I stayed in Warwick Farm on my way back from the snow and enjoyed some sweet puppy time the next morning. Gratuitous puppy shots below.
Lick attack!
Put me down, mum!

New Sunnies
I’ve taken my love of pink to a new, disturbing level. I bought these gorgeous pink Oakleys to take to the snow. I called the store in Melbourne yesterday and they arrived on my desk this morning. Awesome service, awesome glasses.
Retail Therapy
Here are a few of my recent fashion purchases. I went to the Birkinhead Point factory outlets today, which is where I picked up the FCUK and Alannah Hill items. The factory outlets are a bit hit and miss, but the Alannah Hill one always has awesome stock, heavily reduced. Their pieces are occasionally damaged, so be careful to check out the zippers and look for stains and tears. Who could damage such beautiful clothes? It breaks my heart!
Pretty Alannah Hill jumper. Love sale time!
FCUK singlets.
Sweet ballet flats from the Parisian Ballet sale – they took a while to arrive but it was worth the wait.
Very like the Chanel ones for a lot less.
Cute design.
Mimco bag – bought a few weeks ago during the Mimco sale. Do I have an addiction? I think it’s fair to say yes.

Aya and Matt’s Hens and Bucks Night
My first joint bucks and hens night was held tonight at the Great Northern Hotel.
The girls arrived for for dinner and gossip, while the boys got completely hammered at Daniel’s place. With bottles thrown, a PSP lost and one man down, they finally arrived at the Northern for a late dinner and more alcy-hol. Some steak-stealing, yelling, rapping and head-butting later, Alec and I head on home to watch the end of Forrest Gump.

Alec loves pink. A lot.
Bourne Fest
In preparation for the third Bourne movie, 13 of Alec’s friends and one brave girlfriend came over tonight for pizza and Matt Damon perving. Sorry, that was just me. 🙂

I’ve never seen so much pizza in my life.
Daniel is keen for a camera like mine. Here he is testing it out. Awesome self-portrait.
Hunter Valley Birthday Getaway
Alec took me to the Hunter to celebrate my birthday.
We stayed at The Carriages guest house … beautiful, quiet and cosy.
The Smelly Cheese shop. Yuuuuummmmmm.
Chocolate …
Accidental romantic self-portraits.
Peppers Winery – buying tasty dessert wine.
The Peppers Convent.
At Hunter Valley Central Gardens.
It was such a lovely weekend. Full of great food, tasty wine and the best company. Awesome birthday week! Thanks Alec 🙂
Testing, Testing
First shot from the new macro lens! Thanks Alec, you’re awesome 🙂 The beautiful flowers were a b’day gift from Will and Andrew.
I’m 28!
I had a great dinner last night with a few old friends at Baia.
Passionfruit and chocolate cake from Lindt provided by my amazing Alec.
Arriving at work this morning to find my desk covered in balloons and decorations. My amazing team took me out to lunch and gave me the cutest little pink iDog to play with.
Good day!
Old Video of Buffy and Kahlua
I found this cute video of my Havanese when Buffy was a puppy. So cute 🙂
Gwen Stefani Concert
Shelley and I saw Gwen at the Acer Arena on Monday night. Our seats were a bit in the nosebleed area, but still good enough for us to have a great time and enjoy the show.
Gwen looked amazing – so fit and toned! She gave quite a tame show, singing the songs off her most recent album. It would have been great to hear old favourites like “Just A Girl” and “Ex-Girlfriend”, but it wasn’t to be.
Shell and I realised we had been listening to Gwen for over 10 years now. Old!
This is what a full-house looks like!
End of the show.
