Mostly my life has consisted of work, wedding planning, and hanging out. Nothing terribly exciting. Like I said in my last post I feel like I am now settling into this place so it doesn't feel like I am constantly doing new and exciting things...instead I am just living and loving life here. And it feels normal now.
I am kinda going backwards with this post from what happened most recently first then back to what happened a few weeks ago. But I will give you dates so you can keep track
After church on Sunday night (Aug 17) we went to a little restaurant and this was on the wall of the restaurant. Ash and I liked it!
That same day (Aug 17) I had a yummy salad from a random cafe in the city. This salad was too yummy not to be shared. Quinoa, spinich, pumpkin, feta, avo (which I picked out), tomatoes, onions, yum!!
Ash and I had breakfast at the boat house again (Aug 16). But this time it was raining so it wasn't as beautiful but the food was still amazing. And so was the company :) Ash did not want his picture taken.
But I did! Okay so I told ash to order me eggs and a coffee while I sat down at our table. When we get our order he got me eggs but also got us a massive fruit platter to share. It was wonderful. I have trained my man well. He knows I love fruit and he still knows how to surprise me even in little ways.
We attended an Australian wedding (Aug 9). Aussie weddings are somewhat different than American weddings. The main difference was that the ceremony is like in the afternoon at 2pm and then the reception is like at 6pm at night. So everyone just finds things to do in between.
These are some polaroids from the wedding. Ash had just got off the plane from Canada from another wedding he went to there so he was a bit jet lagged lets just say. At least he wont be jet lagged for the next wedding we attend together (our wedding).
Luckily for us we had amazing views while we were waiting
And we went to an amusement park. I found myself a cutie. He makes everyone around him laugh and I love that about him.
Oh and isn't this precious. This is Ash with our pastors newborn baby. He is kinda a natural.
These girls. I will miss every single one of them. Oh and the blonde two people to the right of me is one of my lovely bridesmaids and she is making the trip all the way from Sydney to Texas for the wedding! I am so happy to have her! We have been doing 5am gym workouts together here and its been great to have a workout buddy again.
Ash made me breakfast the morning of the same wedding from above (Aug 9). And look at this fruit. Did I tell you he knows me or what.
He is a stud in the kitchen.
This photo. I die every time. It makes me laugh. Yes, Ash is the baby and our friend Ben is the mother. (aug 9) Just take a moment and laugh. Then after your done reading this post come back to this picture and have a laugh again.
On August 2nd, Ash was away in Canada so Chloe picked me up for a girls day. We went to lunch and then watched her play netball. Its a super popular sport here in Australia and in the Commonwealth countries. Its basically similar to basketball except once you get the ball you can't move. Also people have different positions and say if you are defense you cant go past half court. Or similar rules like that. It was entertaining to watch that is for sure.
We also had a girls night celebrating Kaylene's birthday! Homemade pizzas, girl talk, prank calls, pictures, cake, etc. Nothing beats girls night with these girls!!
I want to do a post about my experience at Hillsong church and also about my experience as an Au Pair and just Australia in general. So those posts should be coming up soon so be on the lookout! I feel like if I tell you guys now that I am going to be doing those posts then I will actually do them! So its more like self motivation.
Next up this weekend. Trip to Albury (Ash's hometown) for an engagement party with all his family and friends! YAY!
