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.

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.

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 cafĂ© 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...

Be the Hero of your story....

Well after around 4 months of rehearsal the time has come for us to open "Big Fish" the Musical. Tonight is the Preview before tomorrow Opening Night and I am so excited to share it with audiences and bring the SA Premiere to Adelaide! You may have gathered from other posts that I LOVE this musical and the role that I am playing. Of all the lead roles I have played, this one, Sandra Bloom, is a special one. But I think that has a lot to do with the cast, production team and all those involved with putting this show on. It has been such a wonderful rehearsal period creating something beautiful and for that I feel very blessed. I get to sing some beautiful songs, be a mother and grandmother and have red hair! Plus you don't want to miss my blue Sparkly dress!! If you are trying to decide whether to come to it as you don't know the story or music I encourage you to take a leap and come along. This music had me from the first listen and the story is so full of heart ...

"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...
