Cody and I celebrated our birthdays on the 10th and 14th. Cody had a very quiet day: prezzies in the morning (although he did get spoiled with Seafarers, snorkelling gear, computer games (zoo tycoon trio pack and Age of empires trio pack) a Calvin and Hobbes book and a number of other things). After school he got to try out his new prezzies, for dinner we had spaghetti and then he had club in the evening. We're still hoping to organise a party for him with his friends. Since my birthday was on Friday, that weekend didn't work...
Friday I was spoiled on my birthday. The kids all pitched in and bought me a Wii with a few games (hmm, I'm not sure if it was just for me!! but we're all enjoying it!!) I got a beautiful new frying pan, a bamix, a handbag, a slowcooker recipe book and some more stuff. During the day Dave and I went to the 4WD and camping show to get some things for our upcoming holiday. Then in the evening we had 7 couples come over and spent the evening playing Party Bridge. It was sooooo much fun, I forgot to take any photos, and our guests left just before 2 am!!! Saturday I had to haul my tired body out of bed to prepare for the family invasion. Everyone made it here for dinner and we had an enjoyable time with 12 adults and 23 kids where we could celebrate a few birthdays: Cody, Marg, Lauren and JB. What a blessing to have so much family around and enjoying eachother's company!! I can't wait til next year when we'll all be together!!!

Dearest of dear sisters,
(Do I sound guilty of something?)
I still want to have a delightful birthday chat with you. I won't go into all the excuses why I haven't phoned yet. But I will phone. I did, actually, on Saturday. Did Meagan tell you? I love you, and Happy Birthday. Amanda
