Alex and Gina's Wedding
Over the weekend, we celebrated my cousin Alex's long overdue wedding celebration at the Concorde Hotel. The food was delicious, and even though many of my Aunt's, Uncles and cousins couldn't make it, it was still a big affair with most of the guests being called from Gina's side, though you can't complain since they live in Melbourne, most of their friends would be from Melbourne.
Alex looks comfortable and classic in his black suit and Gina looked absolutely stunning in her wedding gown. Alex is so blessed to have found such an amazing woman as Gina. Even though I've barely had a proper conversation with her, I can tell that she's a great wife, mother, daughter and friend. She exubers kindness and gentleness most of all and always plays a great host making sure that everyone is taken care of.
Their daughter Abigail is the sweeeeeetest baby. She's so cute with the cutest button nose and super long lashes. I haven't had a chance to hold her though, but hopefully I'll get the chance to see her before I fly off.
There were also kids galore at the wedding and they were all so cute and adorable - makes me wanna have a baby too!!! Everytime I see them I wanna pinch their cute little button noses!!! No wonder God makes babies cute, otherwise no one would want to have babies in the first place if they were ugly! I never used to like babies actually... I was so scared to pick them up just in case I broke their arms or something, and I didn't like them slobering their saliva all over me! Yucks! I also constantly womdered whether their nappy was filled with pee and poo... which made me wary of carrying babies too - but now all is well! I'm rough and tumble with babies! Bring em on! I love kids! =)

Hyperactive Sean and his cousin sister.
For the wedding I got my hair done at Monsoon ID in Bukit Tinggi by Dash. I tell you, good hair dressers are really hard to come by. I've been to so many hair dressers and I've only ever been satisfied by one hair dresser in Freja West Perth. His name is Tyron, but then I think the shop has closed down since... and it was super expensive at AU$70 for a cut and wash. But my new found hair dresser is Dash! I've got my hair done by him twice, once for Emily's wedding and this time for Alex's wedding... and I've been so happy with both outcomes. I really like my kaboom hair because it matches my kaboom face. If only...I could have such kaboom-ness in my hair everyday. I wish I could take Dash home with me!!! I told him I wanted my hair like Eva Longoria and I think he did a pretty darn good job!
To Alex and Gina, congratulations on your wedding day and also to your beautiful baby girl! Wishing you both good health, abundant wealth and all the happiness in the world because you deserve it! (And also some more brothers and sisters for Abigail!)
