The Booths come to town!

We had a fantastic week showing Heidi and Danny around. Here are some cool pics Heidi took...

Ry's Birthday

Ry turned 27 on tuesday, I think he had a great time! We stayed up til midnight the night before so he could open his presents (you'd think he was 12) it was fun though, i also made him a birthday cake. A birthday treat for Ry was the cinema and mexican food, i have to agree thats my idea of a good night too. As usual we had fun, its also the year anniversary of him moving to London. Its gone so quickly i have no idea where the time went. We've travelled, laughed, cried, both moved away from our family and friends, challenged our ideas, thoughts, everyday we seem to challenge what we think. Its been hard but living with Ry its always fun. Im always laughing with him!

As part of my present we are going to Edniburgh for a weekend in September. It should be beautfiul that time of year :)

On my mind

Recently I've had a lot on my mind, one minute I'm fine and can feel quite positive about work and stuff, but other times I just want to do anything but get up and go there. Its such an intense time right now, having moved in, moving away from my friends and family its hard to remember who you are, I just want to focus on who im going to be. My life has changed and I know I can only rely on myself to get through all of this.

Rockferry

Im completely obsessed with Duffys song "Warwick Avenue". Its such a sad sad song but i just love it. Yesterday I kept coming out with the only lines I know - "you think you're loving but you dont love me" I think im doing everyones head in but i cant help singing it all the time.

Check it out on my playlist. :)

Spain!

Last weekend I was lucky enough to go to Spain with my lovely sisters and Mum to celebrate Joeys last few days as a free woman before her wedding. The weather was incredible and we had a great time chilling out on the beach, drinking sangria (them not me!) and reading our books. It was so relaxing, I had a lovely time.

Banana and Pecan muffins!

I have made some really delicious muffins tonight. They taste similar to Banana bread but the pecans give it a more indulgent edge. With a glass of milk they made the perfect after dinner treat!

Why I love Ry

Need I say more....

The Hen Night

We had an amazing weekend of Hen do activities, unfortunately I ended up losing the clay pigeon shooting winning a wooden spoon! Oh well, Joey, Jen, Catz and Mum all came joint second so did actually put me to shame. We then had a great BBQ and drinkies at joeys while she got ready and had her hair done in an awesome curly up do. It looked fab and she looked so different. We then got in our tacky white limos up to london to a really posh place called Floridita which played funky salsa music, we sipped mai tais and cosmopolitons, it was all very Sex and the City!

Ugly Jacqui

Today I had an eye test for the first time in a few years, I have been having problems seeing far away so I knew something was up! Unfortunately I was told im short sighted. :( But on the bright side I treated myself to some cool funky Prada glasses they are a bit ugly betty esque. I hope they suit me, I pick them up on Monday. Fingers crossed I can see the screen at the cinema on Sunday im going to see SATC with my bestest friend Becky! Finally, should be so much fun I cannot wait.

Ah! He is so sweet

I love this shot in Rome, its really quite cheesy but Ry set it up on the tripod and everything! Last night Ry treated me to dinner and i also found a sweet little note and some new earrings under my pillow! Ah a girls dream. Presents always help :) Thanks Ry, Love Ya !

Home Sweet Home

I feel like we are always away, so its really nice to be at home for a change (even though it is raining on bank holiday monday!) :)

Dinner in the dark!!!

The other week I went out with some girlfriends to Dans le noir. It’s a restaurant where you eat in complete darkness, the waiters are blind and you don’t know what you are going to eat! Oh and you eat with your hands. Sounds crazy! It was great, im not giving anything away though as we are going again soon with Heidi and Danny and I don’t want to spoil it!

When in Rome..

We had such a fantastic trip to Rome, it was a much more interesting place than Venice. We ate ice creams at every opportunity and pizza of course. I loved all the history, and it was even better when we took guided tours around the colloseum and the vatican. The weather was amazing the whole time ( apart from one rainy afternoon) We stayed in the weirdest room one time though with its own shower in the actual room not the bathroom, i have some photos but they show rys butt so may not put them up here! Im looking forward to getting the computer set up so i can update this properly! xxx

An oldie but a goodie

Right now i'm reading, Men are from Mars Women are from Venus. Ive obviously heard of this book already - who hasnt! As Ry and I are moving in i thought it might be a good one to read! Im half way through and its really good,thing is Ry isnt the sterotypical man, although i understand half of what they are saying he doesn't seem to fit the type they are describing. Which is great news for me, it is pretty funny in places, where it describes what women say and what they actually mean - even funnier how men respond by not even listening!

I definitely am glad to be from Venus!

27 Dresses?

Tomorrow we are spending the day shopping in London to look for wedding dresses. It should be really fun and exaushting I bet. Id love to try one on but don’t want to cause myself any bad luck! At the moment im feeling a bit like Katherine Heigl in 27 dresses!

Fingers crossed we manage to find the one of her dreams!
