Sunday Snapshot

The weekend was all about these two beautiful people...


and why was it about these two beautiful people?
Because Em and Pete were getting MARRIED!!!!



Em looked beautiful, she stayed looking beautiful even with gale force winds BLASTING us during the beach-side ceremony, all through the photos and the entire reception (that was moved inside to protect everyone from the wind but the only place for the bridal table was on the balcony in the wind).

Wolf managed to get himself and the three boys all scrubbed up and at the ceremony with plenty of time to spare.  We almost forgot to take a family photo but remembered just in time for me to rush off to the official photos and Wolf to take the kids to eat before going to the babysitters.



That's why the boys shirts are untucked, Dragon's tie is rather dishevelled, and the boys have all but given up on cooperating.

They did pause for long enough for Wolf to take this photo a little earlier.


The wedding party had a great time.  I happen to think myself and my fellow bridesmaids were looking particularly good...


and I got to catch up with some wonderful friends...


Left to right: Jen, Lan, Em, Me, Ni.

Now, stay focused here, Em is actually the newcomer to this group, we've only know her since we were 9.  Jen and Lan have been best friends since forever, I've been hanging around since about then too.  Lan, Ni and I started grade one together and Em joined us in grade four.  We all knew Jen already but she came to our school in grade eight.  Fast forward a little while... first year out of school Ni left for a year in Japan, she came back and both her and Em left for uni down south, third year out of school and I got married and left town, came back the next year, eventually Em came back too, Lan and Jen never left and Ni occasionally comes to visit us... y'know, when something important happens... like sweet Em gets married!!!

Hopefully there will be more photos of the rest of our weekend soon... maybe.

My Ni

This is my Ni* ...

I know, she's just a bit stunning isn't she?
It was for this chicky that I dragged myself away from my babies for the weekend. We've been friends since grade 1, I know far too many stories about her to even start telling (and she's in law so I'm just not that brave) and she knows just as many about me yet we are still friends. Or perhaps that's why we're still friends, it's just too dangerous to not be...

These two were my partners in crime for the weekend. Lan (right) flew down with me, stayed at C & A's with me, hiked all over Brisbane city in heels with me, just shared the whole weekend with me. Em (left) was in the wedding and joined us after the reception for a very late night yapping and 8 hours of shopping the next day and the (delayed) flight home.

I've sure got some stunning friends!

*Ni, pronounced "nigh" as in "the end is..."
