Happy Birthday Paige

This weekend I am off to spend time with my family to celebrate my niece Paige's 3rd birthday! Really looking forward to it.

I hope she has a fantastic birthday and I look forward to celebrating with her.

I do love the Zoo

On the weekend we headed to Taronga Zoo. I adore zoo's and even though I was tuckered out by all that walking it's a great way to spend an afternoon.

The view from Taronga Zoo is just incredible. Looking out over the harbour towards the bridge and opera house you can't be anything but jealous of the mountain goats.




Yes, still addicted to Instagram on my iPhone. Its a great way to still be able to use those bad photos

Paper daisies

It was my bosses last day today and I was in charge of getting the flowers. I love flowers and found amazing orange paper daisies.

I think they are my new favourite flower.

I just discovered Instagram

When I saw the image below on A Beautiful Mess I knew I had to be a part of Instagram.


I was up early this morning to go to Pilates and in the rain took a few photos on my phone. They were pretty but they could use ........... something! So I played around and here is what I made.

Invest in me

Change and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to become involved with experimenting with his own life.
Herbert Otto

I think the above quote is a great way to capture how I feel about life at the moment. One way I am investing in me is personal development. My first step on that journey is to undertake the Red Velvet eCourse Blog Love.

Another way I am investing in me is through registering for professional development courses and joining Weight Watchers.

If we all did the things we are capable of, we would astound ourselves.
