Blessed!

I have been truly blessed this last week! On Thursday last week I found out that I had been successful in the Gallipoli 2015 Ballot and had received a Double Pass to attend the Dawn Service & Lone Pine Service celebrating the Centenary of ANZAC!!! I am truly blown away and excited that I would be one chosen out of 43,000+ that were in the Ballot. It also allows me to share it with Dad who has always wanted to go and this makes me happy! So Dad and I are heading to Gallipoli next year! (now to save for it haha).

Also this week I had the SA Mary Kay Quarterly Awards and took home numerous prizes including Unit Queen and State Queen of Sales plus I also moved up to Team Manager which is one step away from my goal of Director. I truly love the company, they are wonderful to work for and so giving. If you want to read more about that night  go to my makeup blog at http://makeupbybecr.blogspot.com.au/2014/04/dreams-stars.html.

So Easter is coming, it seems a little later this year but it is coming. What does that mean to you? For many it means too much chocolate, family, holidays (I am definitely looking forward to these!) but there is a reason for it. Only reflecting and celebrating on the most heroic act ever done for us! Jesus gave his life for each and everyone of us so that we can be free. I love the music written about this amazing act and I get to sing so much of it. This year is no different, Soul Factor present their Easter Concert "Calvary, Oh Calvary" this Sunday evening the 13th at 7pm. It is a truly beautiful and uplifting array of music to help you get ready for Easter. There are some tickets still available so get to our website to book, you do not want to miss it!

For Easter this year I will be the special guest artist at the Belgrave Easter Convention in Victoria. I am looking forward to singing for and sharing with all the attendees of this conference over the 4 days. I would appreciate your prayers as this is a big weekend for me and I pray that God speaks through my music.

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow....

"There's a bright golden haze on the meadow....." Yes there is! Emma Knights Productions Oklahoma! on a Farm is BACK for its fourth season and opens this Thursday. If you have been reading my blog for a while, you will know that this is a special production and the role of Laurey is one I love to play! This year is the 75th Anniversary of the Production of Oklahoma! and so it is wonderful to be performing it again in the same year. Although in rather milder weather! The Farm, Four Oaks at Littlehampton is beautifully green and bursting with life. The animals are in full voice as in the wonderful cast. Immerse yourself in this unique family-friendly experience, a beloved classic with live horses, windmill, and a country fair of delicious treats & wares. If the last 3 seasons feedback is anything to go by, you will LOVE IT!! If you have seen it before, you will know what I am talking about and you should tell others. Or come along again and bring some new fr

All Shook Up!

I am blessed. A week ago I got back from an amazing singing trip. Cruising the seas, performing with amazing musicians and performers, 16 shows in 7 days, plenty of food and a ton of laughs - I am still smiling. The Cruise 'N Groove Elvis Meets the Legends Cruise was a fantastic week. I had never been on a cruise before so it was quite an experience, I loved the food and the weather was fantastic (only a bit of rockiness to contend with) and we visited Mare and Noumea in New Caledonia.  I am reasonably new to the Elvis world and so this was an eye opener for that as well but I actually loved it. Elvis fans are exceptionally passionate and in some ways quite a wonder.  I was on this trip as a backing vocalist with the Tributes in Concert Band or TIC Band and we backed all of the headlining Elvis Tribute Artists. So to the band first, what a privilege it was to perform with them. Each and everyone of them super talented (to the point, that I would get caught watching them at t

MMMBop and road trip classics 😉

Road trip singalongs are the best! Do you agree?  What are your favourite songs to sing? Do you have specific lists or eras or styles of music you listen/sing to?  For me it usually depends who I am travelling with but nothing beats a good 80s/90s song list.... So last weekend I was on a road trip to Halls Gap with my sister, my brother in law and my niece and nephew. We had a fabulous time singing away the hours to many a favourite. Of course the kids occasionally asked for a song they knew but we thought it was important we listened to the classics haha 😜 We headed to Halls Gap for NanaFest 2019! A weekend to celebrate the 90th Birthday of my Nana Dawn. Staying in cabins and tents the family came from Victoria and SA and shared a weekend of catching up, a party, jumping pillows and bonfires. I do love my family, there is a a lot of us and it is lovely to see the all the generations interacting and enjoying each others company. We had wonderful weather and my sister
