33 years young ?!?!

This old chook turned 33 yesterday and there is a lot to be thankful for.
Thanks Mum and Dad for the gift of life, Hubby for the gift of Marriage, Sisters & Brothers for the gift of unrivalled friendship, Kids for the gift of Motherhood and friends and rellies for everything else.....
It was a beautiful, sunny day and I was surrounded by love, laughter, music and sangria.
My brother surprised us last week and returned from Europe unannounced, so yesterday we combined 33 female years with 9 months of the male travel bug and had one big birthday/welcome-home PARTY!

I was spoilt rotten and showered with gifts and love...thank you to each and every one of you.











(If I hadn't drunk so much sangria I may have taken some decent photos of everyone!)

I know these material things don't compare to the lourve flying around yesterday, but they did put a smile on my dile:



Mum knows I love a pop of colour!






Thanks one and all for making my day special. 
Hugs

  2. Happy Birthday for yesterday it looks like a great family gathering from the pics. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a lovely comment on my blog. I loved looking through the "sleep anywhere" photos and my favourite was the one half on the pillow half on the chest of drawers...too funny. I've got one of my 4 year old asleep up 3 steps and one night I went in to check on my 2 year old (she's now 7) and she wasn't in her cot and I got an awful fright and then found her on the other side of the room on top of the change table. I love capturing those moments because when you group them together they do make a great story. Enjoy your week. Regards Kathy A, Brisbane, Australia.

      What a fright finding your little girl on top of the change table....I'm sure I'll be snow white before I'm 40. Kids!
