And it's already been a full year of marriage. A bit of a fail to keep up with this blog haha.<br /><br />It's crazy how time flies, busy with marriage and life in general so apologies for the quietness - I've been so into photography and most of the time I'm photographing or editing.<br />But stay tuned for a new photography blog which will be released soon. Can't wait to share photos with you.<br /><br />Hope everyone is doing well, looking forward to catching up on blog reading.<br /><br />Lots of love,<br />FarrahWayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-66716215593547458592010-08-18T17:01:00.009+10:002010-08-19T10:00:19.076+10:00My dears! it has been a while.<div align="center"><br /></div><div align="left">Hello lovely readers, if you haven't ran away yet!<br /><br /></div><div align="left">Apologies for not updating. We haven't had internet access for a while. Our world has flipped upside down while we continue to attend the million weddings we are invited to this year. It's the year of marriage, seriously. And of course, moving to our new house. Yes we are now living in our new house! too amazing and such a blessing.</div><div align="left"></div><div align="left"><br /></div><div align="left">So we don't have internet at our new home at the moment. Biggest problem in the world! hah. It has been a pain to try to organise it, they say it would take another 3 weeks! sigh. Whatever did we do without the internet? I guess now it's sort of like an internet ban rather than a TV ban. It sucks big time. </div><div align="left"><br /> </div><div align="left">I can't wait to share with you some photos of our new place, we are in the middle of decorating it. My kitchen is bliss, I actually have room to fit all my appliances and there's empty cupboards....which means I got plenty of years to fill them up. woohoo! It's really weird that I take interest in my kitchen, I always used to find it incredibley boring when Mum went into kitchen-type shops but now I can't seem to stop looking at those shops. Plates, appliances, cutlery, bring them on.</div><div align="left"><br /><br /></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">I don't have many photos with me. But I thought I'd share some of these when I was up in Tamworth in June. I'm thinking of taking night classes in Photography, trying to find what my style is...I guess this takes years.<br /><br /></div><div align="center"></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506897276362959858" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxt5WQuK_I/AAAAAAAABG4/MrSrKys67WE/s400/IMG_2900b.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxuzlxDurI/AAAAAAAABHI/62A7XXO5PcU/s1600/IMG_2910b.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506898276957534898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxuzlxDurI/AAAAAAAABHI/62A7XXO5PcU/s400/IMG_2910b.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxuzJ6L51I/AAAAAAAABHA/Cs0XAsHbp6U/s1600/IMG_2909b.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506898269479626578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxuzJ6L51I/AAAAAAAABHA/Cs0XAsHbp6U/s400/IMG_2909b.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxxeJoGxKI/AAAAAAAABHY/rl-W3bk_IIc/s1600/water_drop.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506901207161423010" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxxeJoGxKI/AAAAAAAABHY/rl-W3bk_IIc/s400/water_drop.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxxdliLRlI/AAAAAAAABHQ/csUc7DfTbnM/s1600/IMG_2942.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506901197472876114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TGxxdliLRlI/AAAAAAAABHQ/csUc7DfTbnM/s400/IMG_2942.JPG" border="0" /> </a><p align="center"><br />What a darling!

