A Fabulous Time

Last weekend we had a Fabulous Time, celebrating my Birthday.

Those that know me well know that I am not a Party Person hehe quiet little Raewyn. But with the big 6-0 approaching, the desire to have everyone who I cared about together and having a good time really appealed.

Sixties theme, I'll let the photos tell the story....
Not many people recognised the MOML -
My gorgeous sister and I —
Gorgeous family; my sister, daughters, daughter in law and a grandie—
YD and her gorgeous family —
Son, a few grandies and good friend, who dressed the MOML —
Gorgeous bestie —
And gorgeous bestie Kiwikid Sue
Gorgeous cake —
No speeches allowed but one slipped through, read by my niece on behalf of my brother who wasn't able to come over to NZ —
I wanted the night to be child friendly, and the kids sure had fun —
Lily danced the night away —

The band was great and had lots of fun with the (old!) music —
Four generations on the dance floor —
Mum and her siblings (two not in the country at the time); they don't like to miss a family do -
A couple of random pics —


Normal blogging will resume at some stage!
'til next time
happy stitches,
