What's been happening?

I've realised I've neglected this blog for all of March - I can't believe its already April!

A few progressions in terms of wedding plans:

1) Katrina came over a few weeks back to show us her invitation designs and discuss colours. We really liked the simplicity of her designs and am so excited to start choosing papers and colours!! This leads me onto the next topic...

2) The guestlist has been finalised...it was tough and I'm sure it's going to change leading up to the wedding. But just glad it has been done. So far we are looking at approximately 90-100 guests.

3) We went to Justen's housewarming and we hadn't seen the lovely couple since they got married last year. We were amazed at their new place - it was really nice!! We also got to see their wedding photos which were really beautiful and I'm hoping mine turn out just as good! I also found out that Renee got a good deal on her flowers so I should also pursue a quote from her florist!

4) Today we attended marriage education which is a program run by Catholicare. It was very very helpful and raised many questions that Charlie and I should be discussing such as expectations of married life, children, sacrament of marriage, conflict resolution etc. I feel exhausted now though!! Here is a pic of Our Lady of Lourdes Church for those who haven't seen the church before...



And in case you were wondering - March was very busy because of dragonboat - we came third at state titles which was awesome considering it was my first women's sport crew race :D



Another thing is I've also started a detox yesterday and I am ALREADY craving chocolate and making a food list of the first foods I will be eating on Day 11 (the detox runs for 10 days!). I think the worse thing so far is just having to drink digestive bitters before each meal - tastes FOUL. Below is what I'm having for dinner tonight - wholegrain pilaf using quinoa - actually quite yummy!


Finally I have an assignment on Australian International Tax due in 8 days and I have barely started!! *gulp* Although since I will be away for a whole month in October, I am deferring my final two subjects, so this will be my last subject for 2010. Hopefully that will give me some sort of motivation...
