Here’s one I whiped up the other night about Aaron’s suprise 21st.

Dad’s birthday today so it’s a family dinner. Roast. My favourite.

Aaron’s birthday today. Am hoping that we might be able to pop around and give him his present-o. Will have to see though, what time Luke finishes music practice.

Will post photos of the family affair.

So this is my special dedication to Rachel, who helped with all our moving on Monday, and then when ‘the car incident/ accident’ happened on Monday arvo she was over at our old place cleaning! Then last night helped clean again. And we were cleaning for HOURS last night. And to top it off she buys pizza on the way back to our new place. She is ADORABLE, and I am indebted to her. Last night I realised how much I don’t deserve a friend like her- someone who is willing to sacrifice her time and effort, and time with her sister (Kathryn- who helped us clean), just because we’re friends, and I needed help. I am seriously in awe, and this little paragraph in no ways explain how grateful I am, or how much I am amazed at your commitment, friendship, loving heart, and specialness! I am seriously trying to find some way to thank you properly.

Oh, can I also give a big shout out to Kathryn, who was an excellent cleaner! She came over to clean, and I am very, very thankful!

Thanks to Carmen, who was the first one to help us clean, and when I had messaged her to ask if she could help she so quickly replied ‘yes’ and sounded so excited! You really gave me hope, Carms, that this whole cleaning thing would be okay.

Jeff deserves a huge shout-out as well. He helped us clean all the places we forgot, and then after dinner, at our new place, he washed up!! I am so blessed to have a friend like that as well!!

Thank you to my husband as well, who did all the little things on the list I gave him yesterday- including the washing up, and finding some plates in a box. And thank you Luke for taking responsibility with me for cleaning our old place. I really appreciate you and the way you look after me- especially when I have nose issues at night, and feel like I’m dying. I love you.

THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Oh, and thanks to Aaron for coming to eat Pizza with us and play Absolute Boulderdash. haha.

Our bedroom is the only finished part of the house, so everything else is just scattered in the enourmous space we have (it’s taking a bit of getting use to!) Mum and Luke are painting the last wall of the lounge room today, and then there’s the floors to do- but it should be done by the end of the week!! Then we’re on our way to doing the main area- kitchen, study, living area, dinning area. Which is exciting!

We had some great friends, Rachel, Aaron, Pete and Jordan who helped us move yesterday. Thanks guys!! Rachel did some cleaning as well, which was a real blessing! Pete took some photos of the move, which you can view here.

Oh, and Luke had a little accident in our car… no one’s hurt, but if you could all pray (or do just whatever you do!) that it doesn’t cost us heaps and heaps, and that it gets fixed quickly, that would be great!! Thanks. xox.

And my mum showed me this awesome thing today: http://www.simplesavings.com.au Check it out!
