Last week I mentioned that I spent the weekend on the Gold Coast for my Dad's wedding, and showed a couple of photos of Max and Emmy being adorable. And now I'm excited to say that I have something ever cuter to share... a video of them walking down the aisle holding hands :)
Probably completely boring if you're not family and I thought about not sharing it, but it really is so gorgeous!!
Feel free to skip to 2minutes 15seconds to see the real stars of the show (sorry Dad and Cathy!).
I'm so excited to see the professional photos and video now :)

ps the baby screaming in the background is Lincoln, he must have been feeling left out
pps I've gone from having one gorgeous and thin sister to having three of them, too bad they're all too nice to hate ;)

Country Wedding Inspiration
Celebrating my fourth wedding anniversary the other week has got me thinking about weddings more than ever. I absolutely love everything about them and if I was a more organised person I would definitely look into being a wedding/event planner. Who knows, maybe I will evolve into a more organised person and start a career as a planner one day. In the meantime I'll make do with pinning gorgeous images and dreaming about planning weddings.
Although my best friend's wedding is over I still keep adding images to the pinboard (aptly named 'my best friend's wedding' - a name that I blatantly stole off the lovely Laura).
This week I'm dreaming about an idyllic country wedding and I thought I would share some of my favourite images. (All images can be found here, or you can click the link under each image to go directly to the source.)
These invitations are elegant and sweet, setting the scene for a gorgeous, simple country wedding.
The dress would (of course) be vintage lace. I absolutely adore this dress and could never pull it off in real life, but it's absolutely perfect for my imaginary wedding (or someone else's).
I love loose unstructured bouquets filled with soft pinks, creams and pale greenery.
The ceremony would be outdoors amongst the trees and the recpetion in a gorgeous big barn. It would be strung with hundreds of fairy lights and be decorated with lots of tea light candles.
These favours are just perfect for a country wedding and would help bring a touch of nature into the reception.
What do you think? Do you love country weddings as much as I do? Did you have a country wedding? I would love to see photos if you did!

Four Years
Today, my wonderful husband Sean and I are celebrating four years of marriage.
I've found myself reflecting on these years through-out the day and each time I find myself with a big cheesy smile on my face.
It hasn't been all smooth sailing. But what's got us through those rough times is a genuine love for each other and a willingness to make things work. Besides, the good stuff far outweighs anything that could possibly be thrown our way.
Sean was at work so I spent the day with Max and it was an amazing reminder that our marriage is so much more than the two of us. The greatest things that will ever come from it are Max and the baby we have on the way (and any future babies we have!).
Looking back at our wedding day it almost seems insignificant compared to getting to spend the rest of my life with Sean and our family, but it still remains one of my favourite days of all time. It was before the days of pinterest and although I would LOVE to throw another wedding, I'm still really happy with our wedding day. It wasn't perfect, but it was perfect for Sean and I.
Tonight we had a home-cooked (by me no less!) dinner with family and tomorrow night Sean is taking me out for dinner and a movie. He won't tell me where we're going or what we're seeing, but he guarantees me I'll love it!

Three Wonderful Years
Today Sean and I are celebrating our third wedding anniversary. Three years, all at once it has gone so fast, yet also feels like forever (in a good way!).
This last year has probably been the toughest for us so far with, job changes for Sean, health issues for me, fertility dramas, as well as feeling the mortgage pinch that goes along with these types of things. It has definitely proven to us that we made the perfect choice in marrying each other. Everything that has been thrown at us has just shown us how much we truly love each other.
This last year has been filled with plenty of positives as well. We have had the wonderful blessing of seeing our family dynamic evolve as Max grows up. Watching Sean be an amazing Dad to Max, has shown me another side of the man I love. Sean is everything I thought he would be as a Father and so much more.
We have also had lots of time with our respective families, something I am truly grateful for. My family love Sean as if he were their own, and Sean's family show me so much love and support too. We couldn't ask for a better extended family!
We celebrated our anniversary on Sunday night, as we knew today (Tuesday) was going to be a busy day for both of us. The three of us went out to a local restaurant for dinner and a had gorgeous family dinner. Most of the night revolved around Max, which sums up year three of our marriage perfectly!

I love you Sean, you are the man of my dreams and I am forever grateful that you choose me to be your wife.

About Us
Welcome to Max and Me, I'm so glad that you've dropped in to visit!
Max and Me is a blog about being a Mum (the best job in the entire world), enjoying being a family and the long, slow (and fun) process of finishing and decorating our family home.
Here's a quick bit of info about us:
I'm happily married to the man of my dreams (Sean), we got married in September 2008 on a perfect day in beautiful Hervey Bay.
A year and a half later I gave birth to our first son, Max. Max is our everything. Sean and I both count our blessings everyday and marvel at the fact that this amazing and beautiful child is our son.
Shortly before our wedding the Big Man and I built our first home. I say 'built', but really it's still a work in progress and probably still will be for the next couple of years. We have a lot to do before it will be finished and we're saving up a little bit at a time. In the meantime it's still very liveable, but by no means perfect.
The rest of our family is made up of our two adorable pets, Cooper and Ollie. Cooper was our first baby and will always have a very special place in my heart. We've been really fortunate with our pets, they're both very sweet natured and love each other as much as they love us.
As well as looking after Max I also work part-time at a job that I really love. As guilty as it makes me feel to say it out loud I often enjoy having a day off from looking after Max. I used to work four days a week, but have recently cut back to just two days. It seems to be the perfect balance for our family. I get plenty of time with Max and still get to keep my foot in the door at work. I'm lucky enough to work for a company that truly values work/life balance and I hope to work there for many years to come.
Besides being a Mum and working I have a few hobbies that I enjoy. I love making things (crafts, cards, invitations, cupcakes etc), planning parties and catching up with my girlfriends. I have also recently taken up photography, I'm not very good yet, but it's something that I really love so hopefully I'll get better with practice. The hobby I am most focused on at the moment is finishing and decorating our house. I spend hours finding inspiration on blogs and saving the photos away for future reference!
I've been blogging for over two years now and I can't imagine not doing it. I used to blog at My (not so) Perfect Life, I plan on keeping that site up, but all my future posts will be here at Max and Me.
Thanks again for stopping by. I love reading blogs, so please take the time to comment and let me know about your blog so I can find out all about you.
