'Tis the Season to be Jordy... and Jolly!! Already!!

Well well well, 

As you know...our family is one of tradition; and every 1st of December, we put up our most beautiful Christmas tree, whilst singing like crazy to Patsy Bisko and Mariah Carey. It is so much fun and brings so much joy into our home...and makes everyone wish for that Hippopotamus for Christmas which we never ever get?? :(

The problem in this traditional picture is...tomorrow is the 1st of December...and our Christmas tree is already up!!! Tradition was broken...but for a legitimate reason of course!

Little J, left us on Friday, to travel the streets of Pariiii (Paris), eat nutella with baguette and speak the language of love. ;) 

I don't know who i'm more jealous of....you my Nomi, with your Festivities in New York...or you dear Jordy, with your Festivities in Paris. 

It's time like these when i feel like Beth off "Little Women"...when all of her sisters are travelling, getting married, or having babies and accomplishing wonderful goals, and she stays at home with her Marrmee and Papa. I do love being at home, it is my favourite place...and the Mornington Peninsula is my favourite place in the world. I miss my sisters being with me though. 

Soon i'll be the one leaving you all behind though! then I'll have some exciting things to write about for you :)

Not that the Christmas Tree isn't exciting!!

Now i still hold true to my belief that our Christmas tree is the most beautiful of all....although the beading proved to be a challenge again without you my dear Nomi. Stephy wanted to weave, i wanted to drape...it just became confusing...BUT WE GOT THERE! haha

As Stevie Wonder would sing..."Isn't She Lovely!?"

Now there is more photos and a special movie just for Nomi viewing ;) to come...but i don't have access to them...because theyre on Sari and Dad's phone ...I'll try to figure out how to upload them  :)

Also...we have a new addition in our home...

Meet Jesso...the 2nd!! He's a life-size birthday card. Pretty impressive, yes i know. but still beatable!! Just you wait haha. 

He is very versatile...we can sit and watch TV with the family, he can sit at the dinner table, you can take him for walks...play basketball with him?? and even better...you can take him for a swim! because yes...hes even waterproof. haha 

He is so handy when you want to scare someone else...although i will admit even i get scared and creeped out sometimes when someone moves him into a strange place or i forget hes there haha

So there he is...the not one and only Jesso.

(get it? get it?? haha )

I havent spoken to you in a long time and I'm missing you as always.

Keep safe and always remember how loved you are!!

The Great Storm...and the Great Finish!

Hey Hey little Lady ;)


Well, when i say great storm, I don't mean it metaphorically. We were literally hit by a GREAT storm. We all thought it was going to be a Wizard of Oz storm, and the house was going to be lifted up and we would fly off to a wonderful land. The rain was so heavy, it sneakied on under the door and began to flood the house, and within any minute we could have been swimming around like mermaids! ...Have a look!!

Ishka's Bowl is floating!!

When i say the Great Finish, i'm talking about my Great Finish!! Yesterday I had my last exam...It was a horrible oral presentation in front of my lecturers and another student. 
But its over now! and I'm free to do what i want for 3 months! :D
And now is the time to tell you, Dylan, a friend and I have spontaneously decided to go to Cambodia, Vietnam and Borneo for a month in February!!  We got super cheap flights, and I am so excited to experience another country with different food, weather, sights and people. :)
We also celebrated the end of my second year uni, with an 'oh so exciting' game of spoons...a very violent game involving grabbing spoons off a table...if you miss out on grabbing a spoon you get a letter...which eventually spells an offending word. FAT. i was the FAT :( haha 
Jesso and I also watched an oh so long and extended version, but so much more exciting version of Lord of the Rings 2!


I miss you Nomi, and hearing from you makes me so happy. I can't wait for your work trip here next year so i can finally see you! But i hope even more you'll be able to visit before then. 


I went to the YSA ball in...oh so far away Heidleberg last week! Normally during an event like this, we would have you rallying up with bobbypins, hair irons, hair spray and makeup trying your bestest to turn a weed into a rose. Unfortunately i was the only one home, and thankgoodness; my friend came over and helped me get ready. 

"All Glammed up" This is for your eyes only my lovely sister ;)

The dance was fun and full of glitzy and glammy people...and even though I'm much to white to be a dancer...i managed to dance till my feet were sore. (don't worry i didnt take my shoes off!!) haha

I miss you and i love you, and i cant wait for you next blog post!!!! 

:D

My Huckleberry Friend ♥

I'm sitting here in bed, and its 12.03 am. I can't sleep, my mind is running 1 million miles per hour. 

Huckleberry Friend:

" There are your good friends: people who love you. And then there are your huckleberry friends: people who've known you for years and have stuck by you and love you no matter what. "

Although oceans separate us, the stars glow when the sun shines and i can't cuddle you as i wish i could, you are and always will be my huckleberry friend and precious sister.


Remember when we used to laugh at the most ridiculous things, or dance like crazy people when you bought a new cd, or talk about nothing and everything together, or sing till our hearts content, or eat till our hearts content. remember watching multiple chick-flicks together...remember trying persistently to teach me how to do my hair...remember going on picnics to coolart, or out for breakfast or chippies in flinders. Remember when we all used to be young and have no worries in the world, driving to queensland singing to the spice girls. ...I miss those times.


Love you
xx
