SKYDIVE !!!!

As a gift for my Birthday Dane got me a skydive.. I have been wanting to do it for ages and it was soooo worth the wait.  Wow, what an awesome experience!! The free fall was an amazing feeling...and when you sitting on the edges of the plane and then just kind of drop out!..it was sooo much fun :o)

Once the shoot was out the instructor showed me how to 'steer' and I did it for awhile...at about 4000feet and then he took over and started to spiral down really fast..at which point I actually felt a bit sick!...but it was a smooth landing and I would definitely do it all over again!

A Change is as good as a holiday...

Life has been so hectic the past few weeks...I think it started when I began work at Ignition Tv and snow balled since then...busy during the week with edits and shoots and away every weekend! East London, Durbs, Mpumalanga...was nice to take a breather on the farm and as you can see (below) I hav tried to catch up on my blog posts which have been pretty much non existent this month.

And things will continue to be manic for awhile, I think as we are moving back to Durbs !! MOVING BACK TO DURBS..yay!!! I am so excited to be heading home again..especially with Kay having her baby toward the end of August.  (ITS A BOY!!, by the way...so exciting!!!) and hoping there will also be some wedding planning to be done this year and it would hav killed me to be away for these two big events in the lives of people who are so special to me!  Although I am sad to be so far from Mark, Nic and the girls in Nelspruit, it has been so nice being closer and getting together so often.  We have really enjoyed our time with them..but as I said..will just have to plan more holidays together :o)

Well there are lots of details to be ironed out..but the basic jist of it...is that we are looking at buying a small business in Hillcrest (as a side line thing with Dane's parents) and Dane will continue to work for BalmOral out of Durbs, which will be on a trail basis for the next two months to see if it works out.  As for me..bit sad as I was offered a permanent position at Ignition tv here in Jhb and I have not got anything lined up as yet in Durban..but just trusting the Lord with this whole change in our lives!

So thats news!!..movers come on the 6th April and we should be out of here by the 10th, eeek, so my to do..so little time!..i better get on with it...

Birthdays at the farm

Over the long weekend we went to the farm to celebrate a bunch of Birthdays..me, Wayne, Matty and Gabriella.  Doug joined us..after a 18hr bus ride frm CT !! -madness, but was great to have him too :o)  We had a lovely spit braai..but got a bit rained out (as u can see all the boys huddled under the umbrella) but was still fun.
Took some family photos..the kids were the hardest..my word, actually didn't end up getting one of them all smiling so had to cheat it a bit in photoshop ;o)
Miss P always looks like a princess..i just love taking photos of her...she is so pretty (we all know where she gets it from!)
