I am so excited to have seen some of the photos already from our photo shoot with Ali over the weekend. We headed down to the river bank on Saturday afternoon and spent some time with Ali mucking around and Nathan & I really enjoyed ourselves. It was great to have out photo taken in such a relaxed fashion. Ali takes really awesome photos and you can check out her stuff at her website (http://www.alirussellphotography.com)
After out photo's we headed home to get stuff organised for dinner. We had 10 of us (adults) in total for a BBQ on Saturday night. Around the table were; Ali, Glen and Luke, Jo, David, Harry and Liam, Amanda and Mark, Ang and Noel and us. We had such a great night with some old friends and we were also able to spend some time getting to know each others husbands which was really great. I would post some photo's of us all, however I forgot to even get my camera out! What a terrible scrapper I am LOL!!! Oh well, hopefully we will get to do it again soon.
On to other exciting news...
Nathan has been offered a new position. He will be working for the same company - BUT - he won't have to travel anywhere near as much. After 8 years of constant travel we are really looking forward to this. He will be starting at the end of June. (Which just happens to be the start of my holidays but oh well) This just means that I will be free to do my own thing during the holidays.
Book club???
Today I got an e-mail from one of my friends (Amanda) about the thought of starting a book club! How cool!! I am so excited - we are getting together this weekend!! I think that this is such a great idea. We already have our own library system going where books are continually moving from person to person so I think that this will be so much fun. This sounds like the sort of homework I will really enjoy!
Fund raising:
On of the other designers at Embellished (my local store) Maz is planning to spend two weeks in November/December 2008 cycling around Vietnam and Cambodia in support of Oxfam. She needs to raise money so if you would like to find out more or support her please visit her blog .http://followtheyellowbrickroad-maz.blogspot.com/
Well that is all for now. I hope everyone is having a fantastic week. Leave me a comment if you drop by.
