This weeks gallery prompt has been a tricky one, I had a hard time choosing from so many great memories! Travel, friends and family all featured in the contenders, but in the end I had to go with these pictures of my Grandmothers 80th birthday party this summer.

The Birthday Girl! |
It was a really special day for me as I don't often get to spend time with all the family together. The sun shone all day and we spent the afternoon in my Granddads beautiful garden. This is a place that holds many great childhood memories for me, even though they have moved house since I was a little girl. The planting, pots and style reminds me of the original garden, down to the stone horses that I used to pretend to ride! I watched Dodo play with toys that I remember playing with at the same age and the joy that her great grandparents had from seeing her.

Dodo has worn him out! |
I hope that Dodo will be able to remember the day and I'm looking forward to more special memories when my Grandparents meet the twins.
Looks like a lovely day. That cake looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteWhen are your twins due? About December time. Hope you are not starting to suffer too much. It is all worth it trust me.
