Life , #MartinFamdamily Vacay , Beauty and Business

Do you feel that the days are just flying by ?

Wow It feels like awhile since I sent a Blog/Newsletter. Some of you might have noticed my new awesome ,re-designed website by Angela owner or Virtual Reality! (Thanks Ang) , and that my Page Cafe Couch and Mulling_It_Over_With_Mel have joined. If you are like me , it is always awesome to see a face behind a business (make it feel more relateable by getting to know who owns the Business) . With Café Couch /MullingItOverWithMel I want to help Your Business or Product grow and there is no better way then Word of Mouth and Social Media . Where you would be able to see Products , Reviews from me and my thoughts and experiences! The last 2 weeks have been crazy busy! I’ve decided to sell my Bridal Shop after 9 years (Les Belle Femmes) , only because Café Couch is keeping me super busy and I feel I need to be more hands on with my Clients, and with our 3 very busy little boys .I have no time for weekend Bridal Appointments being a Soccer mom and all! Brides-to-Be must be made to feel that they are the only ones in the World Getting Married and with my busy Schedule I felt I could not give this service.. So time to let go (with a heavy heart) and put all my love and passion into my Family and Café Couch! How do You list with Café Couch? How can you add your Business?

Two weeks ago we spent a beautiful #MartinFamdamily weekend at Bushmans Nek in the Berg. A prize, we as a couple won from Hayfields Mall in PMB! How Well Do You Know Your Spouse? We aced it… Thank you Hayfields Mall and Melissa Singh Marketing Manager . As a mom who loves holidays with the hubby and the kids , this is a stunning Hotel to visit. Its beautiful , the staff are amazing , your kids have fun activities daily and you feel like you have had a holiday.. Fishing for the dads , Mini-Golf , Playcentre , Horse-riding , rock pools and 3km down the hill , an animal farm. Do yourself a favour and contact the Destination Holidays & Tours (Ragini) or www.bookings.com for Specials.

I was also contacted by Michelle, owner of a few stunning Beauty Salons to try the New Accor Plasma Corrector. (For my Laugh Lines), as I am petrified of needles and botox . I had my 1st treatment on Tuesday , so keep an eye out on Instagram ,Café Couch Facebook and My Reviews for my up to date pics ,videos and final Results! This could be the treatment you are looking for. Michelle also does home visits which is a Bonus. Hair and Beauty Cabana in Umhlanga ,Beauty in Motion (Mobile) , Beauty Sanctuary at the Drak Sun and soon to be Hilton Beauty Sanctuary are owned by Michelle …. Hilton Mommies /Ladies watch out for that Invite /Specials on Café Couch to her new Salon!

Another amazing morning I got too Host this month with an Incredible Mommy (Crazy Rio), was #WickedMomsClubza.We put metal to the pedal with Wicked Karting at Cornubia Mall. It was AWESOME! We had left hand drivers and we had Schumachers! We were spoilt by Blue Flamingo Bags ,Thirsty Water and yummy snack platter from The Heathly Plate ZA. Watch out for my Next One at the PMB Track! If you have not heard about Wicked Karting , then you missing out. Dads , kids and moms can enjoy a fun day racing around the track! Wicked Karting offer Corporate Business and Kids Party Packages. They are all about safety and fun! The staff are great with kids and first time drivers! They have Monthly Prizes for the Speedsters and Wednesday Specials!