I know. We haven't posted in ages! We have been in Tamworth for a funeral last week and 2 weeks before was my brother's Henna and Wedding so we have been busy flat out.<br /><br />In fact, I think in the next couple of months we will be even busier, with more weddings to attend, one in Wagga and another one in Gympie. Of course we can't forget the house, we are hoping for 1 month till completion so that means, packing, unpacking and being totally disoriented for a while.<br /><br />I thought I would share a few photos from my brothers wedding. It was quite lovely and he looked handsome as ever (picture a guy who never shaves and is always wearing tshirts and jeans) haha! I couldn't recognise him.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TCgzvTM5aEI/AAAAAAAABDc/mrbytt0ewyc/s1600/30723_397240987686_506492686_4856542_6073418_n.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5487693033652185154" style="DISPLAY: block;

It has a bit of a heritage feel to it, but at the same time it's also quite modern which is exactly what we were after! all the appliances are in stainless steel which also adds to the modern look.<br /></p><p><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TA8RwSUC8CI/AAAAAAAABCU/dIOTbPkNqtI/s1600/1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480618792780492834" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 291px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TA8RwSUC8CI/AAAAAAAABCU/dIOTbPkNqtI/s400/1.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><p><br />We have been visiting the house at night times after work, so it has been hard for me to take photos. The front door is in! although it will be a much darker colour than that. We chose chrome with a square edge handle, we love it.<br /></p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480619886386796626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TA8Sv8UG2FI/AAAAAAAABC8/ePQjcN9lvO4/s400/8.jpg" border="0" />I love the basin in our bathrooms, don't worry that blue isn't the paint! it's just white all over. I can't wait to show you the bathroom with the tiles, they look great. We have used earthy colours, with lots of ivory. We used the same heritage style cupboards in the kitchen for the bathroom, but a different bench top.<br /><p></p><br /><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TA8RyTb9X_I/AAAAAAAABCs/FPj6bbleUrc/s1600/6.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480618827441856498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 293px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/TA8RyTb9X_I/AAAAAAAABCs/FPj6bbleUrc/s400/6.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />There's so much rubbish everywhere, I sure hope they do a good job of cleaning it all up.</p><p>We are expecting it to be all finished in one month, so expect plenty of updates from me.</p><p>Farrah<br /><br /><br /><br /></p>WayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-19609355610131640872010-06-04T15:11:00.004+10:002010-06-04T15:44:25.046+10:00Sorry! we haven't been aroundI promise I'll do a proper update this weekend.<br /><br />But it has been one of those weeks, lots of drama, lots of crying...you know... it's a classic tale of Wayne and Farrah versus the world. Thank God we have each other!<br /><br />I learnt something out of it though...<br /><br />No one is perfect, we are human, we make mistakes it's as simple as that. But it's hard for people to understand that, forgiveness is not easy.<br /><br />I'm glad Wayne and I have each other and we can support each other through this. Love him to bits.<br /><br />Looking forward to catch up with your blogs y'all.<br /><br />xx<br />FarrahWayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-62191369103992190672010-05-14T10:05:00.010+10:002010-05-19T14:47:40.486+10:00Birthdays and Camera Ninjas.<div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472827164918485234" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 266px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_NjT2oTEPI/AAAAAAAABB0/euvwef6nlKg/s400/IMG_0005.JPG" border="0" /> <p align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">A few test pics!<br /><br /></span><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_Ni9GXuuCI/AAAAAAAABBs/wfULmYVFHCU/s1600/IMG_0006.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472826774006970402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_Ni9GXuuCI/AAAAAAAABBs/wfULmYVFHCU/s400/IMG_0006.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_Nl8K5_IAI/AAAAAAAABB8/nwh96s1ZdEA/s1600/guitar.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472830056579407874" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 293px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_Nl8K5_IAI/AAAAAAAABB8/nwh96s1ZdEA/s400/guitar.jpg" border="0" /></p></a><p align="left"><br /></p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_Ns7mA-DFI/AAAAAAAABCM/QJGw7Z5ZPAY/s1600/IMG_0549b.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472837743257979986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_Ns7mA-DFI/AAAAAAAABCM/QJGw7Z5ZPAY/s400/IMG_0549b.jpg" border="0" /> <p align="center"></a><span style="font-size:85%;">My nana in the kitchen, oh bless.<br /></span><br /></p><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_Ns7Swk2mI/AAAAAAAABCE/qowhSvDivuQ/s1600/IMG_0538b.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472837738088946274" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S_Ns7Swk2mI/AAAAAAAABCE/qowhSvDivuQ/s400/IMG_0538b.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I GOT A NEW CAMERA and I probably won't shut up about it for the next few months.<br />It's a beautiful Canon 7D which also takes HD video. *faints*<br />Wayne secretly organised for my family and his family to pitch in for my birthday to help us pay for it. I am absolutely so grateful for the great family I have.<br /><br />This is something I've wanted for a very long time but with buying a new car and saving up for a wedding it has been at the bottom of the list.<br /><br />I really enjoy photography especially when it comes to fashion and weddings so in the next few months I have a few personal projects which my lovely friends will help me out with. I want to put a folio together, and honestly it just seems like a side hobby but I'm open to where ever it takes me.