A Present and a Macaroon!

Hellooooooooooooooooo!
Welcome back to my blog!
I am HAPPY!  The All Blacks (NZ National Rugby Team!) beat the Boks (South African Team.) 29-15!   Yay!

Miss H got her birthday present today from The Chocolate Counselor (Kit Kat's Mother). It is only 6 months late for her birthday...

It is the coolio-est mug!  With OWLS on it!

 Bottoms up!

 The Mother and the Boss went to the movies and afterwards they went to MacDonalds. The Mother got me a macaroon.

 See my delicious purple macaroon. She got it specially for me (Baa) because she knows that they are my favourite food!

 Thank you Mother for my macaroon!  YUMMY!!! YUMMY!!! YUMMY!!!

Love from Baa. xxx

Shaved Sheep Dog!

Hello Peeps.

The Enemy had a trip to the hairdresser's because his fur was getting matted. Unfortunately (I personally think it is not at all unfortunate and INCREDIBLY funny.) the Mother didn't clearly explain to the dog groomer how she wanted him to look. So he came back... different...

HEEHEEHEE!


This is a before shot of The Enemy.

 He's so FLUFFY!!!



And this is an after shot.

He is so...um, well...  unFLUFFY!

(heeheehee. He is skin bare!)

The Enemy (who is a boy) came back with a pretty red bow on top of his head. HEEHEEHEE! The Mother quickly took the bow off as soon as we left the groomers and refused to let her cute little boy have a picture taken with it on.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. 

Lots of love

Auckland Museum!

On Friday Miss H and I were invited to go with Grandma to the Auckland Museum. Grandma had heard that the Marine Exhibit, which is running for only a few more weeks, was very coolio.

The Lion and the Lamb.  Heehee. Above the Lion, is the places that Kiwis fought in during the 1st World War. 

YUMMY!!! There was two walls like this.  I just wish that I could eat them ALL!!!

In the Marine Exhibit, it was so coolio!!! There was this giant anemone made of  foam noodles. It was awesome. Can you spot me?

There were lots of these jars with specimens in them and interesting information. 

 

Look at the awesome shells.

Haha! Look at me, I am sitting on top of a shark!  Who is the bravest sheep in the world? ME!

Not too close Grandma. There is no glass between me and this shark. It might eat me. I am sure it would enjoy lamb chops for lunch...

 Inside the Museum was lot's of fun. Miss H, Grandma, and I had a nice walk around the side of the Museum before heading back to the train station. 

 This is the front of the Museum. You can see the Memorials for our fallen soldiers (After all this is the Auckland War Memorial Museum.) I think the fern design is really well done and looks very smart.

 Please don't light the fuse Miss H!!!  

 Hanging around in the Magnolia Garden.

 You can see the Museum in the background. 

 Phew! I am so tired Miss H! I think I will just fall asleep here under the daffodils!

Grandma's Garden Quilt!

Hello peeps!
The Mother has been busy the last few weeks making Grandma a quilt for her birthday.  She finished it just in time for her birthday on Thursday 29th August. :)

Here  is me and some pictures of the quilt. :) 

Look at all the lovely colours in Grandma's Quilt. 

The Mother used special bamboo batting so the quilt would be light and compact and yet VERY warm.   :) 

Miss H baked chocolate chip muffins to take to Thursday morning tea with the Olds.  These are MY muffins now, Miss H!!!

  Take your beady eyes off my muffins!!!   They are mine! All mine!!!

The Enemy: Miss H, that silly goat won't share the muffins...
Baa: Who are you calling a goat?
The Enemy: Please Miss H can I have a muffin?  *Does the unbearably cute look.*
Baa: Don't give in to his cuteness - he is evil!  Like Sauron! Only worse!
The Enemy: Watch it ewe or I will give you a personal tour of my mouth again!!!
Miss H: ENOUGH!!! Neither of you is getting a muffin!  They are for morning tea.
Baa and The Enemy: That's NOT fair!!!
Miss H: Well at least you two can agree on something!

Miss H's Hexagon Quilt!!!

Miss H was able to find a 1" template off the internet and so has decided to put the cushion to one side for a little long while... and start on her hexagon quilt.

Thanks to Madam Samm who pinned a lot of hexagon ideas Miss H has had lot's of inspiration. Madam Samm is doing a hexagon blog hop at the moment so don't forget to check out what people are doing.

So Miss H got everything she needed to start stitching her hexagons. She used a Fons & Porter glue pen instead of basting her hexagons.

This is one of her favourites. Miss H LOVES aqua!

I think this red one is sooooo coolio! 

So far Miss H has stitched 6 hexagon flowers. She needs over 100 of them... So many hexagons!!!

 

I have been busy doing very important things like:

Eating a chocolate cupcake!!!   Mmmmm... chocolate

And laughing at the Enemy's bad hair day.  Heeheehee!!!

Viruses and Hexagons!

Poor Miss H has been sick with a virus since Wednesday but is all better now.

Miss H has decided to start a hexagon quilt, she has seen lots of people on blogs making hexagons and she wants to try.

Unfortunately Spotlight only had 1 1/2" hexagons and she only wants 1" hexagons for her quilt. So she decided to make a cushion with some scraps first while she looks for 1" hexagons. 

 These are the hexagons.

Look at the coolio scraps Miss H has chosen. She has gone dotty!!!

The Mother made Miss H a pouch to carry her hexagons around in.

Look at the COOLIO zip! It is from Fee's Shabby Shack. I absolutely love it and so does Miss H!!!

Thank you!

I feel sore from all the virtual hugs everyone gave me (or is that just because of all the chocolate I ate...)

Thank you so much to everyone who commented. I really enjoyed reading all your comments.

 Me covered in hearts. Love, love, love to you all!

I love you too. Does anybody love me?
