Another Wedding Another Birthday.

Saturday was rather windy when we arrived at Bel Haven Wentworthville for the wedding of Tony's ex work colleagues, Vicki and Neil at 4pm. We had the right day this time. The ceremony was held outside and the bride was late so I was glad when it was over so we could go inside and get warm. The place it was held at was where Catherine had her reception when she married Allan and it was then owned by Johnny Lockwood. Johnny was an actor and was on of the stars in 96 the serial on many moons ago.

After we had eaten and it was around 8.15pm and the speeches hadn't started we thought we


had better make a move before they did as it would be rude to walk out in the middle of them.....and you know how speeches waffle on. So we missed out on the wedding cake......and it looked such a lovely cake. We set our Navman on to Gordon Golf Club and headed for David's 60th surprise party. There were mainly teachers there from all the different schools he had taught and some from teachers college. They tell us David was surprised and had no idea that this was happening particularly as it was a couple of weeks after his birthday. Amanda had done a good job at organising and keeping it secret. David got a second surprise when we arrived and said he just thought we had not been invited.



This picture of the group was taken after everyone had left. Yes. I have on the same outfit I wore to the 50th Wedding Anniversary. Kristy did not attend as she had a migraine.

I have won the money for the second week in a row at our Monday Euchre night. Both times I have had to share 1st prize so hopefully I can win it by myself next week.

I looked after Felise and Jake as Kerry-Ann was working today instead of Thursday. So after hanging the clothes on the line, Jake having some yogurt and getting the children dressed we ventured off to Earlwood Library for Storytime for the under 5's. Felise got two chairs out, one for Jake and one for herself to sit on. They watched a short video then Steven read a few stories about pigs. Felise got a bit bored with the stories and proceeded to explore the library and give me lots of cuddles. Jake decided to stack all the chairs up and hide. When the singing started they both enjoyed this and Felise participated and Jake watched. They then coloured in pictures of a pig. This finished about 12 noon so then we went to McDonalds for lunch. When we pulled up at Mcdonalds Felise said "this is where David and Simone took me". We had nuggets and french fries and Felise polished off some for Jake. They then had a play in the playcentre before we returned home. After a drink of milk Jake was ready for a sleep and Felise got out the Lotto and won both games. We were just beginning to play a game where you take the children to Big school when Mummy came home.

Tomorrow is Craig's Birthday. Happy 39th Birthday Craig.
