I Said Yes To The Dress!

1 Year 9 Months until the wedding... And I said yes to the dress!!

It was so spontaneous too. My sister and I were going to Aldi when we came across a little bridal boutique. We thought it was a warehouse but when we stepped inside it was a beautiful bridal shop. The lovely assistant Jess said we were free to look around, so we made a start. Within minutes I was wowed by some beautiful dresses. But I saw one and it reduced me to tears. There were also 2 other dresses I really loved too. So I made a note of the 3 dresses and vowed to make an appointment to go back and try them on.

I went back the next day 😂
I had told my mum about the dresses and she said she wanted to see them. We returned to the shop and I was surprised to see my dad had come too! Jess was very surprised to see me back within 24 hours and managed to do me a same day fitting. How exciting!

I filled out a form which asked details about the wedding and then I got to try the dresses on. The first dress was lovely, but I knew it wasn't The One. The second dress I put on fit perfectly! And this wasn't the dress that reduced me to tears the previous day. But I felt perfect in it! And when my parents and sister saw me, their reactions was exactly what I wanted. However I still had to try on the dress I'd fallen in love with. But when I tried it on, I knew it wasn't the dress for me.

I stepped back into the second dress and it just confirmed what I already knew. This was my dress. And I knew nothing would come close to it.

The lovely Jess sorted a payment plan for me and I will have ,y beautiful dress by Christmas this year! I will have to hide it my parents house as OJ will want a sneak peak haha.

It's exciting to know the next time I'm in the dress, I'll be becoming OJ's wife!

Guest Post: Pregnancy Journey by Life Coach Sam

This weeks pregnancy journey is by Samantha Abraham . Her journey had me laughing and i'm sure you will do the same! I gave birth to my beautiful baby number 5 at the beginning of January this year. I have 2 boys aged 21 and 8 years as well as 2 girls aged 7&5. Baby No.5 came as a huge but pleasant surprise after having decided not to have any more and quitting my job to create a start-up. Having passed the stages of denial I finally take a pregnancy test... Reality sets in and my husband and I are now passed staring at each other in silence which goes on to last a couple of months.   This eventually moves into us having conversations about our worries and what we need to do to plan for this.... unplanned, untimely pleasant little gift with the power of scaring us half to death!!! ... At some point among the madness, we do the maths and work out as tradition would have it....our little gift really was a gift!!!...as in that we worked out th...

Studies Come To A Halt

So I have decided to give up my plan to go to university. Before you all scream not to quit, let me explain. Quick re-cap. I had planned to go to university next year to study Events Management, gain experience and open my own business. I started an Access course in November last year and was doing so well. Yes it was difficult but I wasn't expecting it to be plain sailing. I took 3 months study break when I had May-May and then started back. And the stress began. My mind went blank with every assignment, I struggled to understand information and I would stress myself out so much. This continued for 2 months and I thought how on earth will I carry on? I sat down with OJ and he said to me “Mics, why are you still going to university?” I told him I needed to go to open my business and gain more experience. “No you don't. Your business is up and running, you are gaining experience by booking small events. You're only doing this access course to get you into uni, ...

The Journey Begins!

Everyone has a reason why they blog and here is mine. My goals in life are: Get married and have another baby  Gain a degree in Events Management Have my own Events business Buy a house Be financially comfortable I have planned and executed a few event's successfully but I want to have my own company. But doing this comes from experience. To gain experience I need to work as a manager. This includes having a degree. So I found a distant learning course that allows me to gain my Diploma in Business. Once I gain my Diploma, I can apply for university and get my degree. Woohoo!🎉🎉 So I had my plan. Then I found out I was pregnant. Oh the excitement was unreal! I have always wanted to be a mum and it was finally happening! But then I panicked😕 How do I study with a baby? I went online to see if there were any student mum bloggers out there. I read a few but thought no point worrying until princess got here. 5 months later my wonderful partner OJ proposed to me i...
