I have just kicked off my shoes and put my feet up in the armchair by the fire, what a weekend we have had! My father celebrated his 90th birthday on the 15th (also my grandaughters 1st birthday) so I arranged a family party for them on Saturday.Twenty seven adults and seven little ones. It was a wonderful day, and Dad really enjoyed seeing everyone, One of his old RAF friends , also nearly 90 came with his wife and it was lovely to see them talking about old times. I was worried that there was not enough food( always do!) but there was too much and the wine flowed freely but we did not run out!
It was great to sit back and listen to the chatter , you know that lovely hum of so many people all talking at once.Sunday we loaded up the car with all the presents and took them round to my parents house Dad said he was really shattered but had enjoyed himself so much.Billy took me down to the local Marina and we had a restful Sunday lunch and watched the boats then back home to clean up the house.
Some birthday cake on the table.Enjoy!
