A Very Creative Weekend

This weekend has been a the Queen's Birthday long weekend and I started it of in the best way. I was given some money to go to the Scrapbooking and Papercraft Expo with some spending money for my birthday from Dad & Shirley.
Rick offered to take the kids to work with him in the afternoon and I could just pick them up on my way home from the Expo.
I parked at ANZ Stadium and took the bus into town and then the same bus back again. It all worked out really well.
I had the best day there, being on my own. I could do what I liked in my own time and didn't have to worry about anything or anybody else getting bored, hungry etc. I arrived 1/2 hour after it started and left 1/2 hour before closing.
IT WAS THE BEST DAY
Amongst some of the things I bought were some lovely Kaisercraft OTP Projects. One of them was a 'Babushka Doll' album. I already had the Babushka Doll range of papers, so I started putting it together on Saturday night. I have it hidden because I'm going to put photos of Tyler in it and give it to her for her birthday. I think it is going to be really cute when it's finished.
I can't wait to post a photo of the finished product here when it is finished.

Sounds like a perfect day to me, I love going to things like that on my own for the same reason :)
