Birthday Celebrations - Sasha & Tepaea

Day 111 – Sat 19^th Nov – Alfie Dog

Wow hard choice today – it seems I either take one or two photos or I take hundreds!!!  Today was a bit epic – I spent the morning in the garden (which I’m slowly getting on top of!!!) then went to a mini festival thing with the BFF and her kids before heading up to antoher good friends house for a BBQ.  The afternoon was spent in the pool drinking beers and chilling out.  It was such a lovely evening and I took heaps of photos – many of which are blurred (possibly due to the number of wines consumed…and the fact I’m trying to shoot manual focus more often than not these days).  Most of the photo’s of the kids I don’t really want to post as they are half naked and I'm so far behind in posting this. I chose alfie dog as my main subject for the day as I just love this photo – he is such a cute puppy and I just like the angle of this photo. 

Day 112 – Sun 20^th Nov – Cousins

Drove down to Sydney today to hang with my cousin’s.  It was the lovely cheeky Miss Tepaea’s 3^rd Birthday during the week so I had promised her a day of playtime – we ate ice cream, swam in the pool and played games all afternoon and it was just lovely.  Miss Tepaea loves pulling faces for the camera and posing for me which is great – this is 3 of my gorgeous cousines posing while they are enjoying ice cream. 

November

Wow - it's hard to believe it is November already.  Ok a quick wrap up of the week.

Monday 31st Oct - New Dresses

I went shopping on the weekend, I was feeling good about myself and just decided to blow it and take some money out of my savings and get some new clothes.  So for under $200 I got 3 dresses, a work top, singlet and a pair of shorts - not a bad effort hey.  I could have spent more but fortunately the shop that I liked the remainder of the clothes didn't do layby - oh well their loss!!

Tuesday 1st November

Melbourne Cup Day - I probably should have taken a photo of the race but I didn't think about it.  I had an ADO today (yay) and spent the day with the fam having lunch at my cousin's house which was brilliant.  Today's photo is my cousin Tepaea - I know the lighting is terrible in this shot and I forgot to change my ISO back from 1600 so it is a bit grainy (whoops). But she is the most beautiful little girl and she cracks me up.  This is a typical face that she pulls for photo's and she loves getting up close to the camera. Didn't win on the cup but my sister won $1000!!!!

Wednesday 2nd November

Whoops didn't take many photo's today - this was taken on my way to work, I was trying to capture the sunlight through the trees - not the best photo I've taken but it's a pretty spectacular tree!!
