HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Bring on the Big ten! Welcoming a whole new bunch of ups and downs in this rollercoaster that is LIFE! I hope this year (what's left of it already) brings you a billion smiles!!

I spent New Year with My family in North Queensland and it was Fantastic! I have not been home since and I am EXTREMELY homesick and will be there again in April for my Baby sister Courtney's 21st Birthday (I CANNOT BELIEVE OUR BABY IS 21)

January was absolutely wonderful, Our journey to Tamworth was great, our crowds were so responsive and I had the time of my life on stage with such an awesome band! THANK YOU SO MUCH to all that attended and a really huge thank you for buying merchandise!! We had 6 shows in the five days and loved every minute!

We all stayed together in a house this year, cooked dinner practiced songs (ONCE) watched the tennis, we are like one big family and that's just how I like it! Thanks To Kristian Brooks for organising such great accom! Thanks to Scotty and his gorgeous family for letting us have their house!! I was soooo sad to leave to be honest!

February and March were spent traveling throughout Queensland and NSW for shows, we are slowly moving South People in NSW please hang in there! If only LOGISTICS didn't get in the way!

I spent Easter at home in Brisbane and had a great little get together on Good Friday, Had a singalong and cooked up a huge amount of food for my friends, and lit 100 candles. It was just lovely! I then had a gig to raise money for the Starlight foundation on Easter Saturday and Sunday was spent Having Brunch with friends and then home to watch Boston Legal and Eat Chocolate bunnies in bed hehehehe!!

This week I head out with the Band to play at the KILKIVAN GREAT HORSERIDE it will be fantastic! people come from all over to participate and then the day ends with a great Concert! Jetty Road, Neil Duddy and Myself with the Heelers will be Rocking under the stars!!

This year my hometown of Collinsville was hit by a Cyclone the first one since 1989 and this time it was a category three when it hit but dropped to a two as it passed. It was quite frightening for me as my Whole family were there and I was in Brisbane! My Mum said it was unbelievable the wind and rain! I was actually Quite sad to not be there with them all as scary as it would have been, I cant believe I spent most of my life there and MISSED IT hehehe! I have attached the photo from the Bureau of Meteorology OUR TOWN IS ON THE MAP hhaha.

I have also included a video for you to watch that I took from my iphone while we were traveling to Mudgee NSW good for a laugh!
