Happy birthday to ME!



Hurrah, it was my birthday yesterday! As my brother-in-law put it 'Rejoice, you're now 90% of 30!'. I think I'll just rejoice it's my birthday, not that part...

Anyhoo, I spent most of the day shopping for party stuff and cleaning. And then my sister and her kids got here and I realised I shouldn't have bothered with the cleaning. Those kids are cyclones in disguise I tell ya!

I had fun even though there were quite a few people who didn't show up. Lots of people were late too so it went quite late and with this morning's early rise, I'm stuffed. It seemed we had more pizzas than people but really there wasn't much left over. Unless you include the cake...cake or death? As Smerk put it, it was death by cake!

Anyway, here's some pics I took. And sorry, I didn't really get one of me in my boots...sorry.


Smerk and I with Chiara. Smerk was such a good sport putting up with the kids. She got jumped on and tickled and had cushions put on her head and she never complained.

Kat and Dan comparing shoes.


Mike (Brooksey) playing the Super NES while we play Apples to Apples


Max sleeping with my snuggle pillow


Christian and Lance, no doubt talking about something nerdy.


Barb with her new hair colour. She dyed it bright pink the other day but it soon faded so she tried copper. Next will be purple.


Today I have Chiara's 4th birthday to go too which means lots of fun fun fun with lots of sick sick sick kids.

*sigh*

Yay for you, Nettie, even if you are getting all ancient and decrepit! So, did you save any of the cake for me?

It sounds like you had a good time. Too bad I couldn't have been there. You all sound like a fun group. And I would have had a good time jumping on and tickling Smerk, I think. . .

I have loads of cake left Acci so feel free to come and have some with me! I can invite Smerk over and we can all have tea and cake!
