❤Hedland Senior High School Masquerade Ball 2010 SOOC❤

THIS IS A TRUE STORY

the year 11 & 12 ball

a masquerade ball~diamonds are forever~

coincidentally the 'He-Devil's' birth stone is a diamond!

the 'He-Devil' AKA Josh and his ♡date♡ Miss K.

{don't tell anyone but the older he gets the more Josh reminds me of his late father and it's candid moments like this that bite at my heart a little because I see his father looking back at me and wish he was here to watch his son grow into such a fine young man}

for the best part of three and a half years they have had eyes for each other

and others have witnessed this little 'dance' between the two of them

it's cute to watch them muck around together

she moved to town a little over three and a half years ago

{{it wasn't long before he whispered to her

that he thought he might just have a little crush on her}}}

they had moved thousands of km's,

from the same city in fact that we hail from,

but it wasn't the only thing they had in common

...another coincident, one that 'weirded' them out for sometime...

was the fact that almost thirty years ago her aunty was my good friend at high school,

and I had a crush on her aunty's brother((we actually snogged, once!))...Miss K's FATHER!!!

TRUE STORY

'my mum kissed your dad, my mum kissed your dad'...... eeewwwwww!!!

TRUE STORY

'tee-hee'...it's still SO weird!'

but try as they might to deny it sometimes

each clearly has a soft spot for the other

i was glad they let me tag along for a little while

glad we got to grab a few shots lit by the gorgeous Pilbara sunset

glad to see my boy growing into such a fine young man

with a gentle romantic heart, that he desperately tries to hide,

but fails miserably with that attempt at concealment sometimes {{{mother smiles widely}}}

.........naaaaaaaawww.........

♡♡don't this just melt your heart♡♡

and to top off the start to the evening

friends turned up in their 'Hummer'

to deliver my baby boy and his girl to the ball

{{{{sigh}}}}

wanna know what he's singing to her ???

{{{SIGH}}}

quiet apt really...oh if you only knew how much this boy L♡VES to sing

...we do things in grand style here in the Pilbara...

Oh Yeeeeah Bayyybeeee

and listen to a whole heap of other TRUE {mostly} STORIES

This week Rach puts me, somewhat awkwardly, in the spotlight

ALL BECAUSE I FOUND A LITTLE EYE CANDY THAT IS VERY VERY ADDICTIVE!

Like pistachio nuts. Pistachio nuts! Addictive?

If you don't like pistachio's you will not get this...

Have you EVER been able to have just ONE pistachio?

...plink! Ahhh, now you get it?

Addictive...Volcyum IS my addiction.

Tuesday Tease....True Story

Short But Sweet

True Story Tuesday

I went on a brief sea-side holiday with my family.

I normally pack everything EXCEPT the kitchen sink,

with grand ideas of doing SO much more.

I inevitably come home from holidays

feeling like I've somehow failed myself

for not achieving more in my 'break'!!!

So this break, I gave it up...I let go, I just let inspiration come to me.

I welcomed in with open arms

I have been having withdrawals NOT doing any art that was for me...just me NOT a bunch of other peoples children,

instead of nurturing the child within...

my own inner child.

I even played with my camera..me, my camera and my wireless remote :0)

So this time all I took were two pad, one black & one white

A white chinagraph pencil.

I black and white paint pen

and a fineline black marker!

Water paints in a tin and a few paint brushes.

The water paints and I didn't really 'gel' on this break

HOWEVER

The Chinagraph pen and I had fun :0)

It was nice having inspiration at my doorstep :0)

Can you spot the inspiration for the

second picture in amongst

this flotsam and jetsam??

I went away on a short break

and I actually did a little bit of art.

TRUE STORY!

Pop on over to

Once Upon A Miracle

and see what tales others

have to tell Rachel and Mr Daddy

Thanks For dropping by

Cheers
