My 50th Birthday Tea

My birthday was really great!
 I woke up and my mum made yummy scones with jam and cream for breakfast. After a lovely relaxed breakfast with Mum, Dad, Helena and Gavin and a quick tidy up Mum and I went to Ikea for a browse and a cup of coffee.
Afterwards we met Helena, Jo and Levin for lunch in Prospect we all had a very lovely lunch and enjoyed getting together although at times like this we sometimes wish Els could be there as well .
By the time we got back to Mum+ Dads , Mum was ready for a rest and I decided to get some fuel for heading home later, then read for a while till dad got up Rang Els in Holland and had a good chat ,than a quick bit off shopping before heading to Karen+Bennys for tea.
where we cooked lasagna together and Karen made apple berry crumble for desert
We had a lovely meal and great fun hanging out together wish you were there AJ
 
Next time we need you there for our dressing-gown party

Remember when Road trip with Karen 7 may 2007

Road tripping in the country with my little dude,listening to Jack Johnson,and enjoying the view.
A chance to remember that LIFE IS GOOD
The green of the meadows,grey of the sky
The world is such a beautifull place especialy
when were on adventure together
opp shopping.craft shopping,looking for scrapbooking suplies

stoped to look at Spogs shed and other things on the way
we laughed about the seller door sales,getting me drunk before work
all and all a great road trip

Have you ever wondered why we can spend so much time worrying, procrastinating about things, then suddenly inspiration can hit and before you know it the job is done, all that fear, worry and anxiety for nothing. Perhaps it's time to find the courage to just do it, feel the fear work through it and begin to live life joyfully. Sounds so simple, I wonder why we can have these thoughts and then feel the determination, and yet so often we fall back into those old habits. Perhaps next time I'll do better.
