Life is SO! much fun - when there are family & friends in your life

BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR POPPI ROB!

He was thrilled and so were the grandchildren

Poppi's birthday party - here he is with just a few of his grandchildren (two missing) they were all very excited to think it was poppi's birthday and they got all the balloons and cake too.

Our daughter Amanda took one of Rob's baby photos and had it made in icing and this was the beautiful cake she had to surprise him with.

Always the kitchen of our homes is the center of every occasion and this day was no acception we had dear friends with us this night and here you can see Gina from Patra's place and her husband filling plates with very nice roast. our son-in-law Tony helping his two and dad & daughter chatting in the back.

Son-in-law doing the dishes, yes! he did and our daughter who is going to be a mum again chatting with Gina.
Son Robbie and his little one (he has two children) and his dad (birthday boy) Notice it is another kitchen photo.

Chatter and gathering is something this family is good at we all like to talk at once and laugh together and again in or around the kitchen.

A precious moment daddy & his little girl.

Now look at this, Gina who collects vintage embroidery pieces can always find a piece to admire and here yes in the kitchen of our daughters home she found a tablecloth and spent a little time chatting about this piece and her collection with Amanda.

Yes! Life is such a lot of fun and never to be taken for granted.

As Gina said to me so kindly last night I am blessed with such a family filled with laughter, happiness and hope. But friends complete the picture so Gina & Ken thank you for being part of a lovely afternoon.
