New Toy :)
Check out our new toy! :) Well Dan's the driver, I get to be the passenger :D It's a Harley Davidson Low Rider (2007 or 08 I think?). (the pipes are different, Dan got slip-ons put on, so they're shorter and louder:) Super comfy for both of us! Longer road trips here we come! :) We've already got one planned this summer down the Great Ocean Road. It will be gorgeous and so much fun! Thanks' to my good ol' Dad I love Harley's and love being on the back of one/going for road trips, so luckily Dan's converted! :D He's like a kid in a candy store with all the different things you can do to it. He said 'it's like men's lego' lol! Pick it up this Friday and the dealership we bought it from arranges group rides all the time, so we'll be included in those if we want to go. Like I said, should be good fun. Exciting!
Off to Mount Buller next weekend, it's about a 3-4 hour drive from here. I'm in snow/ski withdrawal, so time to hit up the hill for half the day. Really looking forward to it! It will be weird skiing a mount I've never been on though, I'm so used to skiing the same mount. Kicking myself for not bringing my skiis/boots back with me from Canada, oh well, will have to rent this year.
We racked the front garden last weekend. Good fun, NOT. We've got about 10 trees along the front driveway that drop their needles constantly (and the birds love to kick it up and make a mess of it)! We usually just sweep them off the driveway into the garden, but unfortunately it was getting a bit full, so we had to empty it out. :( 16 rubbish bags and 4 bin fulls later! I suppose it hasn't been done since before we moved in and we've been here for over a year now. Hopefully get away with it for another year :P
I also failed making cupcakes last weekend. Had a go at with with the sister in-law Narelle, she's good at baking, but the recipe I had didn't really work out. Over-cooked the base (not burnt, just hard) and the icing was too runny. LOL! Apparently I have a few more years to perfect it then I have to make 40 of them for someone's 40th birthday :P
Got Dan's wedding band last week :D Making me so much more excited for the big day next year! I will of course get mine soon enough as well, just have to wait for a few more pay cheques, but it matches my engagement ring :) Off to look at some bridesmaid dresses soon, hopefully pick those out soon enough too. Other then that, we can't really do too much else until next year, so sit back and relax I suppose.
Well, time to put the feet up after a hard days work. Love to you all xx
