Testing out my birthday pressie

My gorgeous hubby bought me a 55 - 200mm Nikkor lens for my birthday last week. I absolutely love it! Now I can finally take photos of Oscar, aka pocket rocket, without him being just a blur in the distance!

This week I am grateful for. . . . . my family and friends

May is my favourite month of the year, I get to celebrate my wedding anniversary, mama's day and my birthday. This year I was extremely spoilt for all three occasions. My gorgeous hubby took me on a blindfolded treasure hunt for our anniversary, with the end surprise a beautiful hand made card and an eternity ring. We celebrated our night with a bottle of 2001 vintage black dog shiraz and an evening of laughter and reminiscing. 

 On mama's day I was awoken to the sweet voice of my little man wishing me a very special day. I enjoyed french toast and coffee in bed before dozing off again for another two hours. Oh what bliss!

I celebrated my birthday on Wednesday, and was showered with love and best wishes by family and friends. I am so very grateful for the special people in my life, who never cease to make me feel loved, appreciated and so very blessed. The icing on a fabulous May was toasting my new business with a glass of Chandon in the Royal Doulton champagne glasses I was given by my mum.

Did I mention also that I might be a little bit spoilt... *blush*? 

I hope you too are having a week to be grateful for. I am playing along with Maxabella Loves, come along and join in the fun!

Our fourth wedding anniversary

 Today my gorgeous husband and I are celebrating our fourth wedding anniversary. I feel so blessed that our love is even stronger today, then it was on that magical autumn day.

    

I'm playing Wordless Wednesday with Faith, Hope and a Whole Lotta Love, pop on over and add your special memory xx

This week I am grateful for.... two very special friends

With my fourth wedding anniversary only days away, I have been reflecting all week on two very special people in my life. They are my best friends; two amazing and inspirational girls with a heart of gold. I am truly blessed to have grown alongside them, had their wisdom to learn from and their friendship to gain strength from. 

This week I am so very grateful for my best friends, my confidants, my strength when I need it, the two people whose laughter never ceases to make me smile.

I hope you too had a week to be grateful for xxxxx