<br /><br />Right now I'm trying to experiment with different styles. I'd like to create a vintage feel to the photos without having to use photoshop. I don't want my photos to look exceptionally perfect, not fun for me!<br /><br />So keep a look out for my projects this year. I guess it's also pretty helpful that I have 5 weddings to go to, so I'll be a 'camera ninja' as Wayne would call me. Sometimes he can't even find me when we go to weddings because I'm 'hiding' and clicking away, I just can't help myself.<br /><br /><br /><br />xx<br />FarrahWayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-71851468476377024822010-05-11T09:23:00.010+10:002010-05-14T09:40:23.471+10:00Luke and Nicole's wedding<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yLs6nYN1I/AAAAAAAABA0/fUxnYa8QUfU/s1600/IMG_4925.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yLs6nYN1I/AAAAAAAABA0/fUxnYa8QUfU/s400/IMG_4925.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470901251113236306" /></a><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470251660862211762" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-o85yWuxrI/AAAAAAAAA_8/R4Vu6hd0-Fk/s400/IMG_4993.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.lindagorringecouture.com.au/"><span style="font-size:85%;">Linda Gorringe</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;"> dress - notice the tie matching? kudos to wayne.</span></div><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-pErj5I5sI/AAAAAAAABAs/TJcZ8bi_e0g/s1600/IMG_4957.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470260212554852034" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-pErj5I5sI/AAAAAAAABAs/TJcZ8bi_e0g/s400/IMG_4957.JPG" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"> The wedding had a yellow theme! very different.</span><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-pErIwha6I/AAAAAAAABAk/2CQhj94UAT8/s1600/IMG_4961.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470260205270952866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-pErIwha6I/AAAAAAAABAk/2CQhj94UAT8/s400/IMG_4961.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">Mr. & Mrs.</span></div><div align="center"><br /></div><p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-o86mlf1aI/AAAAAAAABAM/Vga1stEPFpM/s1600/IMG_5032.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470251674882790818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-o86mlf1aI/AAAAAAAABAM/Vga1stEPFpM/s400/IMG_5032.JPG" border="0" /></a></p><p align="center">Diva ring, nails are OPI bling dynasty and my clutch from - <a href="http://www.davieandchiyo.com/">davie and chiyo</a></p><p><br /></p><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-o86Zz26AI/AAAAAAAABAE/KX5QSZL9bNg/s1600/IMG_5006.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470251671453362178" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-o86Zz26AI/AAAAAAAABAE/KX5QSZL9bNg/s400/IMG_5006.JPG" border="0" /> <br /><p align="center"></a></p><span style="font-size:85%;">Wayne and his brother with their cheesy salesman smiles.</p></span><br /><br /><p>Sorry we haven't posted in a while, we went away this weekend to a wedding :)</p>This is wedding number 3!

I must say we were both extremely tired for most of the trip and I suspect the early wake up call had something to do with it.<br /><br />It's so funny that Wayne and I were decked out in jackets and scarves and when we arrived at the Gold Coast we thought it was so nice and warm with a slight breeze, it wasn't cold at all and Wayne's uncle says 'Yeah it's a bit cool today'.....WHAT? this is not cool this is hot for us 'Melbournians'.<br /><br />For my overseas readers, Queensland is usually known as the 'sunshine' state, it's usually quite hot over there throughout the year and Melbourne is well known for its cold weather.<br /><br />The wedding ceremony was held outside at a beautiful winery and the reception was held at the same resort Wayne and I were staying at which was was very convenient.<br /><br />The theme of the wedding was yellow, summer, tropical, it was quite consistant throughout every detail.<br /><br />We had a lovely time but towards the end we were ready to go home, small getaways can be quite exhausting.<br /><br />Enjoy the pics xx<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yLtbK9waI/AAAAAAAABA8/qWdLkh6qtyY/s1600/IMG_5029.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yLtbK9waI/AAAAAAAABA8/qWdLkh6qtyY/s400/IMG_5029.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470901259852431778" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yMvJDOalI/AAAAAAAABBk/udKcEbm-1B4/s1600/IMG_5056.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yMvJDOalI/AAAAAAAABBk/udKcEbm-1B4/s400/IMG_5056.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470902388859497042" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yMuxWK5wI/AAAAAAAABBc/uzh9Z7DKeOc/s1600/IMG_5050.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yMuxWK5wI/AAAAAAAABBc/uzh9Z7DKeOc/s400/IMG_5050.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470902382496507650" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yMuWizBrI/AAAAAAAABBU/sOCkYUJQakI/s1600/IMG_5040.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yMuWizBrI/AAAAAAAABBU/sOCkYUJQakI/s400/IMG_5040.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470902375301711538" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yMt-LUwsI/AAAAAAAABBM/sfOXaFf1sMA/s1600/IMG_5038.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S-yMt-LUwsI/AAAAAAAABBM/sfOXaFf1sMA/s400/IMG_5038.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470902368760808130" /></a>WayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-42118536692537002522010-04-28T15:31:00.010+10:002010-05-06T10:36:54.939+10:00I suck at baking - Part 2 (Easiest cake...ever)<div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Yd1uRDyrI/AAAAAAAAA7M/jsc0LmPTXZc/s1600/IMG_4757.JPG"><span style="font-family:courier new;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464588006650530482" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Yd1uRDyrI/AAAAAAAAA7M/jsc0LmPTXZc/s400/IMG_4757.JPG" border="0" /></span></a><span style="font-family:courier new;"><span style="font-size:85%;"> YUM!

