New Year! What's coming.....

Happy New Year!! Wow can you believe that we are in 2016!
Last year really flew by and December was a crazy month. How are you feeling after the end of the year? are you ready to start a new one?

December was a great month, I was flat out with gigs, rehearsals, work and Mary Kay plus of course Christmas events with friends and family but it was a great month. I do love singing and performing and it is such a pleasure to share Christmas songs with people, to have then join in and leave with such joy. Soul Factor's concert was fabulous! So much fun to perform and a full house to share it with.
Our next gig was at the Hallett Cove Carols, which was freezing! And then the Adelaide Carols by Candlelight where some of us where backing Samantha Jade again and the whole choir was in the onstage choir. This turned into an exciting event, because although Samantha Jade got through her first number she actually had tonsillitis and got sicker after so about 20 mins before she was to go back on, I was called off stage and told they wanted me to sing Oh Holy Night in her place. So they found me a dress, pinned me in, gave me a mic and pushed me out there! I was sort of in that daze where you wonder whether this is actually happening haha!! But it all seemed to go well and I got a great cheer (mostly by my Soul Factor peeps on stage I reckon ;) ) anyway I felt blessed to be able to do it. I then also had to sing the Hallelujah Chorus out the front at the end. So it was a good night :)



How was your Christmas? I had a lovely day and enjoyed some family time as well a little break before heading back into rehearsals for Oklahoma. This musical that we are doing on a farm starts this Thursday and I am really looking forward to it!! It such a great concept and its exciting to be doing something that has not been done before. If you love live theatre, horses, farms, baked goods and the country then this is for you! Such an amazing cast and orchestra and unique setting is not to be missed. There are only four shows so grab your tix! https://www.dramatix.com.au/events/1522
 
 

So what do you want to accomplish this year? Have you set goals? or are you more of a go with the flow person?

I am excited for the thing that are happening so far this year. Singing gigs, weddings, makeup and of course I finish up DIQ with Mary Kay this month and.........BOTH my sisters are having babies so I will be an auntie again. So there is so much to look forward to and to praise God for everyday. I usually start each year with a bible verse that the sticks with me through out the year. Interestingly this year its the same verse as last year. It is a promise that I am reminded of everyday and I thank God that it is true.



And I also felt this verse was for this year



I hope that these say something to you as well! Have a wonderful 2016 and I look forward to sharing with you all through it!

A Dream is a wish your heart makes....

A dream is a wish you heart makes... Do you have a dream? something that you want your life to be? or somewhere you want to go? Are you reaching for it? I have had a dream to be a Mary Kay Director since I joined the company 10 years ago and this month I took a huge step to achieving this. On October 1st I entered into DIQ or Director in Qualification, I now have 4 months to become a Director. I am very excited about this, the timing seemed right and when I do it I will be able to do just Mary Kay and Singing which will be perfect! It is rather scary though because there is a lot of work to be done in those four months, I have to build my team and reach certain production goals and sometimes it seems crazy, but that's the idea of moving up isn't it? taking a leap of faith? So why Directorship you ask? I understand leadership is not for everyone but I have always been drawn to it. I do have a passion for helping women feel good about themselves and I believe that we are...

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!...

2018 Celebration!!

2018 has really been an amazing year.  When I look back on what I've actually done this year it is actually quite crazy but I've enjoyed every minute of it.  There have been times of difficulty and real stress when things didn't go to plan but God has blessed me so abundantly and really allowed me to use my gifts to share with people and to create a life that is really full of joy. So at the beginning of this year, I actually said I was gonna have a quieter year and that turned out to not be true in the slightest. But it has been amazing!  So this year, I have done Oklahoma on a Farm twice, played Princess Fiona in an SA Premiere of Shrek (plus learned to tap dance), done a Bee Gee's Tribute with my sisters, climbed aboard a Pirate Ship many times, been a Siamese Twin in SideShow the Musical, been an Ice & Fire Queen, learnt and performed many Elvis songs, sang on a Cruise Ship,  sang on the radio 4 times, perfomed in concerts, gigs, dinne...
