In all it's glory...

It's here it's really really here! Wow it's like Christmas and my birthday all on one day, the truck pulled up and up the flight of stairs or two... And unwrapped there it was in all it's glory!


I really need to Channel my passion I just have way to much for all things house! My lounge room/dinning is my perfect combo of charcoal, black & accents of yellow I elected for a slightly smaller lounge this time and the room looks ten times bigger and lighter.


What should my next project be...?
Let me know what you think! If I should change anything, add anything, take away anything? Love to hear your thoughts :)

Escaping

I have been day dreaming of holidays lately just a little escape, husband and I in a world that knows our little existence where we can feel like kids again and explore a city that feels like no other we have experienced. I long for a taste of freedom to explore the world...


Bora Bora and America are on the top of my list! Where have you been? Where would you love to go?!




Why doesn't money grow on trees?

Happy Anniversary

A very very belated "happy anniversary" to my Mum & Dad 22years of being each others rock.


I think the paragraphs in my wedding speech best describes my parents


My mother is the strongest rock not only in my life but in my family’s, she has been by my side through this whole journey and it wouldn’t have been so fun without her! I’m sure most of you have heard what a little monster I was when I was younger so you can only imagine what my mother was up against for my wedding planning but I think I finally surprised my mum in a good way! We have grown so close over the past years and she has been such a wonderful support system for me. I admire my mum’s courage and strength and her devotion to this family. She loved Dave from day one and took him straight into our family. I love you mum and I hope that I can live up to at least half the wife and mother that you are.


My dad. I think the most important thing to say about my dad is that after many persistent years of learning golf you finally beat Dave on the golf course! Now don’t listen to him when he said he let you win because believe me I have never heard a grown man cry ( I don’t think he knew I was home though). Through my life you have taught me so many life lessons and the importance of setting up our future. Whenever I was lost in life you always knew how to guide me back in the right direction or say the right thing. My dad has always been the biggest teddy bear and showered my mum with love I can only hope that my marriage is as strong as yours! You have always been the man of wisdom and I can only hope before you move you accomplish my long list of handyman tips to teach Dave or you will forever be finding yourself with a month’s list of jobs when you visit me!




Love you Mum & Dad x x


Ps.. Dad loves the tv show "sons of anarchy" and one year for his birthday we bought him fake tattoo sleeves and his friend made him a "sons of Jacaranda shirt" Dad always reads my blog so I'm probably gonna be in trouble but it's just too funny not to share haha!

Bring on Spring

I did some gardening today and I came across my Pansy's that I planted well and truly before my wedding they have finally flowered. Don't they just look so delightful I couldn't help but pop them inside.


Simplest pleasures are always the best!

Mad Men knows it!

Don Draper all we want to do is please you

I don't know what it is about mad men that sucks you in but don draper is certaintly a plus! Here are some of my fav quotes!

"you want some respect? Go out there and get it yourself"
"if you don't like what's being said, change the conversation"
"since when is foregiveness a better quality than loyalty?"

I think they are onto something! Since when does someone else's actions define our reactions to life we need to make sure we surround ourselves with love, laughter, friends, family whatever makes you smile in your memories in those moments in your life.

Treasure each moment, learn from mistakes and never stop growing life won't stop for you it stops for no one!
