Umhlanga

a little way up the road from us is Umhlanga, it was a lovely WINDY day....

Umdloti

views from our window

 now i'm no photographer, and our camera is a lovely but simple one so my pics are always just "hit or miss" but i thought to share them anyway...

i love all the shades of blue and grey

when it storms ~ it really storms!

 sunrise over the ocean is so strange to me... i'm used to sundowners on the beach, so it's very bright, very early but lovely all the same

and it's pretty cool at night too... pics are so wobbly they might hurt your eyes!!

have no idea why i don't have beautiful sunshiny day pictures (we have lots of those too) I'll make a plan to catch some of them...

do you like the view?

a real live princess

so beautiful!

 and here is a little something I made to wear on the big day, wore it with my favorite ruffled white shirt from Top Shop and my real pearl necklace and earrings, still had to run around after the boys and could only catch glimpses but it was awesome none the less...

(royal) wedding fever

roll around friday 29 april!

wish i was with my mom for a "royal tea" ~ will be thinking of you all day mom

expect squealy "did you see that" messages

are you able to do something fun?

will have to be very inventive at work so that i can SEE some of it!

happiness = princess wedding

too much of everything

too much mess

not enough order

 trying to be... (my hero)

and trying to get it right....
The Perils of Over-Praise
Building Self Esteem Without Overprasing

What little boys are made of

Tony Ross

what you doing?

I spent this amazing cool and rainy weekend doing some of the following....

 Worshiping my Saviour! What pure JOY!

Cleaning house and decluttering....also wishing I had a gorgeous twirly dress

swimming and swinging my kettlebell, oh hello muscles

so geared up for this week! probably helps that it's going to be a short one too, yay public holidays!

hope to do lots more lovely blogging 

*peace out*

(yes, i'm cheesy that way)
