Winner!

Time for some bragging again :-)   I entered Mr Price Home's 'Summertime with Family & Friends Competition' where you have to upload an image of your family/friends having fun - or what you're getting up to fo the summer. Something like that.

Here's my pic that got me a R3000 shopping voucher prize.

Presents, YAY!

It was my 30th birthday recently and I had a mad hatter's party. I was too busy to take lots pics so instead I took pics of my gifts afterwards. Once I get all the hat pics in order, I'll post it.

I got quite a bit of jewellery including necklaces, earrings, a bracelet and a ring.

The jewellery I got :-)

I got some chocs and sweets as well. I managed to finish the one box of Lindt already (with some help).
I finished about 2 chocs before I took this pic
Body stuff - yipppeeeeee. I got loads of body wash, body butter, perfume and other body-realted things.  They all smell AWESOME and I've started using quite a few of the products already.

Yummmy
The perfumes I got are Clinique Happy (+ lotion), Cacherel Amor Amor (+ lotion), DKNY travel perfumes and Tommy Hilfiger Loud. Body stuff included olive, coconut and shea body butter, a variety of body wash and banana shampoo. I also got a Body Shop gift pack (x2). There's a Sh'Zen gift pack as well with a loofah thing that really works well. I also got hand cream to pop in my handbag.
 

A jewellery box, jewellery chest and Cashmere soap

High School Musical Pillow (don't ask) and three picture frames
Before you start wondering...I'm not a High school Musical fan. I've never seen the movie or series in my life and I'm not quite sure why anyone would design a pillow dedicated to it. Nevertheless - it's a fun gift.. and I actually use it.

I enjoy scrapbooking and making cards and stuff so the scrapbooking book and kit was a pretty cool gift. I generally always get scrapbook stuff but this is my first book about it. I got two DVDs - My Father the Hero (was my favourite movie when I was thirteen, I think, and When in Rome is a movie I hired about three times so my friend thought it would be better if I had my own copy. I think it's a sweet movie and Josh Duhamel is hot. I like Kristen Bell because I used to watch Veronica Mars. she is awesome. I also got Eclipse - which is the only book in the Twilight saga that I don't have. Yes, I'm a twilight fan. I've read all the books but they weren't all my own copies. Now I finally have the complete set.



I got a Woolies gift voucher from my colleagues - which was really nice of them. I haven't spent all of it yet, which is really surprising.  Some cash also came my way - I'm sad to say that I've blown it all already, hehehehe.

The complete F.R.I.E.N.D.S series....booyah!!
Last but not least, I got a pair of shoes. First time ever! Whoop whoop. They're a pair of blueish leather high heels that I tried on about a month ago... and when I went back to buy it, they were sold out. Now I know why :-)
