I had a lovely day yesterday! Woke up early feeling excited as we were heading off to do our Christmas shopping this morning!
We got up and had a shot of tonic. Then my boyfriend started to cook up some eggs, tomato, mushies and spinach. I then made him and myself a shake to have and then I had my supplements.
Then we headed off to the shops! I might be a little weird in this aspect but I actually LOVE Christmas shopping. I really enjoy finding a present for someone that I think that they will really like, so I often take quite a bit of time beforehand, writing a bit of a list.
I packed a little snack to take with me so I ate that while we were walking round, as well as a little energy boost shot for me to drink.
We were very efficient and knew what we wanted so we bought most of our presents and then separated up so we could get each other's present. I'm reaaaally happy with my presents this year!
My boyfriend picked me up and then we headed off to Bunnings to finish off his shopping. He was a bit overwhelmed when we got there so I suggested he grab a sausie sambo (cause it was lunchtime) to give him a bit of energy plus I know he's a sucker for a sausie sizzle and I knew it'd make this experience much better for us both if he had one haha! It was quite fun trolling around the huge aisles - we ran into a few people and he finished his shopping off.
Then we went home and I made up a shake and then got stuck into wrapping some of my Christmas presents! I bought some really colourful paper and some lime green tape which went with the paper and got to work like a little elf.
My boyfriend watched the cricket while the little elf wrapped up gifts.
At about 3:30 we headed off to his rugby clubs Christmas party down near the beautiful lake here. It was SO beautiful down there and many were out and about enjoying the lovely weather; there were lots of boats, windsurfers and sailing boats - a flurry of activity and colour!
The club had a tent and BBQ set up lakeside and there was a big crowd gathered. As we only moved here in July, we are still just getting to know people but everyone's very friendly which makes it easier.
My boyfriend is getting to know all the guys but I don't really know any of the girlfriends/wives because my boyfriend joined towards the end of the season this year. But, I made friends with a lovely girl who moved here about the same time that we did so is still a newbie too. She was lovely and I just spent the few hours we were there watching the guys play cricket and swim whilst having a great chat to her. It was SUCH a lovely arvo.
Then we headed off home and had a quick dinner (vege, rice, hummus) and then went to the movies to see the second "Hunger Games" movie. It's amazing!! I loved the first one and have actually read the books too!
We had a GREAT but busy Saturday - soo much fun!!
Hope you are enjoying your weekend too!