Wayne likes it cold, so we put it in the fridge for a while.<br /><br /><br /><br />Happy Baking xx<br /><br /><br />Farrah </span></div></div></div>WayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-91786044400816602132010-04-27T13:46:00.030+10:002010-04-29T08:48:57.972+10:00Cupcakes & Dresses<div align="center"><span style="font-family:'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Over the weekend, Wayne and I thought we deserved a night out so we decided to go out for dessert. This got me excited because I wanted to wear my new dress, which has *drum rolls please*............... <strong>shoulder pads!</strong> haven't decided if they suit me or not. I don't remember the shop name but I got the dress from Brunswick street, the day I visited <a href="http://365marriage.blogspot.com/2010/04/rose-street-artist-market.html">Rose St Market</a>. Currently I'm loving the combinations of red and blue. It's the colours we learnt to avoid when I studied web design back in <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">high school</span>, but in the fashion world these colours are gorgeous together.</span><br /><br /></div><p align="center"><span style="font-family:'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464659473020212098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Ze1nPX04I/AAAAAAAAA98/hog9KPJP67g/s400/IMG_4864.JPG" border="0" /></span></p><span style="font-family:'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><div align="center"><br /></span><span style="font-family:'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"></span><br /></div><p align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465066092219124786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9fQp9zAzDI/AAAAAAAAA_c/tsbXSLBMziY/s400/IMG_4865.JPG" border="0" /> <span style="font-size:85%;">Wayne made me pose.

I had a blast making them with Nicole, even though it was a messy experience with the red food colouring. Practically the whole kitchen was red, I think Wayne would have freaked out if he saw what the kitchen looked like. To his surprise I cleaned up everything straight away <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">lol</span>. You see Wayne has <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">threatened</span> once that he would sneak in a picture in our blog if I leave the kitchen messy ever again.

Wayne had a guitar jam with a friend so I had a free date.<br />My lovely friend Yael has had a stall there for a while now and I've been meaning to visit her to see her knitting goodies.<br /><br />It's a gorgeous market filled with hand made crafts from local Melbournians. I always like to encourage and support local artists and it was mind blowing to see how talented they were. It was like an <a href="http://www.etsy.com/">etsy</a> store, but in physical form...heaven! There's 70 stalls, a cute cafe, and the best part is that it's open every Saturday and Sunday 11am till 5pm.<br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464639698433348914" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZM2lKeFTI/AAAAAAAAA80/72Smo-5RyIg/s400/IMG_4835.JPG" border="0" /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Y1FJo24XI/AAAAAAAAA78/yhonwoVoHoA/s1600/IMG_4828.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464613560463581554" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Y1FJo24XI/AAAAAAAAA78/yhonwoVoHoA/s400/IMG_4828.JPG" border="0" /></a> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464639705835313410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZM3AvPGQI/AAAAAAAAA88/tfj2MTFlWU0/s400/IMG_4836.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464639695984092146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZM2cChY_I/AAAAAAAAA8s/IGCMMYzF9qA/s400/IMG_4834.JPG" border="0" /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL-uG6zDI/AAAAAAAAA8k/Q4zZb8il6IQ/s1600/IMG_4833.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464638738761698354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL-uG6zDI/AAAAAAAAA8k/Q4zZb8il6IQ/s400/IMG_4833.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL-DaqvXI/AAAAAAAAA8c/SSUyWL50MaA/s1600/IMG_4832.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464638727301807474" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL-DaqvXI/AAAAAAAAA8c/SSUyWL50MaA/s400/IMG_4832.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL9wMrBlI/AAAAAAAAA8U/Uw_4ujZkEF8/s1600/IMG_4831.