The year of 2010

2010 will be remembered as the year we swapped a townhouse rental in our beloved beloved city Melbourne.....

....for our very own divine 1920's weatherboard in gorgeous small town New Zealand.

and now here we are, living a much more relaxed life...surrounded by beauty, and I am ready for whatever opportunities the wind blows our way.  I have goals and dreams for sure, but this year, I have no desire to write them down.  2010 taught me that whatever will be will be, when the time is ready, all will fall into place.  So this year, no stress about the what's and when's, more of the enjoying today...celebrating the moment, and being ready for the opportunities that present themselves.  

Happy New Year to you all!

The last and first...

Happy New Year!

 I have a feeling that this year is going to be even more wonderful with bigger dreams than 2009....well, it is more than just a feeling ~ it is a determination, a resolution if you care to call it that...to live in each moment, but to dream big for the next moment.

Above are the last polaroids taken in 2009, and below are the first for 2010. 

Cheers to 2010!

(The bike in the top photo was hired for the day from The Humble Vintage Bike Hire - I highly recommend this company, the service was fantastic and it was a lot of fun to ride around Melbourne on a vintage bike for a few hours!)

A Sneak Peek

I am a lucky girl.....this weekend I will be spending Saturday AND Sunday at the lovely Yarraville Market. I am so looking forward to having a table there both days, Lou is so passionate about her market and the local talent, as a result there is such a great vibe in the Hall. If you are in the area, I would love to see you!

I am also a very excited girl, as I am just putting the finishing touches on my 2010 calendar ~ here is a sneak peek at a few of the pages. It will be printed on a thick card stock, and presented in a jewel calendar case, like last years. I have gone for a whimsical theme this year - I was going to do a beach and blue sky theme, but decided I like the photos with the text as they help encourage me to get lost in the daydream.

And you all know I love to get lost in a daydream........
