Anzac day long weekend & several breaks!

What a long weekend we had! It was the anzac day long weekend & we had our weekend planned. On saturday we went shopping & J wanted to go to his new friends place who lives up the road. The family just moved in recently & its a rare thing to have kids my kids ages in this area so was excited for him. He had a great time. Sunday was anzac day so we had planned to go to the anzac day ceremony & then J was to spend the night at my parents & go to the Fremantle dockers game as it was a late one.
After getting kids to bed on saturday night we were watching tv when the phone rang...i hate it when the phone rings after 9pm as you know its never good news...no one calls at that time unless something bad has happened!
E answered & you could tell it wasnt good...mum had fallen over & had broken some bones in her arms & shoulder....she was at a hospital & they were thinking of surgery.

The next morning i rang the hospital ( they wouldn't tell me anything the night it happened) and i spoke to mum & she was being transferred to a closer hospital to home. Knowing she was ok we headed off to the Anzac day ceremony at the local memorial hall. The kids watched the parade come in & we watched the ceremony & as usual each year i seem to forget to take a bunch of flowers to lay down ....but i do hope one year i will remember to get some!
After lunch i went to the hospital with my family to visit mum & then took her place going to the fremantle game. J was disappointed about not sleeping over but he had a good time watching the game & the team won!!!

Its now Thursday & mum is about to have surgery on one of her arms/shoulders now ...several days later. We are hoping it all goes well & she is painfree soon.

I haven't done much scrapbooking ( is that really a surprise?) but as always hope to get motivated soon...i think i am a scrapashopaholic ...im always buying scrap stuff but haven't the time to use it!
