New Appreciation...

...for the kitchen sink!

Yes, you read that right, I have a new found appreciation for the kitchen sink. I also FINALLY understand the meaning behind "they packed everything; including the kitchen sink" I'm never leaving it behind again - EVER!

Hubby and I have been diligently working on our kitchen main floor renovation for the past 3 weeks...and well, we're exhausted, and also can't wait for the end.  We're so close we can both see it.  When I say close, I mean close to something functional - something that has a kitchen sink ;)  

Which brings up my dilemma - what kind of sink do I we really want!? I'm pretty sure we will go with a single one, I really like the look of it but there are so many shapes and sizes!  What to do, what to do; I've shown some of my favourites below.  



Guess I better decide soon, we're going to pick out our counter top tomorrow! 

Home stretch!


Our Honeymoon


Newly Acquired Hubby and I patiently eagerly waited for take-off for over 6 months before we went on our honeymoon!  But we made it - 3 connections and a LOT of airport lounge hanging out time later - we landed in one of the most breathtaking places I've ever seen - Bora Bora! 

Our pictures barely capture what we saw.  Rather than tell you I thought I’d reminisce and share my favourites. 

First glimpse of paradise - view of Moorea from our resort in Tahiti

the water was crystal clear - I liked the colour of this guy

Sunset in Tahiti

of all the airports I've been in - none compare to this

waited 6+ months for this picture

*sigh* 

2pm feeding everyday for these guys; scared us on day 1 when they just appeared


rain on one side, sun on the other

tranquility

shows just how far away from home we really were

final glimpse of our resort *tear*

I did ask if I could stay...I was forced on the plane against my will...swear!

We're always asked the same questions to which the answer is always the same.
  • Was it worth the wait? Absolutely
  • Would we go back? Absolutely (once we save our pennies again)
  • Should 'I/we' add to our bucket list? ABSOLUTELY move it to the very top!

Hope you enjoyed the pictures, it really was the trip of a life time and the perfect "delayed honeymoon"!
