Update

Wow it's already been over four weeks since my last blog.

I guess you are probably wondering, what could a person be doing that stops them from blogging for four weeks?

Well actually life has been pretty busy, full of challenges, surprises, adventure and a whole lot of fun and I hope to provide you with a small sample of what life has been like for me in the past four weeks.

I ....

Finished my photoshoot of Alita Contsruction buildings. 

Took on a second shooting role for Jack & Wilmas wedding, took on a family photoshoot for the Evans family,


Photoshoot for Ryan & Erica Swarts.




 
Photoshoot of Erica Grace Steenhof.






 Trip to Bali for 10 days with Shan & Colleen, Ray & Estelle & Jono & Cynthia, we had an awesome time!


 View from our room in the WHITE ROSE in Legian/Kuta



Cynthia getting her hair wrap. (funny story) we all got matching Ray Ban sunnies but in different colours. we then got matching hairwraps and then got matching Bintang tanks. (was sooo much fun) Felt like we were 13 again! :)


 We also got mathcing henna tattoos ( a turtle on our ankles)

 
 
 Shan and his southern cross tattoo.

 Ray looking like he could be "BEACH" mafia. haha!
 
 Estelle waiting to get her "hairwrap"
  
 Shan and the tatoo man.
 
 You cant leave Bali without a Bintang singlet
 
 The boys. Doing what they did best. A whole lot of nothing.

 View from just outside our room toward the pool & beach. This is the Kinds Villa Bintang Resort in Nusa Dua. Or Billa Bintang if you are speaking to a taxi driver. :)

 
 Our room is the door on the left and Jono and Cynthia are to the right. Shan, Colleen, Ray & Estelle were abit further up the path to the right.
 
Some of the nice flowers at the resort.

 Me & J.

 J & Jono found their dream shop. And thought they could both be bikies. :)
 
 One afternoon we went for a drink to Crusoe's Island. the atmosphere was really cool. And just to the right of this photo was a GIGIANTIC fan! nice touch to a warm day.

  Ok. Where do I start? This is the expression Ray gets when he really likes what he is eating. :)

 Hanging out at our favourite dinner place . The SECRET GARDEN on Poppies lane. Live band, good food, great company, what more could you want. (Minus the biting ants. A memory that will long live on with Colleen and myself, and also the band tribute from Shan by Pearl Jam!)

  Pool view at our resort.

  Another flower
 
 On Friday night the soccer started. The locals really get into it. This was the Mini Mart next to our hotel. There is a big screen with the soccer on there and a whole lot of locals came to watch.



 Four girls from different backgrounds. All with different stories. Each one holds a special place in my heart. Thanks for an awesome time!


Bali took up two weeks of blogging time. But two weeks which were thoroughly enjoyed!

To fill in the rest of the time I ...

Celebrated Greg & Lianas engagement party, and gave departing hugs as they leave for Canada.
Sorted out Jasons business insurance and am getting ready for end of financial year. 
Have been cleaning up the office and filing cabinet. And have been frequenting the gym at least four times a week. Playing netball Thursday nights and soccer on Saturday.

I have been guilty of watching a few dvds in amongst there as well. Highly recommend My Sisters Keeper for those who haven't seen it. And Dear John is good too. Really good if you feel like having a sappy girls day or just feel like crying.

And for now I think that is the most of it!

Hope you enjoyed the catch up and I will endeavour to be more frequent.
