Birthday Time

Image
Please indulge me a little today I recently celebrated my birthday (where has the time gone)  I was very spoiled by my family and friends  We celebrated with lunch at a local pub followed by a beautiful afternoon tea at my neighbours . I really felt like the Queen when I walked in. My brother and his wife made a surprise visit from interstate and all in all it was a fabulous few days.   

Back to the sixties

Image
We recently held a Back to the Sixties dance night at the village.  We all had to decorate our own tables and there certainly was some groovy tables.  I was asked to make paper flowers for our tables so I cut them out on my Zing machine.    We also bought windmills and added them to the table  It was a lot of fun.  

Australia's Biggest Morning Tea

Our village recently took part in Australia's Biggest Morning Tea to raise money for the Cancer Council.  We decorated our hall in the colours of the Cancer Council. Our local Councilor Sandy Landers was present and donated a beautiful cake and asked our oldest resident Barry to cut the cake. Ou residents donated all the food for morning tea as well as the decorations and raffle prizes and were also very generous with their cash donation. We raised just under $1400 and had a fabulous morning.  I made some decorations for the tables.  95 Small pillow boxes with sweets as a thank you gift, donation jars, Cancer ribbons and sweet baskets. We are already planning for next year.

Birthday Cakes for the Boys x 4

Image
Four of the men in our group at the Village held a shared birthday celebration recently.  The rules were bring nothing and no gifts. Well that didn't work very well.  I decided to make each of them a mini birthday cake.  I made cake toppers for each cake  Packed them into boxes with their names and the topper on the box  rather than the cake and a candle for each one.   

Happy Australia Day and Happy Birthday Geoff
