speed* ASAP!! lol

Trust me, they KNOW just how antsy I am and I'm making the gray moaning- BWHAHAHAHAH.

The coupon is valid on ANY KIMB products @ DSO {grab bags NOT included,  .99 stuff wont be included either as it’s already discounted}  To take advantage this 35% off coupon, just fill your buggy and at checkout where it says COUPON (I think its step 2 of checkout) put kb-missingyouall

I hope you are all well and thanks for checking up on me guys!
I haven't gone, just finding it hard to get online ;-(

Love ya all
ME

Happy Mothers Day

Testing testing? lol, Hubby bought me a new PC and I am just getting everything set up again.

Just wanted to pop on to wish you all a wonderful happy Mothers Day. For moms new and old, for all the granny’s and great granny’s. May your day be blessed with family and love today.

Nathan helped Gaye and I out this morning by sitting and watching Noddy with Caden for a while this morning so we could get showered and cleaned up before the rest of the family arrive. Was toooo cute!

My Dad is here to cook the *Mom’s* a family lunch and I am already being shouted at as to where is this and where is that- so I’m off to go supervise-haha.

I hope you all have a fantastic Day

Huge hugs

A new Nephew and a little niece

OMG- it’s been a full few days this side, with my sister Gaye arriving just in time for our younger sister Kerry to give birth. Well to be honest we sat biting our nails a bit after we got Gaye settled in here, as Kerry really did have a long labour. I feel like a mother hen and sobbed when little Zachary was born. Yes, HE is a bouncing boy with a head full of hair!!

zac

He has the cutest little *bow lips* and looks just like his dad! lol. Congrats sis, God blessed you with the most beautiful son and us with the most handsomest nephew!

And of course with Caden here she sure keeps us busy. She has grown into such a little treasure of a girl- but man is she active and takes after her mom in knowing EXACTLY what she wants- hahaha. LOVE IT!

Yesterday *Aunty Kimmy* and mommy had to play tea party outside with *baby*

c8

Tea for *baby* –lol

c6

And Mom got *tea* in her coffee if she liked it or not- BWHAHAHA. Yup, we drank our watered down coffee going MmMMMMMMM ;-)

c4

This morning she shared her breakfast with Fudge- hahahaha. ( who in her words looks like piggy-lol)

c5

Cleaning fingers and mess is really easy when you have your own automatic hand cleaner- hahaha

c2

And yup- Aunty Kimmy is sitting here feeling like she’s done a huge work out –phew not used to playing rough and tumble anymore- I’ve pulled a muscle in my back too! BWHAHAHAHAHA. –OY, it’s nasty getting old huh?

c3

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm- yeah OK! lol

c1

MORE Aunty Kimmy- MORE! lol

Gaye’s taken her for a little walk now so I got a chance to jump on and share in my wonderful two days so far. ;-)

Hope you have a fantastic weekend! Hugs and Loves

Exciting day

Did you have a good iNSD weekend?? I missed all the good shopping bargains being off line, but at least I got to see my man and get him and Deon settled in their new home ;-)

Oh man, what a way to get back home! lol. I’m sooo excited at the moment as my sister Gaye (GS Creations) and my little niece Caden are on a flight as we speak to stay for while. It was planned timing wise for my little sister Kerry’s first baby! Guess what- Kerry is in the hospital NOW and is going through labour as I type this! lol WOW! Talk about timing huh?

So I’ve been running around since yesterday getting my house slightly toddler proof and getting food in the fridge and am now sitting with ants in my pants waiting to hear from my brother in law ( who I bug every hour- BWHAHAHAHA) of how it’s progressing.

So while I’m waiting to run to the airport I thought I would show you all the NEW goodies and things that have been happening ;-)
