Congratulations Mum and Dad on 40 fabulous years! I don't
have a wedding pic of theirs so you'll have to compare them now with a pic of them in the year they were married {smile}. We had a super time at the Cocktail party on Saturday night and at our family lunch at Bowral on Sunday! You can see heaps more pics on Yvette's blog. There are lots of beautiful ones of our family, I am so happy we got some pics of us girls together, us with Mum and Dad and M&D with all their grandchildren! How special {heart warming with pride}. I also feel so lucky to belong to this family, thank you Mum and Dad for deciding to have children after all, and for bothering to carry that idea all the way to 4!! I'm sure you'd miss me if I wasn't around {wink!} I love the love and support I get from my family and I love seeing our numbers grow year by year with new babies! 
I love you my Family! Enough of the weepy stuff... here's a little of how the weekend went down...Alicia & I had fun serving a bunch of Mum & Dad's friends with all the delicious foods M&D made, plus with some cocktails of our own invention. Have you ever had a request for a non-alcoholic Toblerone? Without the alcohols it would just be cream, honey & ice! We substituted the alcohol with strong plunger coffee, a sachet of Hazelnut hot choc, then added the cream, honey,
ice and chocolate sauce, and I have to say it was super awesome! Go us! {cheering!} LOL!On Sunday we headed over to Centennial Vineyards at Bowral and I'm going to give it 10/10 for a superb day, beautiful location and yummy food & wine! The food was really really cool. Our entree plate was a collection of tiny savoury petit fours- little lamb & beetroot stacks, Creamy Leek soup, fetta & prosciutto rolls, oysters, prawns on a stick. Delicious! Main for me was a steak with a little "pot" of hash brown- it looked like they'd baked it in a shot glass! It was awesome! You can see Willy anxious to try his out in the pic.
It was the perfect place to catch up with our family & celebrate such a wonderful occasion. There was lots of chatting, laughing, stories being told, toasts, hugs, kisses & congratulations. Such a perfect day.Happy Anniversary Mum and Dad! We love you!

I love that you took a photo of the food! I emailed it to catherine cos I'd been telling her about the food. I was a bit disappointed in the hash brown - I was expecting something really crunchy, but there was no crunch in it at all! It had the definitely hash brown taste tho.

Aren't they some kind of native bird?
What lovely comments Charlotte, it was a great 'weekend' and thanks for your ( & Alicia's) help at the cocktail party. We couldn't have had it without you. Thanks for the time at 'The Links' as well as our lovely dinner on Monday night. We had such a lovely time.
Love you all.
Love dad