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464638722142832210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL9wMrBlI/AAAAAAAAA8U/Uw_4ujZkEF8/s400/IMG_4831.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL88lu8bI/AAAAAAAAA8M/Ol5G3-8luzg/s1600/IMG_4830.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464638708289302962" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL88lu8bI/AAAAAAAAA8M/Ol5G3-8luzg/s400/IMG_4830.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL8YGwArI/AAAAAAAAA8E/X-fvCApESFg/s1600/IMG_4829.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464638698495673010" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZL8YGwArI/AAAAAAAAA8E/X-fvCApESFg/s400/IMG_4829.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I highly recommend you visit the Market if you're after unique items, accessories, clothes, designer pieces, homeware and limited edition artworks. I already got my eyes on a few items for our house.<br /><br />Of course I'm going to plug Yael, I love her work and she's just the nicest person ever. She's situated in the back corner of the market and she is most certainly the knitting queen. She makes gorgeous wraps and scarfs perfect for the winter season in all sorts of colours.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Y1Enz5AyI/AAAAAAAAA70/nzzR986XwBw/s1600/IMG_4827.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464613551383053090" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Y1Enz5AyI/AAAAAAAAA70/nzzR986XwBw/s400/IMG_4827.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Y1EKlUBuI/AAAAAAAAA7s/KNktuqJLvJ0/s1600/IMG_4826.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464613543537280738" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Y1EKlUBuI/AAAAAAAAA7s/KNktuqJLvJ0/s400/IMG_4826.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Y1C8amopI/AAAAAAAAA7c/nEpeWUcnTM0/s1600/IMG_4825.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464613522554397330" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9Y1C8amopI/AAAAAAAAA7c/nEpeWUcnTM0/s400/IMG_4825.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I ended up chatting to a few other stall owners, feeling inspired. I want to sew, or make something. My Nana was a tailor all her life, and my Mum is also fabulous at sewing. Surely they can teach me? if they are patient enough lol.<br /><br />Along with many other perks of Rose St Market, Brunswick Street is just around the corner. It only happens to be my favourite street, ever. Lots of other shops to visit (vintage goodness) and plenty of food to eat! I took my friend to eat pizza's at <a href="http://www.bimbodeluxe.com.au/">'Bimbos Deluxe' </a>a quirky pub and a semi lounge/club by night that makes delicious affordable gourmet pizzas. </div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"> </div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464646852294532498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZTW_X43ZI/AAAAAAAAA90/AjLyZz_Op2g/s400/IMG_4814.JPG" border="0" /><span style="font-size:85%;">This top is something my grandma would wear, but I love it - by Friends of Couture & I'm looking tired.</span></div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464641761384304354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZOuqQTjuI/AAAAAAAAA9U/3WqfshaqN6Q/s400/IMG_4813.JPG" border="0" /> <span style="font-size:85%;">Here we are at Bimbos! looking at their menu.</span></div><div align="left"><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464641788102346610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZOwNyYh3I/AAAAAAAAA9s/wmg4SZ5iA-M/s400/IMG_4819.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">Agnello: Tomato, mozzarella, spiced lamb, rocket, pinenuts, sultanas</span></div><div align="center"><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464641778483492354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZOvp9EdgI/AAAAAAAAA9k/JxMOgST5vFw/s400/IMG_4818.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div align="center"></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span style="font-size:85%;">Melanzana : Eggplant, fresh tomato, mozzarella, mascarpone</span></div><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S9ZOu5658UI/AAAAAAAAA9c/HQu6ZO8WoCI/s1600/IMG_4836.JPG"></a><br />Both Pizza's AMAZING.<br /><div align="left"><br />I had so much fun, it was a great day.

