My New Crystals

MrMan and I ordered Marie & Pierre from Swarovski as our wedding cake toppers. After a short amount of worry that they would not arrive on time for the wedding, they finally arrived. I’m so excited to finally have them (although I’ve nowhere safe to display them thanks to Patty the bratty catty, haha)

Here is Swarovski’s description of the pair:

Marie & Pierre – “Home is where the heart is.”

Loving husband of Marie and proud father of Theo and Emily, Pierre is above all an epicurean, and whenever The House of Cats gets a little too frantic, he escaped to his secret garden, both literally and figuratively.

Marie acts as the warm soul of The House of Cats and a loving mother to Theo and Emily. She lends the house to its inimitable joie de vivre and takes great pleasure in taking care of each member. Cozy, yet sophisticated, the surroundings have come to resemble her personality, and bear witness to her love of fine objects and her artistic sensibility.

Amazingly, I won another prize – this time via the staff magazine. I knew it was worth entering all those competitions. I mean, evetually we all win comps, right? And my prize? The Luck Star Necklace:

On a side note, we also dropped by Canberra Connect today so MrMan could change his surrname on his licence. We thought it would be a simple process. Apparently we now have to wait two to three weeks for his new licence to arrive! Here’s hoping the stash of interim paperwork MrMan now has will be accepted by the airlines and he can get on the plane (and needless to say, I wouldn’t be able to get on a plane by myself – curse my phobias!)
