6 1/2 weeks to go!!
Time ticks by, quite quickly it seems, which means the wedding is getting closer! However, we did take time out from wedding preparations in the past week to celebrate my birthday! Celebrations may not have been as large as they have been in the past but I did very well for myself. I baked a cake for morning tea at work, which seemed to disappear quiet quickly. At lunchtime, it was the annual BBQ at Hawkstowe Park. It was a lovely sunny afternoon, so about 23 of us headed out into the sunshine for a sumptuous lunch - thanks to all who provided something. See photo below, with chefs slaving over the BBQ in the distance. Later that night, Dad also cooked a very fine meal, complete with a taste of the sparkling wine we have ordered for the wedding. A fine way to celebrate the life of Tracey!
So this week has been another exciting week for wedding plans. The honeymoon is paid for so Cocos Keeling Islands here we come! http://www.cocos-tourism.cc/ We're doing invitations this week to the aftermath BBQ, because although our wish is to keep the wedding ceremoney and reception intimate, we'd love to have as many people as possible at the BBQ the next day. Still got to sort out travel - cars and bus. But we have been able to tick a few things off the list in the last week, so that's a bonus. And I'm sure Dave played his role of Best Man to perfection last Friday night during the Bucks Night Planning Session!
