open house success



Scott & I held our "Open House" party last weekend, and it was a great success. Our doors were open from 10am till 10 pm... our first guests arriving at 11am. Friends and family continued to stroll in and out from then all the way till 10pm, where we left with our last group of guests for some dancing in the city. I was so far past exhausted that I thought nothing wrong of stepping out for some drinks and dancing. Mind you - when we eventually got home, I crashed into our bed like never before.

All in all, we had a total of 25 guests for the day, and an endless supply of yummy snacks and drinks. The whole thing was Scotts idea, and Im so happy he suggested it. It was a great opportunitty to see a whole bunch of our close friends and family on one day. It gets pretty hard to find the time sometimes to see all the people you're close you - this was the perfect opportunity to see them all!

Just before we headed back home from the city, I got Scott to take some outfit photos for me. For the life of me why on earth am I wearing a jacket as a dress that barely coveres my backside? I have no idea. I'll put it down to exhaustion. By the way - what do you think of my new boots? A big thanks to Emma for blogging about hers, the min I saw them I went out and bought a pair of my own!

(jacket: eBay, tights: woolies, boots: betts, scarf: forever new)
