A Baby Shower, A Birthday and all on Australia Day




Here in good old Aus it is Australia Day and what does that mean to me well it is a day to celebrate the birth of the love of my life……………Tim…………he is 52 today. He received a presents for each of his daughters along with me and of course something from mum (my mum). Here are a couple of photos of his presents and cards.

Now because it is Tim’s birthday I thought it would make a good day to have a surprise baby shower for Kathy-Lee, she had said she didn’t want to have a baby shower but I thought differently so I arranged it for today. Some who I asked didn’t come this did bother me a little but not overly all in all it was a good day she got some great presents and seemed to be happy and yes she was surprised with made me happy. 

Here are some photos of the baby shower she I did a mince dish along with some damper and had a nice pink cake which I forgot to take photos of…………silly me…………………..lol

  1. What a lovely time! I'll bet she was completely surprised. I am going to expose my ignorance. What is damper?

    1. Damper is bread made from flour and water it is round and the one I get is easy to pull apart into a dozen pieces, in the olden days it was made in the camp fire by swagman and drovers.

    2. That sounds like pan de campo here. It is a round flat bread still made lots of times over a campfire by cowboys~
