Julia's Birthday

My birthday was spread over a few days this year. On Friday Ben made me go into his work to meet him for 'lunch' and I was given a voucher to go across the road and have a manicure, facial and massage at a beauty school. It was lovely to have some time to myself. While I was being pampered Ben looked after the kids at his work and did craft stuff with them. They were very well behaved and had lots of fun with Dad!


Saturday morning we took the kids to Pelican Park but it was really cold and windy and we didn't last very long!
















We had a bit of a birthday BBQ with Gwen and John at their place on Saturday night. Jared insisted on having dress-ups so Gwen had to dig some hats out then he wouldn't even wear one! Don't you love their table (hehe)! A new one is on it's way.

Dani LOVES her Aunty Gwen! She always has the biggest cuddles for her.


I had to make my own birthday cake! Jared did help by cracking the eggs and doing the decorating though!

We did some sparklers after tea and the kids loved them :)

Monday (my actual birthday) was a bit quiet. I spent it at home with the kids and had a few phonecalls. It was lovely to be remembered and to catch up with people.
