the wedding!

Well Jayesh and Jess got married yesterday in a very memorable ceremony (no one will forget his speech in a hurry!)   Their photos were captured by a lovely New Zealand girl Lottie Hedley who is a super talented photographer http://www.lottiehedleyphotography.com/ so I left my camera in its bag and enjoyed the ride.

I did however have to snap a few shots of their first dance which was such fun to watch - well done Jayesh and Jess!!

My family is growing...

painting daze...

I reckon that by now, I have pretty well painted most of the inside of our house - no joke.  The almost final hurdle is the room affectionately know as the "school room" thanks to years of homeschooling!    Taking a break from hours of sanding I thought I would grab the camera and take a couple of shots of stuff around the room - just for fun.
The height chart is something I don't really want to paint over just yet - but the dilemma is how to leave it there without making it look like a piece of wall I forgot to paint over...still working that one out.  The door to Elise's bedroom is testimony to how well she keeps it tidy - waahaa!!

spontaneous boonah

Shayna and I jumped in the car and took a detour to Boonah.  The sunset was pathetic so light trails became the next option.  Will need to take another detour out that way soon to this little place called Aratula - blink and it's gone.  But oh my goodness, does it have the best second hand shop/shed around!
