Happy 60th Nanny

Mum/ Nanny celebrated her 60th b'day this month and to celebrate there was a great party at Eyensbury.  Lots (and lots) of food, quite a few drinks, a few speeches and b'day cup cakes helped to make the night a huge success.  Happy b'day to the best mum in the world!

The Birthday girl and her fella !

About to blow out the candles - Happy b'day to you!

No way ! You really got plane tickets for your b'day present?

Speeches - Dad possibly being a bit cheeky.

What beautiful kids !

1st ever Pony Club Rally !

Today saw the full circle of Pony Club attendance for the Pikes/ Walkers. After many years of absence I finally returned to the pony club scene (and I have to say it felt very good being back, eating morning tea next to the horse float). So yes,  Abi and Emily attended their first pony rally and they had a fantastic day, even though they had to share a pony.  Even before the day was finished they both asked when they could come back and complained it was too far away when I said next month.  Here are a couple of snap shots of the lovely Lily (she is one fantastic pony - what a legend!) and the girls.

Lloyd's 40th

Lloyd got the chance to celebrate his b'day at Disneylad but for some reason he wanted to have a quite party at home with his mates too.
We got together on ANZAC day and despite the rain keeping us indoors we had a great time with family and friends.

B'day cake for the big boy - all the good things - Thomas and Lightening McQueen.

Angus requested Ball games for his party.

It was a bit breezy so we had to blow out a match instead of 4 candles!

Mmmmm coloured popcorn.
