Spotlight Superstore!!!

So I caught up with my girlfriend Kylie for some much needed time away from the kids :) I dropped Max to kinder and Ben looked after Jayden for me while I went and indulged in some YUMMMMYYY Max Brenner waffles with chocolate, strawberries & icecream and a cookies and cream shake oooohhhh delicious!! Just what I needed!! Thanks to my wonderful husband Ben for having the kids and thanks to the beautiful Kylie for such lovely company :)

I then headed to the craft superstore spotlight which was a HUUUGGGEEE mistake lol. I wanted to pick up some supplies for the family tree I'm making for Ben's grandparents and ended up nearly buying the whole shop ekkk!! 

I have spent the afternoon reorganizing my craft table to fit all the new goodies I picked up at spotlight. I also started gluing sticks together to form my family tree, looks so good so far and can't wait to get some leaves onto it :)

I'll post a sneak peak pic at my wonderful craft table that my awesome husband put together using kitchen cabinets and a wooden table top! There is cupboards and draws on 3 sides with loads of space for all my crafty stuff :) I'm such a lucky wife! 

I am still in the processes of painting the bottom boards and I want to add some chalkboard paint to the front so I can write on it but It's still a work in progress & trying to find the time lol

Bits of the Wedding

I just wanted to make a post about all the crafty details at the wedding that I have mentioned in previous posts! I love little craft ideas and just a few cute ones that turned out so well...

Firstly our Wedding Guest Wishes; we decided to fill the suitcase that we used for our invitations with sand, shells and a little lantern. We pre-made our guest note cards and so each guest filled them out, popped them in an envelope and put them in the suitcase. It turned out really well.

Another thing I loved was these cute little hershey kisses that we made, we laid them out in a nice dish for the guests to help themselves :)

Clare and I had matching bracelets and just wanted to share some pics from the photographer :)

Getting Creative

Ok so all this baby talk in the last couple days has me wanting to shop and make a nursery but since we are still sooooo far away from finding out what we are having I decided to buy a surf duvet cover I have been eying off at Adairs Kids for Jayden. It's so hard to find any nice surf stuff in a cot/toddler size! I bought this one in a single bed size and decided to get creative and cut it down :) I turned it into a toddle size duvet cover and toddler pillow! This way It's not a quilt and I can take it off and wash it easily :)

Jayden is still in a cot just until we move into our new place in a couple months and we can set up his toddler bed, which is the same size mattress but just doesn't have rails. We thought it may be a nice transition for him since that's what we did with Max when we moved into out Nowra house.

Anyway I thought I would share some pics, I love how it's come out :)

 

Baby No.3

Ahhhhh so yesterday I was due for my monthly and no sign! It runs like clockwork each month so I decided to take a test even though I wasn't technically late yet hahaha. Everyone was talking about how I could be pregnant with a honeymoon baby even though I wasn't late for my period but it had me paranoid so anyway so be it... 

Ben wasn't home for the news but I rang him, work decided to keep him 5 extra days and I was waaaayyyy to impatient to wait to tell him hahaha! We are both thrilled but still early days, so only a few selected people know and the family and rest of our friends will find out once we have an ultrasound picture :) 

Photo Jar

Ok so as soon as I received our wedding photo's I had to get started on a wonderful idea I first came across on pinterest :) I wanted to do my own version of the photo jar because I absolutely loved the idea :) Using the sand, driftwood, rocks, etc from the beach where we were married and some cute craft cut outs from the craft store which have nice sayings on them and large jar from target with some rafia string around the top :) It is a lot larger then it looks and I love it! it's sitting nicely on my shelf and everyone that comes over say how amazing it is :) 

Wedding Video

We just received our wedding video and it is so beautiful. Andre from Poetry in Motion has done such an exceptional job I can't believe how well it's come out :) No words can describe how happy we are! He has truly captured such a special moment and turned it into something we can cherish forever.

OUR SPECIAL DAY!!

Officially MRS MCGREGOR here :) Ok so the day was perfect everything was amazing, I really don't know what to say other then I have truly married the one I love :)

Here are some sneak peek photo's from the photographer, there are way to many to put them all in a post but I will try and add them to my website gallery eventually :)
