:: Brisbane - A Guest Post ::

When you hear the word 'Australia', what do you think of? Kangaroos? Emus, maybe? Sydney Opera House? Me too. Australia has some very iconic animals and landmarks, which is part of what makes this island so special. Whenever I first mention I'm from Brisbane to my penpals, most of them admit to either not knowing about it at all, or knowing very little about it. I kind of like that about Brisbane, it's a bit of an untapped gem.
Brisbane has some amazing sights to see, and I talk about a few of them of at Lindsay Eyrn's blog. Lindsay is on her way home from Korea and is doing a feature on 'home' and she asked me to write about the place I call home! See my post here!






I want to thank you all for your patience while I recover from my recent illnesses. I still find it hard to get through a whole week of work, so things like blogging and writing to pen pals get pushed aside in favour of sleeping. I hope to have a lot of wonderful photos to share with you all soon!

:: A Toy Story Second Birthday ::

My nephew turned two at the end of September and my sister threw him the cutest Toy Story themed birthday. He loves Buzz and Woody, and by 'loves' I mean - 'is obsessed with'. The only time he doesn't want to watch Toy Story is when he decides he wants to watch Cars, which is his other favourite movie.

My sister doesn't want photos of my nephew online, but I can show you some of the super cute details. My favourite are the alien cupcakes - soooo cute!!

See what I mean? SO cute!!
The Buzz pinata was made by a family friend, isn't it amazing! They have also made us an Ariel pinata and a Nemo pinata.

I love themed parties! I'm turning 30 early next year and I'm planning on having a 1920s themed lawn party. I can't wait! What is your favourite theme for a party?
