As with most birthdays of latter years, we manage to create birthday week's rather than actual birthdays.... After all, why not make the most of it!
After finally coming to grips with my age, 3 months later I thought I'd throw some photos up of the week long celebrations. So my Qld family could see what I got up to mainly.....
Event 1 - A plan B lunch at my house with my lovely friend's Sarah J and Jodes - we were meant to dine out, but alas a flat tyre put that one to rest. no photos as yet.... if I find some I'll pop them up.
Event 2 - An afternoon tea - with the very capable guidance of Mrs Carla Wallis we threw an almost 'High Tea' event - with wine, beautiful food, fabulous coffee (thanks Rachel!) and most importantly - wonderful company.
Me with some of my favourite chicks - Amy, Asha and Amy!
Cake!! Thanks Mama
The very typical shot of blowing out the candles - my only formality
As with most significant events in my life (i'm only thinking of two, so this is a somewhat dramatised statement) there's always someone who 'dresses up'. My wedding - a pirate, 30th - a confused viking...
Archie and Henry 'saving the day'
The beautiful Millie and Janine
The very excited Jack - part A - before cake
and Part B - after cake
Tom, Asha and Ames
Event 3 - a girls weekend in Adelaide where I was blessed to spend a beautiful Saturday with some of my favourite girls in the Botanical gardens - and two quiet nights with no interruptions, but movies, good food, and great company!
Just a few of my favourite things - Thanks Sarah for organising the food - must do this again!
Was and am truly truly blessed with the fabulous 'family of friends' that God has placed around me wherever I've gone, seem to be continually blessed, and am continually grateful!
