Today has been a massive day, and I have been flat out for most of it. But two things in particular make today super special...Today I made two new friends... let me tell you about them:
1. Samuel Jude Kean - well I guess he didn't really get a choice, I just decided that because he was matt and Fee's baby, he had to be my friend, today was just the first time we met and I tell you what he is sooooo beautiful! There isn't really much more I can say other than Congrats Matt and Fee you have such a beautiful baby boy!
2. Was a little more random. After an amazing evening with my good friend Claire enjoying the sweet sounds and very very attractive good looks of Keith Urban at his Concert at Rod Laver Arena we caught the train back to my car at Box Hill. However at the station while buying our tickets (which in hindsight I don't actually think we needed to do) Claire and I were asked for assistance by a french lady, we, being the lovely girls that we are, of course said yes and helped her also purchase the unnecessary ticket. She then told us that she needed to go to Canterbury station but wasn't sure how to as she had lost the group that she was traveling with and they had just told her to catch the train and that she would be fine. So as Canterbury is on the same line as Box Hill we told her to come with us. Being super late at night we had half an hour before the train, so we got to know our new friend a little better. It turns out that she is French, but she has been living in Wagga Wagga for the past 3 years. She got married in France this year, but her husband is still there, but he is coming over to see her for the first time since the wedding (which was 6months ago) to see her for Christmas. All of a sudden the 2hours between Dave and I didn't seem that far! Anyway, it was pretty random, and I guess she is pretty lucky that she bumped into Claire and I at 11:30pm at Richmond station and not someone else.
Oh and here is my favourite photo of Keith from the concert...coz I know that you want to see it...
I guess that's just all part of the adventure!

Just in case you hadn't already read the title of this blog, technology is magic. Today I was lucky enough to share in the dedication of my new friend Samuel Jude Kean. But what made his dedication even more special than others I have witnessed in the past was the magic of skype. With the help of skype and some computer extraordinaires, Matt's parents in Newfoundland in Canadia were able to be part of the service taking place on the other side of the world. I am not really sure what else I can say about it, other than it was something really special and it just made me realise how lucky I am to live in a world where things like skype exist.
