80th Birthday Photos Continued.

Mum and Dad cut the cake.

Mum also made a wonderful speech.

Melanie, my brother's daughter who has worked as a magician's assistant all around Australia, did one of her acts where she does quick changes into different costumes. I sure cannot figure out how she does it. Afterwards she draped Mum and Dad with the feather boas.

Mum and Dad with all of the grandchildren except for Trent and the three great grandchildren had of course, gone to bed much earlier.

OK, now who is missing. Yep, in strolled Michael and Peter, Janice's husband and we hadn't even realized that they weren't there!! So another photo had to be taken.
 Here we all are, all squashed in. Look further down the page!!

My Parent's 80th Birthday

This year my parents, Val and Dave both turn 80. Wonderful. Dad's birthday was on the 5 August and Mum's is still to come on the 12 September.
Our family held a special dinner for them on the 6 August where we celebrated with friends and all of the family except for my brother's son, Trent who had committed himself much earlier on to special dance teaching weekend.

One of Dad's beautiful roses.


The cake. Aren't the flowers on it beautiful? They are all hand made and by a lady who is in the 80's.

 Catherine and me!!
Isn't this young lady beautiful?

My brother, Graham presented Mum and Dad with OBE medals! (Over bloomin Eighty)

Dad made a wonderful speech.
