Hopman Cup

​

We finally got to see a live Tennis game and a Hopman Cup on at it too. Seeing that were lucky to have the Hopman cup right at our front door - E and I have always wanted to go see the game in person. This year we made it happen. We got to see the Czech republic vs USA. We got to see 3 games in total. First the males then females then the doubles! 

It was quite interesting to watch and learn the game. E must have been so annoyed at me asking a question ever so often for him to explain what happens, how the point system works and why this and why that! Being one of the matches before the semi finals and finals the arena wasn't as full but we both wondered how it would have been to see the game with a full crowd to build the atmosphere. 

Saying this we had a very annoying person in front of us making a scene because we was moved back (so we're we). We got contacted a day or 2 before the game advising us they had to move us back because the tickets we purchased was in the players and family box. What else could you say but ok, this particular person made such a fuss because he and his mother payed for tickets to be right on the court. All thru the first half of the game he was fussing so much that everyone around him could not pay attention to the game itself but to him going on and wanting to talk to the CEO because he can see seats open. 

E and I were kind of annoyed that due to his ill behaviour he ended up being awarded for being a dick. Yet everyone around us and ourself who didn't say anything about being loved had to stay were we were located too (which was in my opinion better seats) but yet we thought due to his behaviour he shouldn't have been given what he wanted. Rude behaviour should be rewarded. We just hope karma bites him in the ass at some point. 

Needless to say we had a much better time without him in front of us! 

I never realised how long the games go for. The first game started at 5:30pm and the doubles ended around 11:45pm - lucky we can just walk home. 

Both E and I left saying we would like to see a finals game one day.

New Years

​

Happy new year!! We hope you had a wonderful night and stayed up till the clock strikes 00:00. This is the first time since E and I are married that we stayed up! E might have had a nap to be able to do so! This year Anthony being the youngest is the one who couldn't keep his eyes open! 

Also E made sure we remembered what a fart smelt like in the yer 2016!!!

This year we wish you all the happiness and joy for this coming year!! For E and I this year we are hoping to see more of the world or really make big plans to see so much more then we could ever have hoped! 

Happy New Year to everyone!

2015 Family Photo

It's the gift giving season where your surrounded by family. Each yeah I appreciate the opportunity of having the family together, as we get older life gets busies and makes it difficult to get together with  each other. 

Christmas time is a perfect excuse to catch up! I wish we have started this earlier - but this is our family group picture this year! Let's see how the family grow and see where christmas take us over the coming years.

 

Boxing Day Sales

No nothing is wrong with your eyes, the photo is burry and crazy. A perfect example of how Boxing Day sales are here in Australia. CRAZY!!

You always hear about the boxing day sales and bargains people pick up, this year was the first time E and I actually got to participate (seeing we always work previous years). Its really as crazy as people say it is. We are just lucky we actually live in the city because I wouldn't have wanted to take the train nor drive to the city for sales. 

We both decided how much we would spend and off we went. Surprisingly we kept to budget and got a few bits and bobs. Saying this we only later thought about it but we should have bought a new vacuum cleaner seeing our died just before Christmas. Our priorities are with clothes. 

Glad we got experience the crazy, don't know if I would do it again.

We surprised mum with the gift she asked for after telling her we could not afford it. 

Her reaction started with surprise, tears and then hysterical laughter.

No Filter Show

Yes, can you believe it!! I got to see them live!! Like I did with Miranda Sings, I dragged E along! Seeing they are more comedy performers I thought E might actually enjoy the show (which he did).

In the start I felt like the crowd was somewhat tiered from the crazy hot day - as we all had trouble cooling down! It's somewhat strange to see them live when you watch someone on 'tv' and now in person! I dragged E with me but he hasn't ever seen a video of them or even individually.

Although there was a bumpy start I enjoyed seeing them live!! Still somewhat unreal but completely worth it.
