A Very Happy Birthday♥

Hello Hello from a newly 22 year old! - after last years mayhem surrounding my Beautiful Harry Potter 21st & Wonderful trip to the USA - turning 22 was far more low key, which was lovely :)
Here are a few snippets from my day!




The Super Cute Chalk drawing on the driveway mum did in the middle of the night!





My Birthday dinner - set up by the lovely little sister.








The Most Amazing Map from The Most Amazing Shop from Sister & Mumma Bear - Little Paper Lane - is my favourite place in my home town, a beautiful shop filled with beautiful people! ++ They have just opened their online store! Aaaamazing! The Gift below is from the lovely jayde (Who owns the store) && Her wonderful mum Karyn who runs Sweet n' Pretty <3



Hung up in pride of place in my room :) I adore it! Especially because it's a bit unique in the fact that Australia is in the middle rather than to the left - you can really appriciate how big the pacific ocean is & How in the middle of nowhere we really are!





Dad & I at the Hard Rock Cafe Sydney.

As you can see the sheer amount of WONDERFUL mail I have recieved the last 2 weeks + The horrible illnesses + The busy work schedule have meant that my replies have fallen to the wayside a bit - however over the next couple of weeks i endevour to remedy this & send out some AMAZING replies to all you beautiful people!
