Trying to catch up

Well unfortunately I left work last Thursday non the wiser where my work future was concerned. I will be speaking with the Union again tomorrow so they might be able to enlighten me a bit more, but it has been good to take the last four days out and just try and relax. There is nothing that I am able to do at the moment so I have spent the last four days catching up on the sleep I missed earlier last week, and also just enjoying the break. Lots of sleep, lots of chocolate and lots of time with family and friends. Will post more about the weekend later. I really want to share the photos from the weekend before. Anna (one of Sarah's bridesmaids) and Barry were married and the wedding was gorgeous. So want to share the photos from it. (Warning there are heaps, but Anna was a beautiful bride and I want a record of this wonderful day)Sarah with Anna and Amanda (both of these girls were bridesmaids for Sarah when she got married 4 years ago)Anna with her two sisters, Amanda (in blue) and Katie (in pink)
Love this photo o Anna.Anna and Amanda

Anna has an amazing voice and has studied Opera at the Qld Conservatorium of Music, and at the reception she sang an Italian love song to her new husband. It was just beautiful.
Love this photo of the happy couple.
The happy couple hits the dance floor.The bridal party hits the dance floor.
The real highlight of the weekend or me though was having this pair home. It is ages since both Sarah and Colin have been home, so good to have them, wish they lived closer cause I would love to spend more time with that daughter of mine. Shopping is never the same without her.

Meanwhile, whilst we were all off at the wedding, Chloe and Sarah's other friend Amanda (who is living with us for six weeks whilst she does her prac teaching in Rocky) went 4WDriving to Five Rocks. Here are a few of the photos from their afternoon.
Three car loads of us.
A view from the top of the sand dunes. Looking down along Five mile beach.
A bit of fun on the beach.
Some Kite flying - can I get it up.
Oh drat
Lets try again - a little more success this time.
A view of the famous "Five Rocks"Awesome views for as far as the eye can see.

Air in the tyres to go home- plus one last photo.
Heading home after a full day on the beach.

Well that's about it for tonight, will be back in the next couple of days to post about our Easter weekend away. Sorry bout the huge photo post, but these are for my benefit.

Anna made a beautiful bride. I love her dress, the strap work is amazing.

Love all these photos Karen, Chloe looks like she had a great time 4WDing too.

I hope you get some news on your job/wrk opportunities soon.

The wedding photos are beautiful! Too bad you did not have the ability to let us hear the bride. Her gown looked vintage! Amazing!

Love your beach photo's! It would be fun to visit you for a week, you always have a great time!

I have been paper scrapping, Im in the process of making 3 different mini books {time consuming} one for a baby shower. One for a class I want to teach. One of, two of my brothers just took a trip to France. The book is called Paris.
I'll share when they are completed.