Does that make sense? or am I the only one? it was weird hearing the clock ticking, but ever so slowly I was eventually used to the silence in the house.<br />It gave me time to reflect, time to think about life, count my blessings etc. It was nice, different.<br /><br />When Wayne came back home, I was so over-joyed it was quite funny. I appreciated his company to a greater level, after an hour on my own feeling disconnected from the rest of the world it was like WOW I have someone to talk to now.<br /><br />We normally sit on the couch and watch TV when we eat dinner but this time we sat on the table like most normal people would do (obviously we're not normal) and talked for ages.<br /><br />We talk a lot already, but it was nice to share a meal and have a chat rather than watch TV/DVDs. I thought this was truly quality time, watching a movie 'together' is not really quality time. You don't talk when you watch a movie, this is why I never understood why couples on a first date went to the movies? how do you get to know one another?<br /><br /><br />This TV-ban has been a blessing in my opinion and it will be interesting to see what will happen after 1 month. Are we desparately going to put the plug back in and start watching the rest of our Stargate dvd's? or are we going to have a much stronger appreciation to the time we've saved not watching movies, dvds, or tv shows?<br />I hope we do get this sense of appreciation. There's just such an obsession in this world with entertaintment, I don't want to be stuck in that bubble.<br /><br />So now that we have a bit of free time I thought it would be good to take up a few hobbies:<br /><br />- Sewing (Hi Mum and Nana) pretty much most of my Mum's side know how to sew and I want to learn. I actually know a bit, I just need to practice. So off I go to the op shops! and helllo spotlight! (to my overseas readers, spotlight is a fabric store)<br /><br />- Wayne has an idea for a business - it's sort of a personal project and he's spending a bit of time researching on it.<br /><br />- Baking - I haven't had the chance to do much baking, only when I was young to help Mum out.<br /><br />- Story-writing - Wayne has a fabulous imagination and it's one of his other personal projects which I'd like to encourage him to continue working on.<br /><br />- Photography - I love photography, pretty much what I'd like to do full time.<br /><br /><br />What would you take up if you had a bit of free time?WayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-32445117057397023202010-04-13T10:41:00.015+10:002010-04-13T21:01:24.767+10:00House Update: Moroccan themed outdoor area<div align="left"><br /></div><div align="left">I hope you enjoy our house updates.

It's just so easy to forget about our chores, and once you sit on that couch, oh no. It takes every bit of energy to stand up again and do other things.<br /><br />So we've decided to set ourselves a small challenge, we're starting small because we have no idea how bad it will be, if we can achieve it we might extend it.<br /><br />So the challenge is to not watch TV for a whole week. Starting from this Wednesday.<br />It's quite a challenge because every other night we watch at least 2 episodes of Stargate, so no more stargate. Shock Horror!<br /><br />I think this will be good, it'll give us a chance to spend more quality time not just together but with others as well and most importantly more bible study. We can make extra time for our friends and family, just one hour will be great to catch up with a mate for a coffee. We can even have a few friends over to play board games instead of watching DVD's, at least this will encourage coversation.<br /><br />Do you think it's a bit of a weak challenge? or do you think personally you'd find it hard? If you think it's weak maybe you should challenge us to extend it =P<br /><br />We need your support!!!! and of course we'll let you know how we go.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">UPDATE:<br /><br />We don't actually watch TV channels, we use the TV to watch DVD's so that is our main killer. We've read your comments about it being a weak target and we've changed it for a whole month. How about that? The TV will be back on the 14th May (the day before my birthday) yaay.</span></strong>WayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-442984939173092382010-04-07T14:12:00.018+10:002010-04-09T09:01:32.877+10:00Happy blog about happy people and happy things<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7wGx6uqoII/AAAAAAAAA4M/6zN6otOV4lE/s1600/happy101.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 260px; height: 314px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7wGx6uqoII/AAAAAAAAA4M/6zN6otOV4lE/s400/happy101.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457244303114543234" /></a><br />Best title ever right?<br /><br /><br />It's kinda cool when you know there are people out there reading your blog and then on top of that you get an award for it! <br /><br />Out of boredom we made a video, it's much crazy like <a href="http://365marriage.blogspot.com/2010/03/day-82-i-laugh-like-donkey.html">this</a> one we made a few weeks ago.

