Happy 30th Murray
Last week it was Murray's 30th Birthday!!! We headed down to Melbourne to celebrate all weekend long. It was a great weekend, though I'm still feeling a little exhuasted from it all.

A Melbourne girl in Melbourne?
Doesn't really have the same ring to it does it?
A couple of weeks ago Murray poped home at lunchtime to give me some flowers for our "57th month anniversay" (now everyone groan at how pukey that is).
When he came home I was still so delighted by the flowers he gave me, but at the same time surprised by the sudden sacking of Sheeds.
Kind of ironic because Murray was sacked too. Sacked from the job that we moved up to Sydney in the first place! So where does that leave us? Well... we're not really decided yet. He's just going to look for jobs in both citys and see what comes up. If I go overseas next year we'll probably look at going back to Melbourne sometime. But I actually kinda like Sydney. We both do. Its grown on us. I like it enough to make up for not being near my friends and family - which is a lot. I dont know what we're going to do. But it sucks.

Watson's Bay
After we had some bad news (which I'll update you with shortly) we headed out to Watsons Bay for the day. It was just beautiful. A stunning Sydney day.
Murray on the Ferry ride over there. Can you believe it! Murray on Public Transport!
Looking down over the Harbour from Robertson Park.
From the Watson's Bay lookout.
What I think they call "The Gap"... I can see why.
Some crazy rock Lizard.
Us!
Macquarie Lighthouse
Sheltering in the tree from the wind to eat some famous Doyle's Fish & Chips.

If roses grow in Heaven
If roses grow in Heaven Lord
Please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Father's arms
and tell him they're from me.
Tell him I love him and miss him,
and when he turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon his cheek
and hold him for a while.
Because remembering him is easy,
I do it everyday,
But there is an ache within my heart
That will never go away.......
(With thanks to Aussiebelle)
I do laugh a bit though, and wonder if "roses" should be changed to Screwdrivers, or Tap Timers, or Darts, or Cascade Premium Lights!
Westfield Bondi Junction
OMG. I have a new Mecca. Westfield Bondi Junction. 441 stores. Chadstone at around 200 stores eat your heart out. Nuff said.
Happy 21st Jeremy
My "little" brother came up to Sydney to visit for his 21st Birthday!
He and his girlfriend stayed with us one night and in a hotel in the city for the rest of the weekend.
I think that they thoroughly enjoyed themselves, I've never seen him be so talkative!
We also headed down to Norton St for dinner.

Mum visisted! Queen's Birthday long weekend
I know I've been a very bad blogger - so I thought I'd give you all a few updates!
First of all - Mum came to visit! And we had a fabulous time, despite Murray working all long weekend and it being the worst weather I've experienced in Sydney!
On Friday just after she arrived at the airport we went off to see Priscilla Queen of the Desert at Star Casino. It was every bit as funny as the movie and then some. The costumes were fantastic!!!
On Saturday we went to The Rocks Market, which Mum has always wanted to see. We managed to stay dry and check out the Opera House and Circular Quay.
After lunch the weather was just too awful to do anything much at all. So we jumped on the Ferry and took a return trip out to Watsons Bay. It was so wet and cold we didn't get out - not even for Doyles! I have since been back to Watsons Bay though. To give you an idea of what the weather was like though...
We went out for a nice dinner down at Manly on Saturday night - seafood of course! (yukko!)
I can't remember what we did the rest of the weekend.... this is why I need to update my blog more! Oh I know! We went up to the Blue Mountains to visit some friends! Leura was lovely. :)

It fined up on the way home though where we got a good view of the Opera House and city.
