Sky Diving!

Since yesterday was all about Simon, for his 21st Birthday I didn’t have much chance to check in on the blog. But here’s a recap of yesterday.

In his new sexy get up..

Just after finding out what exactly his present was..bit nervous as he signs forms.

Ready to go sky diving from 14,000ft!

Off in the limo to the airport. Nerves are out and excitement kicks in.

Lunch with the birthday boys, in-laws and mother. It was a DIY mexican fajita and I ended up eating most meat, picking off the cheese and chips and having 2 tortillas- tasty.

We then travelled two hours home, I had to get some uni stuff done before heading to Grill’d for a healthy burger and to the movies to see Iron Man 3- perfect way to round out his birthday celebrations. That is, until tonight when he heads out with his mates for a round of drinking and tomorrow night when his family comes down for a Birthday dinner- it’s been a week long of celebrations round here.

We haven’t had a cake yet per se, he did get a special chocolate cake at the Guylian Cafe last weekend at Sydney, and I brought him home his favourite Chocolate Lava Cake with a candle to have for dessert on his actual birthday (Wednesday 24th).

But I’ve got to grab a chocolate mud cake for Saturday night, since there will be a fair few there it’ll be nice to get a cake for everyone to share.

  • What is your birthday cake of choice?
  • Would you ever go skydiving? I’m too chicken I think, so I’d say probably not.

Happy International Happiness Day!

Happy International Happiness Day!

Hope you’re having a great day, full of happy memories, experiences and love.

I mean, how could you now on International Happiness Day right?

March 20th is the international happiness day- although us Aussies are ahead of the time (literally) so I’m celebrating it a day late. Better late than never.

I just want to say how important it is that we are happy at least once throughout our days. After being robbed of a real life by disordered eating, anxiety etc. I really wasn’t living and didn’t know what it was like to be truly happy.

So here’s to life and happiness- it’s worth it. Plus life is too short to not be happy.

Why are you happy today?
