Top 5 ways to spend this October Long Weekend.
1. Pack a picnic with your partner, family or friends. Spring is in the air and the outdoors are buzzing.
2. Visit a major city, there are many festivals and free events on this long weekend ranging from Jazz festivals, Oktoberfest, and free events for all the family.
3. Get stuck into the garden, a backyard renovation can be as simple as a little bit of weeding, planting a herb garden or adding a worm farm.
4. Invite an old friend to breakfast or brunch, go to myinvites.com for some fab online invitations.
5. And finally, If the weather is warm enough, 3 days at the beach will do just fine!Labels: family., long weekend, long weekend ideas, october long weekend, picnic, top 5 ways, weekend

Rekindling the Romance on the long weekend
Monday, 29 September 2008
It’s easy to get bogged down in day-to-day life, but occasionally it’s important to put time aside for that special someone. This week, why not book in a dinner date, or start planning a special trip away for the long weekend…
• Send an invitation, and keep the details a mystery (time and place aside)
• Prepare a delicious home-cooked meal, order in, or book a table out
• Set the mood with some great music, wine and candles
• Call in a babysitter, or farm the kids out if necessary
• Why not make a weekend of it? A change of scene is good for the soul, and will give you both something to look forward to – book in now!

Ideas For a Wet Easter Long Weekend
Friday, 21 March 2008
An Easter Egg hunt just isn't as fun in the rain... so here are our top 5 ideas to have fun indoors this Easter Long Weekend...
1. Board game bonanza - Crack open the twister (great clothed and as a de-robed alternative), monopoly, pictionary and invite your mates round for an Easter Long Weekend board game marathon. If you tend to get a little competitive, grab your silver coins and invite the neighbours round for a poker party. Check out our poker party ideas here: http://myinvites.com.au/site/theme.aspx and some awesome free poker party invites here: http://myinvites.com.au/site/event/browse.aspx
2. Movie Mayhem - Visit your local cinema, jump online or grab that DVD you've been wanting to watch this Easter. Heat up some popcorn, grab your doona and you're set. Stuck for ideas? Check out TIME's 100 all time greatest movies and make the choice easy:

3. A Hit of History - Visit your local museum this Easter long weekend! There's no doubt you'll learn something. It's the perfect time to visit a museum or local gallery.
4. Prioritise your pics - Get the family together this Easter and trawl through old photos that need to be put into albums. Sort them into piles and pop them into books. If you've gone digital, sort through your CD's or folders and choose some great photos to print and frame.
5. Rumble under the covers - And with no real reason to venture outdoors it's the perfect excuse to cuddle up with your favourite other person. No further explanation required.
...and a bonus idea for the organisers amongst us... get organised now for the next long weekend in April!
