We got here at 9pm and on our bed was a whole lot of presents, I even got a little cupcake with 2 candles to blow out for my Birthday which was 2nd July. How amazing! We are off to get a coffee & breakfast in town and soak up the sun.

Polli's Personal Photoshoot







My own little Photoshoot for Polli !~ This is only a little preview, the rest of the photo-shoot is on my flickr, and the rest I still need to upload! lol

After researching so many amazing photographers, I thought I'd give it a go myself!
Cheers to Michelle from "What is this in my hand" for being one of the models and who plated my hair amazingly in the top picture!

Love Day


Photography done by Marianne Taylor

Today was a love day, I got home to a bottle of champagne, pink blossoms and a box of chocolates waiting for me on our bed! Both our evening arrangements where canceled, so Mike decided to get out "The Princess and the frog" for us to watch on a rainy night. And I made us some delightful pancakes to munch on. Romance is sooo not overrated!
