celebrations
This week, my grandfather turns 90, the day before that my father turns 62 and the day before that my son turns a big 5! It is a week full of parties..and all at my house. So in between all the organising, I'll pop in to say hello.
Mr A celebrated with friends on the weekend. They made fruit sticks, drove pretend racing cars around the house to find some treasure, tried to bash open a pinata, and all left with succulents for party bags. I managed to keep the sugar content down to a reasonable level, and it wasn't missed at all. Wow, where did my baby go?


Happy birthday to everyone in your family! How cute did you son look with his thumb in his mouth and holding his all important number 5!!

...perhaps that's a great idea for an as-time-flies-by-cake on your photo. My twins will be 18 in 2 weeks!!;)
Happy birthday to everybody!!
