Manly Sea Eagles Premiers - Sunshine Coast Supporters

Well technically school is back this week though family still in town means the kids got lucky with a couple of extra days off. So in the spirit of holidays, great food, a good supply of alcohol, awesome company and a Football Final..............
The Manly Sea Eagles are the NRL 2008 Premiers - shame no Qld team to follow though between one sister living in Sydney who is a die-hard fan (pics below of her in action) and my partner Ian a Northern Beaches Boy - it was obvious who to go for!!!! Or was it - my other sister Mandy with hubby Doug (from north Qld) were barracking for Melbourne Storm. Who would have thought the final score would be 40-0. But some fresh fresh seafood, some entertainment from the younger generation - concerts are a big family tradition - and then we finished with the good ol pavlova.
Family Session coming in a day or two.

Surf Sand Freckles & Nintendo - Holidays at Alexandra Headland

A quick post with some snaps of my wee ones. Now into 2nd week of school holidays - grandparents from Sydney up for a week. My sister Mandy and family down from Airlie Beach for a couple of days, now down northern NSW and will be back (definitely grab some pics of Ruby and Levi), my other sister Trudy will also be up from Syndey this weekend - and then throw in some work and boy where does the time go. Been hitting the gorgeous beaches here - Mooloolaba Beach the best for little ones as it is a protected bay beach , though Alex is OUR "home" beach (more open surf beach) - straight down the end of our street. Yes very spoilt - if I don't have to take the camera I wont (you know that work thing) so these are after the beach. Gotta love the bean bag - my kids do and it saves all the sand, food etc on the leather. Little Lucy is too cute - she thinks she is also racing - bet she will have it down pat by the time they actually plug her in. The absent eldest has been working her little butt off - 6 days last week - good thing about that is she is taking Jene` to the movies today with HER hard earned money.
Will be posting a fun 70th Birthday Bash and two of the cutest kids - promise I'll be back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sarah & Ryan - Sunshine Coast Church Wedding

Little tardy on this end with the blog posting - no excuses but I will throw in Family arriving both interstate and from up north, School holidays and just plain busy. 

Gorgeous Sarah & Ryan are now in Thailand on their honeymoon hopefully tracking down an internet cafe to have a peak. Sarah & Ryan live in Cairns, North Queensland, but returned to Sarah's home town the Sunny Coast for their special day. And what a fabulous day this was - went to school many moons ago with Sarah's sister Fiona (Matron of Honour) and her youngest Keely is the stunning bridesmaid. Must mention Mogana the eldest away at the snow on a School excursion. Adam was Ryan's best-man and his nephew William the pageboy - who you can see being a typical 3 year old with the ring cushion. The ever talented Trish Falzon did a great job with the make-up and also a touch up with hair-spray for Sarah. Hayley from Pure Hair & Beauty did all the girls hair. Young Sarah vowed not to be late - a running joke with friends - though car keys locked in the house did put an end to the good intentions - only 20 mins late. Ceremony held at the Maroochydore Uniting Church before the beach and then reception at the Headland Golf Club. Can't wait to get all the proofs to you guys - we had some funky locations (still processing not shown here) which look super!!!!! Congrats on a perfect day.

Gift from Bride - Sunshine Coast

I have the most amazing clients. You love it when your clients appreciate your work and how much you invest into their day. Usually this is expressed at the end of the day or afterwards when they receive their package. So you will understand my pleasant surprise when the bride herself dropped off these gorgeous thank you gifts just hours before exchanging her vows. How sweet is that. Sarah & Ryan's post will follow in a couple of days (brilliant day for a wedding here on the Sunshine Coast) but just had to pop this on - excuse my bikini clad daughter who just finished swim lessons and dutifully held these up. Chocolates were gone by the time I returned last night.................. Thanks Sarah & Ryan - so thoughtful - and your wedding was a beautiful as you guys.

Father's Day Sunshine Coast

Happy Father's Day to all those super dads out there. Always thinking of my Dad (sadly lost at sea) though obviously today more so on my thoughts. My special Ian has four little ones who showered him with big massive hugs, wishes and kisses today. Lucky boy has had two surfs, pancakes for brekky, some oh so special pressies (ha!), play in the park with the kids, little bit of tv and his fav Lasanga for dinner. Mug shots of the kids - hair as you can see is big in our house - my little contribution - if you know me you know what I mean. Enjoy all you wonderful dedicated dads.
