Scrapbooking Made Simple

I love the challenges scrapladyb posts on the Monday Blog challenge on the 2 Peas Board . I LOVE comedians , both male and female. I will choose a funny book or movie over a love story or scary story every day of the week. In fact when I did the "which twelve people would you have to dinner" quiz only four of them weren't comedians, but one of that four is a good comic actress. So my penchant for everything funny brings me to my favourite comedian ..... Now I love the work of some very fine Australian comic's and some outstanding Americans.... BUT for my money it's Billy Connolly all the way! I laugh so much when I watch him, I've even fallen off my chair. My husband also finds him funny but unfortunately he can't understand a word Billy says (it's the accent you know) so now he lets me watch him and then I go repeat all the best bits for him.

But most of all I love the saying I used "Every child born into the world is a new thought of God, so ever fresh and radiant possibility" (not sure where it's from but that's how I feel about my baby! I do ADORE her .... even when she's hidding her face and refusing to take anymore photos'!
