Gus Is Here!

Yay! He's arrived! And he bought chocolate with him - yummy!


He was so squashed in his box lol! I took him out and gave him a drink...


... something to remind him of home no doubt!

And I heard today that Gladys has arrived in OZ! Now the fun can really start :D

You can keep up to date with what's happening with Gus at his blog here :D

Gus' Blog!

He hasn't arrived yet, but I've set up a blog for my Little Visitor from Australia, Gus! You can check it out here!

And this is a picture of Gladys on her way to the post office. She's mega excited!



Hope they both arrive safely!

Little Visitor Swap 2010

Do you remember last year I took part in the Little Visitor Swap on Craftster.org? Well they're running the swap again this year and I'm gonna take part!

I loved doing this swap last year so I know it's gonna be loads of fun this time round! Last time I sent off Eddie the Eggbert...


... and hosted Walter the rainbow dinosaur from Minnesota, USA...


...I miss him! This year I'm sending Gladys the Monstie...


... and hosting Gus the Turkey from Australia!


Isn't he lovely?! We're gonna have lots of fun! I plan on taking him to London for a sightseeing tour, Basildon Shopping Centre for some retail therapy, Southend for a stroll down the pier and lots of other places! Plus if he arrives by the 15th June he's gonna go with me to see Aerosmith at The O2 and Green Day at Wembley Stadium! Yay!

I'm also gonna be starting a blog for him, like I did for Walter last year. I'll let you know when it's up and running!

Road Trip And Birthdays

On Sunday this past weekend I went with my Mum and Dad up to Norfolk and Suffolk for the day. I love going out in the car on long journeys!

We stopped off near Norwich, Hemsby, Great Yarmouth, Lowestoft and 2 Little Chefs along the way lol!

We went on the beach at Lowestoft; if was lovely and warm that day so we took advantage of it. The water was freezing though, so we only had a paddle! I'm like a little kid when it comes to the sea side lol!

I wish my LV Walter could've been with me, I'm really looking forward to him arriving!

Today's my Mum's 50th Birthday. I gave her money towards some jewellery, a little personalized tin and an amigurumi cactus. We had take away for T. It's a tradition in our family to have take away for T on our birthdays! Also I bought myself a Nintendo Wii! It's really fun! My arms ache already from playing the boxing game lol! It's excellent stress relief!

LV Partners and Jellyfish Testers

The partners were announced for the LV Swap today; Eddie's going to America!! He's mega excited, he's going to be sent off tomorrow! Here he is getting ready for his long journey!

I'm hosting Walter the dinosaur for the summer! He's lovely! We're gonna have lots of fun; including my hoilday to Cyprus!

Two testers have finished testing my jellyfish pattern; they're both excellent!! We've had Gimpy from CrazyCristyC, and Rupert from MissFlynn, which you can see here.

Big Thanks to them both for testing it for me, and to all the testers! It's really helping me out!

Little Visitor Finished!

I finished my stuffie for the Little Visitor swap on Craftster! I decided on bright orange in the end, and called him Eddie!

Eddie is very happy go lucky, loves grapes, hates cheese and is addicted to watching Heroes!

We haven't got our partners yet for the swap, but when I send him off I've made a little book with all his likes and dislikes in it, and a history of The Eggberts! I hope my swap partner will love him, and I look forward to getting my LV!!
