I bought a dress!!!

I found a dress for Carmens wedding on Saturday! I prayed God would lead me to the right one and I found it in the last shop I looked in! for a while I thought I would just have to end up wearing whatever looked decent in my wardrobe! its a gorgeous black one - plus it was a steal! marked down and my size!!! I just need some shoes and stockings and I'll be all set to go! I think the last time I wore a dress was at my own wedding, I am so looking forward to Saturday and Mark bought a suit for it too! I'll make sure someone takes some nice photos of us.

The girls seem to be better now and Ella is just on the verge of crawling - still! I think I said that last time lol! and Bethany just gets more adorable with each day, she has begun to say 'wuv you' when I tell her I love her , at the moment she loves to stare at herself in my mirror (I dont know where she gets that from) she just stares at and talks to herself, this photo I took she had been staring for a good 5mins! she loves to go in my (our) room and look through my bedside drawers and now she can reach my perfumes, I usually find lipbalms and perfume around the house now , the door is missing its handle so we can't close it, I can't believe she will be 2 next Friday! where has the time gone?

Jake starts school holidays tomorrow - I love school holidays!! and not being rushed in the mornings, I asked him if he is excited about the holidays and he said sort of, he likes school now!

Blog Challenge #3

blog challenge- fav spot-
ok heres my favorite spot in the house, the family room, its the room that most of the day is spent around as the kitchen and dining room is next to it so we use this room most of the time- and of course my scrapping desk is in the corner! you can't tell in this photo but that window is my fav spot to see things- from where I took this photo we can clearly see freight trains and huge ships that go out to sea via the Port river, I remember the first morning after we moved, back in January last year- the start of a 40 degree heatwave, I had very little sleep, boxes everywhere and Bethany was really unsettled in her new room (she was 6mths), I went to try and settle her and when I went past and looked out the window I could see the sun rising- it truly took my breath away, even now at night when I have to feed a baby I will sometimes stand here and look at all the lights or watch a huge fishing boat go out in the dark- it amazes me how blessed we have been with buying this house, and everyday I am so thankful for this house and this room!!

why go there?

Hi there!!
well I have started my own little blog, here I will record all the details- well not all, just the ones that will be of interest of the life I call my own, which happens to be based upon God and my faith, and my beautiful family dh Mark, ds Jacob, dd Bethany and dd Ella.
Not knowing alot about computers this may take a little while to get in the flow of things here, hence my title- why go there? I enjoy reading about other people on their blogs so I hope people will enjoy reading mine- even if it will just be Emily reading!!!
