The wedding...

So as I've said in earlier posts this weekend I had the honour of being a bridesmaid to my friend Charlene yesterday. The day went really really well. We started off early to have our hair and make up done before getting laced up in our gorgeous red dresses (I don't have a decent photo of the dress but it's this one, here) and helping Charlene into her stunning dress. Because the wedding was being held at the Capricorn Caves which is a bit out of town they decided to have the photos taken before the ceremony. The last of the pre-wedding photos was a big group family shot however...there was a surprise...everyone was all grouped and ready for the photo when Charlene announced to everyone that they had actually eloped in September last year!!!! So they've secretly been married for over a year now!!! Cheeky sneaky's!! I was impressed that they could keep that huge and exciting of a secret for so long. Lucky she didn't tell me hey. LOL. So anyway, after the dust settled we headed off to the caves for renewal of their vows in front of their family and friends.Charlene did a fantastic job of organising everything and it all looked staggeringly beautiful. Unfortunately I don't have too many photos to show but this is part of the bridal table decoration...Chalene had made rectangular boxes out of old coloured glass louvers for the table decorations which she had stamped and then filled the base with tealights and black polished stone and the placecard holders were the most gorgeous little metal pumpkin carraiges filled with M&M's.Here are Charlene & Aaron cutting the cake...And these are a couple of the girls from work, Camille & Ann along with Charlene and the back of my head. As I've already said Charlene did a beautiful job of organising everthing and it all looked stunning. I'm very honoured to have been invited to be a special part of their 2nd wedding. Congratulations Aaron and Charlene.

Jack's first sleepover with Grandma of course went fabulously. I was a bit worried that he'd keep her up all night but apparently he went to sleep very quickly which was a relief. He didn't want to come with us this morning. He wanted to keep playing with Grandma.

This morning we attended the baptism of our friends Michelle & Greg's beautiful daughter Heidi. Dosn't she look beautiful in her dress.

Jack's little friend Ollie looking very cute and cheeky.After the baptism we all headed to the sailing club for lunch and then the Bruckner's joined us at the beach for a bit of a play at the beach. I can't believe the difference in Jack since his whole 2 swimming classes. He was lying in the water and getting splashed in the face and swallowing water and doing fine!! He normally would have freaked out the second water touched his face.Jared, Charlotte & David.
Building sandcastles.So there you go, that was our weekend. :)

Oh & check out this unreal Halloween bathroom and here are some of her other decorations. How cool!
