Heather's big 50 Birthday

Our middle baby.....
Heather.....



 Oh my goodness where have the years gone......

Our lovely Heather has the big 50 Birthday but that nasty Covid ruined her plans....

It was a horsey themed party obviously.....

Heather and her beautiful Daughters Corinne and June organised a party for 40 people on Saturday starting 2pm till whenever.... lol....

I was picking up the cake and on the way home Corinne rang to say Snap Lockdown was at 4pm.....

eeeeeeek no no no...........

So the message went out..... if you are close by and would like to pop around to Heather's there will be cake and nibbles until 4pm.....

So all was not lost and she was able to enjoy a small gathering for just a couple of hours....

Yes she was in tears....

Corinne, June, Dad and me gave her a gift from her bucket list....

she is a dare devil and the gift was a voucher for a tandem Sky Dive....

plus a little Pandora bracelet charm just from me ....

A couple of charms from her girls with a beautiful bracelet.....

I will have to add a photo of it later






Fortunately most of the food was able to be frozen so she can have another day in the future.....

Sadly we had to leave her to enjoy her own company with her horses and cake......

We still had a good time even though it was short....

Certainly a day to remember.....

Happy Birthday Heather....

Heaps of love for you....
