:: Blog Award ::

A few months ago (okay, back in October last year :/) the lovely Jess from the beat my heart skips passed on the above award to me. Thank you so much, Jess! With this award I am supposed to share with you ten things that I love. So, in no particular order, here they are!

1. Weddings
What's not to love about weddings? The whole day is full of love, laughter and frivolity!
This photo was from when I was maid-of-honour for my younger sister.

This photo is from when I was a bridesmaid for my sister-in-law.

This photo is, obviously, from our wedding!

2. Stationery
I adore stationery - stickers, pencils, pens, journals, writing sets - you name it, I love it!
This photo was taken at a bookbinding/stationery store in Melbourne. They had journals in every colour of the rainbow - I was in stationery heaven.

3. Photography
Over the past few years I've slowly been getting into photography. I have a long way to go, but I'm loving every second of it.
This photo was taken for a local ballet studio. I have recently found out that my photos will be used for advertising their new studio!

4. Mr LG
When I say I love him, I mean it. Those three words have my life in them.

5. Sunrise
In the sunrise vs sunset debate, I'm definitely a sunrise girl. The serene stillness of the world during a sunrise calms me for the rest of the day.
This photo was taken at Golden Beach, Caloundra overlooking the tip of Bribie Island.

6. Hanson
I am still a huge fan and they are still my favourite band. I'm a lost cause!
This photo was taken in 2004 after their Sydney concert. Everyone in this photo flew down from Brisbane to see them. I'm in the green top on the right, my younger sister is up the back on the left between Zac and Taylor.

7. Messy Curls
My favourite hair style, it looks goods on everyone!

8. Photo booths
Yay, photo booths!
My brother and sister-in-law had a photo booth at their wedding and it was SO much fun! One strip was given to the people having their photos taken, and one strip was put into a guest book that we could write next to! Such a great idea.

9. Collar Popping
I have a soft spot for popped collars. A few years ago I went through a huge popped collar stage, so much so that people I'd met through blogs would start taking photos of themselves with popped collars for me!
Pop it like it's hawt!

10. Random Hearts
I love finding love hearts in random places. As Love, Actually tells us - Love really is all around us.

I'm passing this award on to:
K from The Body Electric
Claire from My Little Life
Karina from Ramblings of a Simple Girl

Happy Monday!

PS. Thank you so much for the positive support for my new gluten free blog :)

    I am quite stationary obsessed too. I like to make my own, so I rarely buy it, but I could walk around the stores for hours, looking at the pretty colors, prints, and textures.
    Lovely!

    Haha we really are very much alike. Stationery of course. And the sunrise. That's my fave too. Back in school I said I wanted to get married at sunrise :)

    Messy curls oh yes please. I always do that when my hair doesn't work.

    Hanson! I think I only got over them because I have no idea. I'm sure I would still love them. x
