The great turkey feast :-)

Charles & Christian:

Happy Birthday Grandma!!!

Yuummm (that’s Mum’s hand in the corner )

We all went to Grandma’s house for her birthday dinner, ’cause Grandma’s good friend Madeleine gave her a turkey (an’ it’s not just any turkey… it’s big as an emu!!) so we needed a biiig crew to eat it

Needless to say,  someone was very popular… Debbie and Glennis were more than happy to give Mum a rest!

After dinner we had a rest and played with Dad…

Then it was singing time… “Happy Birthday to Grandmaa!!”

Happy Birthday Grandpa :-)

Christian:

Happy Birthday Grandpa from me and Charles My night was nice and peaceful… first a feed

And then a sleep.

Unlike someone else closely related to me… aka Mr Mischief

Tell you what though… he sure can ea

Grandpa had lots of visitors, even a few from out of town… like Aunty Mel (full time job keeping my brother out of mischief)

Cheryl, on the right, plus Glennis and Geoff to nurse me… check out all those glasses (mostly empty too)

And, of course, I wasn’t allow to go home until Grandma had a nurse for a while… Good night Grandma xx

Ειρήνη

Today was a solemn occassion… I was christened into St Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church in the presence of my family and friends.  The ceremony was performed by Father Joel and my godmother Tiana. I was pretty stressed by all the goings on, but Auntie Katie was helping me, and Mum wasn’t far away!

Once everything was over I managed a big smile for Mum and Dad
