224yrs old and 51yrs old Happy Birthday


Happy Australia Day everyone........................in this house it isn't just Australia's birthday it is my darling husband Tim's birthday and today he turned 51..................

So to celebrate we have had the girls and grandkids over for lunch along with Kathy's man Michael and my sister Sandra and niece Temika and of course my mum and dad..............

Lunch consisted of snags, bacon, rissoles and my brother honey soy chicken and a pasta bake and a potato bake with a chocolate birthday cake. The rissoles tasted awful and even the dog didn't eat them but everything else was yummy and most of the food was eaten.

I was up at 6.30am baking the cake and then doing the pasta and potato bakes and cleaning the house again, I have swept the lounge room floor about 7 times today 6 times before anyone arrived and yes I know it was just family but I wanted the house to look good.

It was loud and a bit chaotic but it was good although after about an hour Kathy and Tasha had to leave the noise was getting to them and I have to be honest I was also glad when everyone had left and the house was kind of quite again, I say kind of as we have Leo here again tonight and he is a hand full at the best of times......................lol

  1. Happy Birthday to your hubby and to Australia! Sounds like a fun time. Any day that includes bacon and cake is a good day in my book! YUM! :)

  2. Happy Birthday to your dear hubby and happy Australia Day. I think it's lovely that you wanted the house to look good for everyone. Wonderful to have the family together like that as well. Days like these are always special, but it's always good to get back to normal when they've gone!! I'm fairly quiet here most days, apart from when the two little ones come over twice a week.

  11. Sounds like a good day despite the rissoles. Sometimes the ones I get from the butcher are shockers. Always better to make them yourself I find.

    Happy birthday to Hubby
