My Week in Instagram

This past week was special, fun, romantic, sad and satisfying.

It was John's birthday, presents and cakes galore.

My Dad came over for business, but we got to hang out too :)

I also had a funeral to go to, for someone truly caring, inspirational and well loved. It was a lovely service though; before he died, he requested that everyone wear bright clothes, and instead of flowers to bring a shrub or small tree to plant. His wife (my high school teacher and friend) told us some hilarious stories, and at the end some of his close friends did the Maori Haka - intensely awesome.

Some lovely moments were shared between my boyfriend and I. Without sounding too mushy or gushy, he's an amazing person and I'm so glad I found him.


Hope your weekend was all of the above and more!

Sydney Royal Easter Show!

Here in Sydney, we have a royal show that's on around Easter every year. It has rides, showbags, horse shows, cow shows, fireworks, Aussie Outback performances and much more!

John's family and I went on the weekend and it was lots of fun (and pretty exhausting!). So if you're in Sydney around Easter next year, check it out! :)

Hope you're all having a wonderful week so far! :) 

Farewell March!

March has been a pretty busy month for me! There have been new friends made, new things learnt, new experiences, new movies watched (The Hunger Games, yay!) my first photo shoot and much more!

Check out my pictures below :)

Crossing the Sydney Harbor Bridge on a beautiful Sunday

How cool is this pic? It's almost like it's out of the 1920's or something! 

The Hunger Games. 'Nuff said. 

John at the Lindt Cafe!  

Darling Harbor, Sydney. 

How was your March? Hope it was fantastic! 

Striped Frame DIY

Don't get me wrong, I love classic white for photo frames, but there's something fun and chipper about red stripes.

See?

I love that it actually looks like I made it, the little imperfections make it more personal! (But that's totally my opinion :P) 

On another note, I found this amazing site via Adelyn Stone (her blog is amazing by the way, lots of DIY's, tutorials, tips and yummy recipes!) called Picnik where you can create your own button, pics and lots of fun additives (which is how I did my photos above). Unfortunately they're closing on April 19th, so use it while you can! It's SO easy and fun. 

Hope you're having a wonderful day, wherever you are :)
