I'll begin with my usual MMM card and then I'll move onto my wedding anniversary.
The pdf for March's card will be available to purchase from tomorrow.
This past weekend was my first wedding anniversary. Nat and I holidayed at home and sent the kids to stay with relatives for two nights. We had a great time and it was lovely to have uninterrupted adult time! One downside though, we both woke up at 8am on Saturday morning. That is a slight sleep in but with no kids to wake us up, it was a crazy time to be getting up. It did allow us to get an early start on the day, even if it meant we had to have nanna naps in the afternoon... a little sad, but yet again a nap without being woke up by yelling etc. was nice. We went to the strawberry farm in Main Ridge and OMG, they are the most divine strawberries there. It is almost the end of the main season so towards the end of the year I plan on heading back there with the rest of the family, they'll love it. Not to mention the Red Hill show that was on also (we didn't stop, only doing a drive by) but we did stop off at the Critenden Estate. It was the wine, Nat got me especially for our wedding (and what I have been saving for our anniversary) so it was ironic that we saw it as we drove past. We have been talking about having a meal at Sofias forever so tonight we finally did. Service was fast but as with many Italian eateries, it was quiet loud. That and we were also seated next to a table where a lady have a very loud laugh... We hired a couple of movies and settled in for a quite night at home. One of the movies we watched was "Whip It". Roller derby looks like loads of fun but I am a whimp and couldn't hack it so won't be trying it anytime soon! LOL, Saw "The Blind Side" at the movies and OMG, it was a fantastic movie. I can't wait to try and track down a copy of the book. Does anyone know if the book is actually called "The Blind Side?" Finished off the weekend with a quiet arvo at my mum's house catching up with my brother and celebrating my SIL's birthday.

I also made a small gift for Nat using an eyechart as inspiration. The message reads "Happy first wedding anniversary". It was my take on the 'paper' theme for first wedding anniversary.
I used the same paper that I made my name tags out of for the wedding (thank godness I had some left) and I plan on hanging it on the wall with a handmade canvas I made (featured here) along with the two wedding canvases currently hanging on the wall (they currently look a little naked and bare around them!) Wedding photos by Kipindi Photography. Also there is a sneak peak of some new products from the Autumn/Winter mini catalogue used on the eyechart frame. Any ideas what they might be???
