Tiago's cousins wedding

Sunday 5th July was Gabi's cousins wedding Andre Cerutti to Erica Green. Unfortunately we only found out about the wedding the weekend of my birthday and was supposed to be working. But luckily back at work on the Tuesday 23rd June on afternoon and found someone to swap which was a relief. Was disappointed when back at work on the Tuesday as everyone knew was my birthday the day before but no cake. Everyone asked how my day was but for some reason thought would get a cake as when someone else's birthday there got one. But I suppose I shouldn't of expected the same treatment as it was acting NUM Amie who bought the last cake. On Wednesday I found out that I had the current points for my expression of interest visa so hopefully will soon get invite then can apply for my permanent residence. I then started nights on the Wednesday for 4 nights and trust me to cone home with the pager on Thursday but luckily didn't have to take back. Also sometimes when I finish nights can take for every to get home but think since school holidays and broke up early wasn't too bad. Whilst on nights gave me chance in the day to look for a outfit for the wedding and loaded a skirt from ASOS was just hoping would arrive in time as coming from UK. On Friday after work was awake by 13.30 so decided to go to Bondi junction during in afternoon to pick Tiago up from work. Also so I could buy the dyson hand stick as on offer at Myer and Tiago had gift card so was only $125 each. But unfortunately was none left in store but one good thing was that there could order it for us and get it sent to us free, so did that. Luckily night not to bad and on my last one on Saturday night thought might drag as went for break at 1.30. Also on Saturday night Tiago had the stag do for Andre which was in Bondi Junction in an apartment but wasn't a late night. Then on the Sunday after my nights didn't sleep for too long to spoil my day so didn't do much but went did go to gym with Tiago. On the Monday 29th June started my personal training but did no actual training just going through everything. My new personal trainer is Lauren an Irish instructor who seems nice and then I went to gym where I ran 4kms in 22 mins and 41 seconds. The rest of the day I just chilled and actually made some scones as Tiago had a bad day in court his appeal didn't go well. Also luckily the skirt I ordered from ASOS arrived today but not sure what top to wear yet. On Tuesday up early as cleaner coming had said 10ish unfortunately arrived after 10am otherwise could of gone to class at personal trainer gym. So whilst the cleaner was there I went to the gym where I ran 2.5kms in under 15 minutes also went on the bike where I read my kindle at same time. Once home quick change then go to the city to meet Sarah before she goes on her holiday to Europe. We were supposed to go the Cool Yule festival in Darling Harbour but we ended up getting distracted with shopping. As I decided I wanted the black crop top I saw at forever new then got a pink clutch and necklace to go with it. Also Sarah ended up buying a few things things for her holiday as needed more summer things. We then had a nice lunch in the QVB building but only had salad which was good had mango on it. Once back hone was quickly drop my stuff off at home then go to have my last laser treatment at the salon. Also found out that unfortunately Gabi can't get leave so they cants cone snowboarding with us to New Zealand. Then back at work on Wednesday on a early and at long last Amie is sorting my CNS but have to do another appraisal. Got next roster and I thought I had booked a weekend off but now am working but at least only the saturday. Once finished work got my bracelet from Tiago and was going to go to class which meant waiting 2 hours so went to gym instead. Then on Thursday Watson a early and started the new Emeds which was actually not as bad as I expected. Also when I finished had another parcel to collect and this time was the dyson hoover but couldn't use as needed charging, shame.. But I got to use the dyson on Friday morning before work and was very impressed so much easier to use. I then met my personal trainer again who went through nutrition and supposedly eating too many carbohydrates. So now have to keep a food diary for a few days and try to eat more protein and less carbohdrates. Luckily I managed to swap my Saturday shift to a morning instead of a late so at least could do something after work. Unfortunately work very busy and my patient fell again 2nd time in a week so had to special for a few hours. At least when I finished work I could do something with Tiago so we went to the gym together then had some wine at night. Then on Sunday 5th July was Andre and Erica's wedding at Milk Beach in Vaucluse. But only found out in the morning that we could get a lift from Gabi and Diego so had breakfast first then time to get ready. Luckily was ready in time for when there arrived to pick and I even had chance to paint my finger nails even if I did manage to smudge one on each finger. Even though I had ordered shoes with my skirt I ended up wearing my shoes of prey grey ones as Tiago preferred them with outfit. Got picked up at 11.45 and was only about a 30 minute drive away so definitely there in plentry of time as had to be there for 12.30. Realised though on the way that I should of taken some flat shoes with me as it abit of a pain to get to in heels as lots of ups and downs. Luckily Tiago got out of the car with me instead of helping Diego to park so he could help me down the hills. Milk Beach is a small isolated beach surrounded by the heritage listed Strickland House. It offers a breathtaking view of Sydney and the main landscapes, Milk Beach is one of Sydney's Eastern suburbs well kept secrets. It was definitely a beautiful setting to have a wedding and luckily the sun was shining for them, couldn't off asked for a better day. To get to the actual venue was abit of a pain as had to go down a grass hill over sand then up some steps so I actually had to take shoes off to go over sand. The wedding was supposed to start at 1pm and you normally expect the bride to be late but both of them didn't arrive til nearly 1.30. Which I suppose was quite good as at least it gave everyone plenty of opportunity to take pictures. But we also realised that Andre's immediate family were also late as their had been taking pictures at home before the wedding. The bride looked beautiful in a simple lace dress to below the knee with a flower headdress with matching bouquet. Before the ceremony his brother in law played the guitar and the actually was only short and after played Brazilian instruments. After the ceremony we had to have our pictures taken with the bride and groom as wanted some family pictures. It was then to go the reception which was in Bondi and unfortunately the address was wrong so got out at wrong place first. The reception was at ravesi's which is situated in the heart of Bondi beach with breathtaking coastal views. Me and Gabi got out at the traffic lights whilst the boys went to find a car parking spot as is a nightmare to park in Bondi. Once at the reception was already a few there and went to the bar were we got free drink so I just got a wine. Their were also fetching food round bit was only small bite sized I had the fish n chips would of got one for Tiago but didn't know how long he would be. As their seemed to take a while to get parked probably didn't get there til nearly 3ish and both of them were starving. Also the food coming out less often and when it came everyone starving so wanting it, as probably not had lunch. Luckily there got a drink just in time as when Gabi went up late now had to pay for drinks. Just after 4 both Tiego and Diego were starving so went outside to get something else to eat. There ended up going to Harry's wheels and got a hot dog but I got nothing as trying to be good eating less carbohydrates. When got back to reception was abit of dancing and then it was time for the bouquet to be thrown were both the boys and girls got to it. First it was the girls and was supposed to be all the single girls but there made me go up aswell but didn't catch it. Was quite funny the girl who caught definitely want to catch it as made a jump for it in front of everyone else. It was the the boys turns and Tiago had to group aswell but this time the boys had to have their eyes closed and Tiago didn't catch it. By the end we were getting a little bored so we went downstairs for abit for a change of scenery. Didn't end up leaving til after 6 then had to wait at her aunties house for abit whilst wait for them. Got home about 7ish and then had something to eat since not eaten much just had some scrambled egg and turkey ham. Was a lovely wedding beautiful setting for the ceremony and couldn't of asked for better weather just shame about the lack of food and drink at reception.
