Friday night fiesta!

A sneaky photo steal from here. More photos to come.

We treated our families, bridal party, partners and MCs to a Mexican Fiesta at Smurf Haus on Friday night. It was a little thank you for all their love and support and kicked off 'Wedding Week' celebrations. There were pinatas and everything!

7 sleeps baby!

The Wedding Files: Behind the scenes

It's very late at night and I should be asleep, but who can sleep when they are getting married so soon?!

We've been working hard getting the final details of our wedding sorted. We've taken over our dining room table with lots of paper and fabric and string, and my bedroom and the spare room, (and my brother's room!!) are housing important items like my wedding dress and wedding shoes. It's all systems GO!

Here's a sneak peek behind the scenes - without giving too much away ;)

The Wedding Files: Scouting out photo locations

Ah! So much happening, so little time to record it all!

Last weekend we went exploring. 'Finalise photography locations' was the next item on our shrinking to-do list, and it was a beautiful afternoon to get scouting. We've found some gorgeous (secret) spots and can't wait to get photos taken as husband and wife.

Will whipped out my iPhone and I twirled in the sunshine.

It was all fun and games until I got attacked by a bug. Will caught me part way through the classic Fraser-eye-lid-flutter...

Classy, right?

Sometimes he brings me flowers...

... sometimes he brings me vegetables carved into animal shapes!

And by sometimes, I mean it's only happened once, on Sunday, when this little fella showed up in a cardboard box. What a cutie!

Our house is haunted...

...by the ghost of a very tall smurf.

Recently, we have spent a lot of time turning the Smurf House into a home (for Smurfs humans). Trips to Lifeline, trips to Ikea and me going on and on and on about a bedspread I've ordered from the States. If my current obsession is anything to go by, Will has a lifetime of linen conversations to endure look forward to. Lucky man.

It is such a wonderful little house though, with a lot of personality. I guess no house with blue walls throughout the inside and the outside could ever be called dull.

There are blooming rose bushes in the backyard that provide fresh flowers every day, and if the breeze on the front deck is anything to go by, it will be a glorious summer house. 28 days until I move in, and it can't happen fast enough!

Our latest effort in our attempt to eat our way around Brisbane - Guzman y Gomez. It's where all the cool kids go!
