Posted some of the BMX photos here in a slide show. I will create a link to a blog that will just be for the BMX stuff. Let you know as soon as it is done. Kyle scroll down for your photo.

The one that we think should be voted the nicest, kindest and coolest guy at BMX. Kyle Whittle in action at Kempton Park BMX track. We love watching him in action and know that no matter where he is lying at the beginning of the race he fights and comes through at the end (when he's not wearing jeans!)

Well a quick update on the happenings over the past few weeks.

Tarryn passed her driver's license test. 1st time. She was so excited and sent me an sms that said yay, yay, yay. I figured that meant she passed. Now she is looking for a car and wants a Toyota Yaris. I am postponing for as long as possible.

Kiara got accepted at St Dunstan's college and she is counting the months until high school. Her Cape Town trip in the July holidays to visit the family has been cancelled because the school is taking the kids on a Cape Town trip in September and I can't afford to send her on both. Hopefully she will get to meet up with her beloved cousins then.

Devin is starting his first proper exams tomorrow and I haven't see much studying happening. We will see by his report card whether he needed to do some work or not.

We had a lovely weekend of BMX racing and Devin did so well he got 2 bronze’s and a silver medal. I got this amazing photo of him when we got home, he was wearing one of his medals and riding in the driveway. I had just changed the camera setting from sport to portrait when he came zooming past me. I love this shot!

We went to Sun City for the long weekend and I celebrated my birthday with my kids, mom and one of Tarryn’s friends. We had a fantastic weekend of laughter and photo’s.

It’s been a very busy time at work with a big project going in for the new National Credit Act. We also had the terrible news that one of our colleagues was killed in a car accident last week.

The weather has been awful. I don’t do winter very well and dream about Hawaii.

Keep warm those of you in SA

Look how brave I've been, you know I do not do the experiment thing but my hairdressers were keen to play. I am still getting used to the new shade.

How freezing is it? I am totally spoilt because I get from my house into my garage and then drive directly to an underground parking at work, but today I had to actually walk outside, exposed to the elements, to get into the hairdresser. Wow, if this is May I am not looking forward to June and July.

Well, this change to the slideshow has taken me forever. At least I think I have got it now. I intend to have one slideshow for friends, one for family and one for scrapping pages. Thats the goal. I was tagged by Karen about a zillion days ago and have not done anything about it. So here goes, 7 random facts about me:

1) I read Simple Abundance by Sarah Ban Breathnach every morning.
2) I love Woolworths fudge with orange pieces and chocolate in it.
3) I always drive with my headlights on.
4) Tracey White is my all time favourite scrapping person.
5) I adore my job.
6) I follow the gold price every day.
7) I am a terrible hoarder.

Hope there are still some out there that have not been tagged, Candice, Mrs Nosa B, Allison.
