This is where I expect Dave will spend quite a bit of his time
I guess this is where you'll find me!!
If not here!!!
sorry...
On the seventh day of the seventh month, of the year 2007 Melinda and Michael were married. It was a beautiful ceremony held in St Johns church, Geraldton. Being a July wedding the weather was possibly going to be a worry, but with 07,07,07 considered to be a very lucky day it seemed almost fate that the weather was immaculately perfect, no wind, and not at all cold. The day was magic.
The bride to be, being a master event planner, had thought of everything and had created many gorgeous details, from bowls of pink marshmellow hearts and pink and brown M&M's, pearl earring gifts to fireworks on the night, nothing was too much for this event!! However, being told that you're to do a speech moments before the bride arrives, does make one wonder about some of the planning for the bigger details!!!! (thanks Mel!)
The venue was spectacular, giving visitors to Geraldton a view of the beautiful beaches and sunsets from the balcony of the brand new surf club, the food was great, the MC, Lou, was the best - with his hysterical poems about the happy couple, there was lots of dancing, quite a few games, speeches and fun - and after the speeches the lucky bride was told, as were we all, where her secret honeymoon destination would be - Vietnam.
It was the perfect wedding that any girl would dream of... We wish much happiness to you both!
How long have we all waited to get our revenge on this "queen of cringe" the "instigator of shame"
... too long
and I am not sure we're all quite finished yet..
this little pooch was so excited when he knew we were pulling into Dandaragan, .. his home away from home!
As Margie's garden is so great to hunt bugs in, and chase birdies and generally have fun free reign! 
Yes Oscar likes to live on the wild side..... however posing with pretty rose bushes is not really high on his list of priorities - so consequently he doesn't look so pleased with me.... BUT HE LOOKS SOOOOO CUTE AND ADORABLEI might send a copy to the Alsation down the street.
We joined Helen, Dene and Jordan - all of us staying with Margie & Hazza. 
Colleen, Johnno and the girls, Emily and Amber came for tea on Saturday night 
Early Mothers Day morning while Margie and Hazza went to church - the boys organised a "Berrington" Breakfast (pancakes on the BBQ) After a little refinement of the recipe (by Hel's) they did very well and were very tasty
afterwards we went out to the farm and had Emily and Amber drive us around
we fed the cows
and looked at the sheep
Margie said she was very happy to have all her chicks around her for Mother's Day - and it really was a lovely weekend! :)
Oh! While we were there we finally cut the top tier of our wedding cake!!
awww happy days..
Of course no camping trip would be quite right without some attempt at Fishing, and although we were not overly inundated with fish, the boys did catch a couple. Including this spectacular sunset display! (The best catch by far) 
Mark-o again entertained us (and the rest of the beach) when he and Dave managed to construct a long tow rope off the back of Neil's 4 wheeler and risking Neils board to 'skurf' along the beach. I think he managed to do this once or twice successfully and this is when I got my photo! (note the dog Dozer in the background frantically trying to keep up with his master!)
Little miss Chanelle celebrated her very first birthday 
Today Dave and I drove to Dongara to attend my friend Summers wedding to Daniel. The day was perfect, lovely backdrop and, of course, she looked stunning. 
Dave and I haven't seen most of our Rellies since our wedding nearly a year ago. It was great to catch up with all my Aunties and Uncles and cousins.We also really enjoyed staying with Ian and Tracy and the kids, We all had a nice sunday lunch at the Deep water Point Cafe.
good times.