Wayne and I went to church early morning and got to catch up with our church friends. We then got ourselves prepared for a lovely luncheon feast in my family home. </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><br /><br />My little cousin was there, and Wayne was so persistent on doing a scavenger hunt for her with easter eggs. So that's exactly what we did! and she loved it. When she found all the eggs she came up to me and said 'QUICK we need to find more eggs' and I said 'I think we found all of them already' and she replied back with a sad face 'but we didn't find the pink egg'. So cute! she loves pink and silly us forgot to hide a pink egg for her. </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><br /><br />I love family time, I can't wait to share memories like this with my cousin when she grows up. </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><br /><br />We stuffed our faces with chocolate like we've never seen chocolate before. I'm sure most of you did the same. I hope you did? that way I don't have to feel so guilty about it. </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><br /><br />Easter was the last straw for us to go absolutely nuts with food. We ate and ate and ate and then we simply just couldn't eat anymore and when we went back to work on Tuesday, it was impossible to think about food and not feel sick. </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><br /><br />Right now we are being healthy! no more junk food for a long time. Until Wayne and I both get back to a healthy range weight. We kinda went loose after the wedding but now it's important to focus on being healthy. We need support! so please, as much as we'd like to go out and have dinner with you at KFC or Pizza Hut...it's going to have to be a no. </div><div align="center"><br /><br />However we're cool with salad dates! <br /><br /></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S70JReHCUlI/AAAAAAAAA5c/dEM8BGgZd_w/s1600/IMG_0625.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457528519187911250" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S70JReHCUlI/AAAAAAAAA5c/dEM8BGgZd_w/s400/IMG_0625.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">Hello! & happpppy eastterrrr</span></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457528481596200882" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S70JPSEeV7I/AAAAAAAAA48/SGa6W16ePSk/s400/IMG_0621.jpg" border="0" /><span style="font-size:85%;">Look!

We just didn't want to limit our blog to just 1 year, and also at this rate writing everyday is just not possible. We are busy to the max! but we'll try to keep it consistent simply because we know how much you want to see what we're up to (I'm thinking of Mum).<br /><br />Also, at some stage we are going to change the name of the URL but we have to figure out how to do that and keep all the comments.<br /><br />By the way, <a href="http://www.wayneandfarrah.com">http://www.wayneandfarrah.com </a>still exists! and it directly takes you to this blog.<br /><br /><br />Much love,<br /><br />Wayne and FarrahWayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-37527130820505204692010-04-01T13:29:00.005+11:002010-04-07T10:47:41.857+10:00Only fools can bowl<div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7a7l5NN-uI/AAAAAAAAA3g/4Ga5of4qBNc/s1600/IMG_0576.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455754258291751650" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7a7l5NN-uI/AAAAAAAAA3g/4Ga5of4qBNc/s400/IMG_0576.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">I'm surprised they had bowling shoes to fit Wayne's feet</span><br /><br />Robyn's birthday happens to fall on April Fool's Day and we were invited to play bowling. The last few times Wayne and I did bowling I was particularly lucky to win, it's all about luck because I seriously suck at bowling. So he decided it would be a good idea to tell the whole world, 'FARRAH WILL WIN'....and completely jinxed me so I didn't win this time at all. In fact I came last.<br /><br />Nevertheless, we still had a fabulous night and Wayne was on a major hyper mood. He was pulling a few stunts here and there. For example, he would dance whilst bowling? only Wayne can pull off such a thing.<br /><br />After we played 2 games, we decided to go out for a drink at the Coffee Club. Wayne and I always get the same thing when we go to the coffee club, it's not actually coffee because neither of us drink it but it's Iced Chocolate :) no wonder why we've been gaining weight hah!<br /><br />Happy Birthday to Robyn xx<br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455754272752953122" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7a7mvFCZyI/AAAAAAAAA3o/sWOYcybRKfQ/s400/IMG_0574.jpg" border="0" /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7a7luYIkwI/AAAAAAAAA3Y/RJmD4FSWwGA/s1600/IMG_0578.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455754255384744706" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7a7luYIkwI/AAAAAAAAA3Y/RJmD4FSWwGA/s400/IMG_0578.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">Hello there!

