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.

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

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

Where has all the time gone to?

Oh my goodness, it is March and this is the first blog post I am writing this YEAR!! I am sorry for the lack of blog posts. This year has started off with a bang and kept going and now is flying past! So let's catch up. 2019 began actually slowly for me, for the past few years I have had Oklahoma in the first week of January but this year we didn't have it so it was nice to have some holidays as last year was crazy! But the new year started with an Elvis Gig on the 6th, great to catch up and sing with the band again and then I headed off to Kuala Lumpur for Mary Kay Leadership Conference.  I had a ball there, meeting and learning from other Directors in Malaysia, Phillipines and Singapore but also getting to know the Aussie and NZ Directors better. Plus I had to sing in the Talent Night with the rest of the Directors from Aus/NZ Dancing behind and WE WON!! Hilarious but a fab time.  So then it was back and straight into rehearsals for Soul Factor's Fringe show
