    a dreamy song for a dreamy afternoon.

    "There are those who think that I’m strange


    They would box me up and tell me to change

    But you hold me close and softly say


    That you wouldn’t have me any other way"

    all my children


    Life is peculiar in a wonderful way sometimes. earlier today i started thinking about the sweet letters lots of bloggers write to their future husbands. I am a huge believer in passing down advice and wisdom to the generations to come. So i then began to ponder about writing letters to my future children.

    well, sure enough- when i was exploring the blog-o-sphere later today i stumbled upon this new site "advice for all my children". it is quite interesting & honest. i really fancy it.
    here are some of my favorites so far:

    What advice would you give?

    His love is sweet.

    I love this quote!

    P.D


    Girl im in love with you
    This ain't the honeymoon
    Past the infatuation phase
    Right in the thick of love
    At times we get sick of love
    It seems like we argue everyday

    We're just ordinary people
    We don't know which way to go
    Cuz we're ordinary people
    Maybe we should take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
    This time we'll take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
    This time we'll take it slow

    This ain't a movie no
    No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
    It gets more confusing everyday
    Sometimes it's heaven sent
    Then we head back to hell again
    We kiss and we make up on the way

    Cuz we're ordinary people

    I love this couple!

    This is my perfect idea of life!


    My Dad!


    My dad explaining diabetes to me.

    Dad-“Insulin which comes from the Latin word Insula, meaning; small island; named from the fact that insulin is secreted in the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. You know, you should really learn Latin.”

    Britt “Why, it’s a dead language.”

    Dad “Because it’s the language that all languages are built upon, it’s important to know the origins of the works you speak.”

    Britt “I think in this day and age, you should just be happy that I know what the word is and can say it without dribbling.”

    Dad “Good point”


    When you go somewhere, go with all your heart. Love B xx





    Ive had a truly great week. The boyf surprised me with a weekend at the lovely Watermark Hotel to celebrate our 9mths of love. We ate our favourite restaurants, sipped cocktails at the Q1 and just enjoyed each others company.
    One Sunday, it was my Mum's 51st birthday, and Paul and I drove up to my wonderful friend Tracey to pick up the elephant for the top of Mum's cake {Please see pictures} Paul and I cooked dinner and bake the cake from scratch {I scratched open the box and baked} Then after we were all full, we sat around and played cards.

    It was a lovely weekend filled with love and laughter.

    10 things I learnt this week

    1. I really need to adhere to the Redbull two can maximum.

    2. Garlic and honey does more than keep the vampires away.

    3. Seeing the good in everyone ultimately makes you a better person.

    4. When a store has a back in 5mins sign, it is often a lie.

    5. Three of my friends got engaged this week... wedding fever!!
    6. I am actually really excited about the gym opening.
    7. Ive become quite addicted to really really B grade TV series.
    8. I love being in a relationship, but I don't know if I'm any good at it. I wonder if others feel this way.
    9. Grocery shopping with an ipod make the experience special and relaxing.
    10. There is no point worrying about things that you cant control.

    These cute photos warmed my heart. What a special moment to have captured on film, I especially love the second photo and the look on her face!
    Love one another and you will be happy. It’s as simple and as difficult as that – Michael Leunig

    16 things about women!

    1. Nothing says "I love you" like thoughtful, unsolicited little gifts on days that aren't "special"--anniversaries, birthdays, Christmas, Valentine's Day.

    2. Our job is just as stressful/serious/significant as yours.

    3. There is no such thing as too many shoes. Ditto to the perfect little black dress.

    4. One lie spoils a thousand truths. Once discovered, it will be stored in long-term memory for later retrieval.

    5. Sometimes the earth doesn't move. And no, you're not going to be able to tell when it doesn't.

    6. A great haircut can give us a new lease on life. A bad one is not to be trivialized, minimized or joked about.

    7. We are going to be upset with you and yes we are going to expect you to know exactly what we are thinking.

    8. Women will always compare themselves to other women; ex-girlfriends, your female friends and especially your mother.

    9. Some of us prefer boxing to yoga. None of us actually likes Pilate's.

    10. We go to the bathroom together because we are talking about you. Simple as that.

    11. Call us back right away. That 'three day' crap does not apply. We're getting older and we don't have time to screw around. Wait too long and we'll lose interest. Trust me on this one.

    12. We'd much rather try on bras than see them on surgically altered, airbrushed supermodels, but we know how much you enjoy the lingerie catalog. Consider it a gift.

    13. When we ask you what outfit we should wear- humor us with an answer. However, expect us to go with the one you didn't choose.

    14. Supersecret: Unless we're blind or have no night-light in the bathroom, the whole toilet-seat thing is exaggerated and meant to control you.

    15. Men who wear sunglasses at night don't look cool, rich or sexy. They look as though they should be following a dog or holding a cane.

    16. We like flowers, we like jewelery, we like diamonds... big diamonds and to this day, I cannot figure out why!

    17. And last but not least, we can tell a lot about a man from the shoes that he wears... choose carefully!

    I love my Dad!

    *Sitting on the couch with Dad, watching Origin*

    Me-“So dad, who won last time.”

    Dad-“Britt? Really? Queensland won; in fact they have won the last four years.”

    Me- “Oh. Are they allowed to tackle like that?”

    Dad-“yes.”

    Me- “that, what about that? Oh so they are meant to get it over that line for a point?”

    Dad-“ Yes, they have to get it over the try line; that’s what they call a try.”

    Me-“And a try is a point?”

    Dad-“No, three points makes a try”

    Me-“Gee, that’s confusing. Why are their shorts so little, I mean really.”

    Dad- “it’s just the way it’s always been… Britt, I love you and I appreciate this attempt to bond, but isn’t there a movie you would prefer to watch… in the other room?”
