Boxing Day Bridport birthday

On Boxing Day Sarra turned 7. She was so excited to be going to Bridport to celebrate it with her cousins. The weather was quite windy and a bit cold when we got there and Nanny Gibson was already at Collette's house with the dogs all set for a nice quiet break from school.

That was not to last with us and the Wheelers and their 2 dogs descending on the place. That was okay because next door also had about 3 families with young kids and their dogs too so it turned into a pretty noisy street. Luckily Collette is on YSA convention in Melbourne so she can't see all the mess. (he,he)

Sarra got a pair of swimming goggles for her birthday and a beautiful dress from Nanny she can wear to church. Simon and I got her a necklace in Thailand from this huge jewellery place. It is supposed to be famous for its wonderful gems and stones but I did not notice anything special about it. Her necklace is silver with a little S on it. She also got a Bratz doll. They are the ugliest things I have ever seen.


After Sarra's birthday tea we all played games and tried to get the kids to bed. because they were all sleeping downstairs on blow-up mattresses they were just too hyped up and it was about 11pm before they settled down. We certainly had tired little vegemites the next day.
