3 + 3

3 seems to be the number at the moment!

I turned 33 the other week, last weekend I had 3 rehearsals for 3 separate 3 girl harmony groups.

Well they do say things come in three's haha!!

So my birthday.....another year gone and gone quickly I might add but I have to say a great year!
This year my birthday fell on a Saturday which was handy and meant that of course I had to do something :)

Brunch dates! Thanks Val for the photo
So first of all it was a beautiful day, 30 degrees warm and sunny. I began the day with brunch with some of my beautiful friends from Soul Factor. Then I had a gelati date with my niece and nephew (my sis Lauren & Mum and Dad too) and to end the day my friends and I headed out for a "Burgers & Ballgowns" night!! Twas a fabulous night and it was great just to do something for my birthday.

Gelati dates with these cuties

Burgers & Ballgowns
That weekend was quite a big family one as my beautiful niece Eva was dedicated the next day. Just a small group of family and close friends of Liv & Jake got together to dedicate Eva and her life to God and to thank him for this precious gift that she is. Lauren did the ceremony and I sang, it was a beautiful afternoon.



I have had rehearsals coming out of my ears, for gigs all leaning towards 3 part female harmony groups funnily enough. I am starting to get sore knees which I like to call pop/bop knee. As I am doing so much bopping through songs haha!

The weekend just gone was another J.D Lord band gig at Norwood Live. Liv, Sophie and myself pop bopped our way through over 20 songs, including a little Sweet Inspiration by ourselves. It was a great night and we had some lovely new costumes designed by Juliette. 

I have an Andrews Sisters gig coming up this Friday with Ding Productions which has been a good challenge to learn and also in the next couple of weeks a couple of Carols by Candlelight to sing at and of course Soul Factor's Christmas Concert. Which is selling fast and will be a wonderful afternoon of music! Don't miss it!




As well, Oklahoma rehearsals start!! Yes if you missed this years wonderful "Oklahoma on a Farm" experience we are back in January 2017. For a look at this year check out my blogpost from January. Book your tickets as it truly is a wonderful experience!

Well that's a wrap! Lot''s going on and I feel very blessed!

Have a fabulous week.

Happy Birthday Songs!

So I'm now 31! I can not believe a year has already passed since my 30th and all that was going on at that time. There I was last year thinking "Oh my goodness, I'm in a new age range I've hit 30" and that year has already past. Well, I can say that being in your 30's is not bad actually and if anything I am happy I'm here, yes minus a few things I thought I would have gained in that 30th year but I am happy, healthy and surrounded by those who love me so I am extremely grateful. This years birthday was a lot less flashy than last years (thank goodness because that was a lot of work haha!) but lovely all the same. It began actually on Saturday, my sister Liv had organised a breakfast and surprised me by inviting some of girlfriends to join us. The café we went to was Harvest in Mylor, South Australia. It was really adorable and encourage you to check it out some time. We sat outside in gorgeous weather, under the tress and enjoyed each others company and...

"Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain"

I can't believe I am sitting here already a week after the opening of Emma Knights Productions Oklahoma! on a Farm and we have finished another fabulous season and I've already jumped into rehearsals for the next couple of things. But I wanted to take a moment to again talk about this show and to say how grateful I am to be able to perform like this. This season of Oklahoma was HOT!! in many ways but also "literally" haha!! The temperatures of the weekend were in the high 30's and Saturday was so humid, but the amazing cast, crew and orchestra pushed through it and the performances was fabulous. And thats not just me saying that but the audiences who came were again raving at how good it was and what I find wonderful is they all sat through it, in the heat themselves but did not complain. There is something about being on the farm, if you have never been to Four Oaks Farm in Littlehampton I encourage you to (even better if it's for a show I'm doing...

Turkish and Other Delights! Part Two...

And so the story of the trip continues here Part One can be found here ! So we arrived in Istanbul on Tuesday 21st April 2015 and as I said in the previous post we were struck by how many people there were and how crazy the driving was but luckily we were picked up by our tour company, Travelshop Turkey. We did make it to our hotel, The Green Park Hotel, safely and this hotel seemed quite nice. We did find it weird we didnt know anything about our start time in the morning or anything else from our tour but the guy at the desk did say that they were rather unorganised and not to worry, he'd let us know. Dancers on the boat Our first experience began that night began with a Bosphorus River and Dinner Cruise (to be honest we didn't quite know what to expect), people had said that it was great to cruise on the Bosphorus and see Istanbul from the water. Well we got picked up along with some others we didn't know and headed to our boat. Well this night was an experience!...