It was so evident how much Matt and Kath loved each other and their faith in God shined through. <br />The ceremony involved 3 pastors that were apart of Kath and Matt's life in some form which I thought was so special, one blessed them, one lead the ceremony message and one married them. <br /><br />I loved Katheryn's natural look, her dress was satin a-line, her hair was down and curled with a flower to the side which looked divine. The bridesmaids were wearing a short strapless deep purple dress. <br /><br />After the ceremony we were in awe with all the home made sweets, from cupcakes to rum balls it was the nicest afternoon tea. Wayne and I didn't know anyone at the wedding so it was nice to walk around and talk to new people. <br /><br />We headed off to the Yarra Valley at the Oakridge Winery for the reception. <br />As you know, I have a slight obsession with wedding planning so as soon as we arrived I straight away wanted to see the table settings. The tables were dressed up fabulously with tea lights and pearls, my kind of style for sure. The placecards were adorned with lace and I was happy to see they spelt our last name right! haha. Most importantly it wasn't crammed up at all, and there was plenty of room for dancing. <br /><br />The food was...amazing. We were given the choice to pick between 3 mains. I'm not normally a fan of Gnocci but apparently the chef was well known for it and I gave it a go and I'm so glad I did, theflavours were scrumcious. I think I was near to tears when I heard the speeches, all around very mushy and lovey-dovey. Matt's grandfather wrote a letter to the couple too which was read out loud by Matt's uncle, so so special.<br /><br />Congratulations to Kath and Matt!<br /><br /><br /><p align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5453873194214055346" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 270px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7AMxjcnXbI/AAAAAAAAAzA/llqxADQecdo/s400/IMG_0531.jpg" border="0" /><span style="font-size:78%;"><span style="font-size:85%;"> Matt and his groomsmen praying outside before the ceremony</span><br /></span></p><p align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5453873183769942018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7AMw8ii2AI/AAAAAAAAAy4/YtKtM9UhgSA/s400/IMG_0529.jpg" border="0" /><span style="font-size:85%;">Wayne playing guitar in the ceremony.</span><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7AQHhe3luI/AAAAAAAAA0I/38iZWA-cAg8/s1600/IMG_4585.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5453876870178641634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7AQHhe3luI/AAAAAAAAA0I/38iZWA-cAg8/s400/IMG_4585.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7AP5BxKbzI/AAAAAAAAA0A/rcGMO8luXys/s1600/IMG_4568.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5453876621147270962" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7AP5BxKbzI/AAAAAAAAA0A/rcGMO8luXys/s400/IMG_4568.JPG" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">Wayne going through music sheet one more time before the real thing!</span><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7AOMu1vaLI/AAAAAAAAAzo/GXgFbed0Hx4/s1600/IMG_0543.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5453874760640325810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S7AOMu1vaLI/AAAAAAAAAzo/GXgFbed0Hx4/s400/IMG_0543.jpg" border="0" /></a> <span style="font-size:85%;">Outfit for the day :) <a href="http://www.dianaferrari.com.au/">Diana Ferrari</a> dress, <a href="http://www.betts.com.au/">betts</a> shoes on sale $20!

Different styles, shapes, designs, era, make, and other sub-choices like door handles...there's a gazillion door handles!!!<br /><br /><br />I wonder, those who own these door-making businesses how they came about being involved in this industry? just wake up one morning and say HEY I wanna make doors and lots of them! Our sales man was incredibley passionate about doors, he was describing them as if to say that they are the most important part of a house...hmm. To be honest, we were standing there and trying to remember what our doors look like in our current unit. It's just something you don't really notice and remember?<br /><br />So we're definitely not spending a lot of money on doors, or door handles for that matter. The handles are just as expensive as the doors! which I found quite hilarious.<br /><br />I've got a few pics of some of the doors, some of the glass ones are adorable. But unfortunately we're not going for that look but if I ever build a cute cottage house I think those designs would be fab. We're going for more of a modern, french-chic look. But that could change so who knows!WayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205603128024478260.post-66640709773579762532010-03-25T14:24:00.007+11:002010-04-07T11:55:41.069+10:00Thank you cards<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S68RIctHGiI/AAAAAAAAAxw/LIYei9TltIs/s1600/IMG_4744.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5453596510610987554" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LHNmRrlvfro/S68RIctHGiI/AAAAAAAAAxw/LIYei9TltIs/s400/IMG_4744.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Can you believe I still haven't finished? but that's because I've made it a bit of a big deal.

The roof is now up, the electricals are in, the windows are there and now they've nearly finished doing the bricks. It's so exciting to see it come together.<br /><br />We seriously need to free up our weekends so we can start to look at tiles, bathrooms and kitchens. But every weekend we've had either a birthday, a wedding, or an engagement party. We're finding it hard to do anything these days as we are occupied with quite a few events.<br /><br />How do we use our time efficiently? not sure how all you mothers out there do it!!!<br /><br />xx<br />FarrahWayneandFarrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15562824075907818434noreply@blogger.com2
