Tonton Parrain's Birthday


Surprise! After quite a bit of effort and lots of organisation, the surprise finally came. The family had arranged for all of David's friends from various parts of the country to come together and celebrate his 30th birthday.

There was a little scare the day before when David wanted to borrow a car, and we were all worried that he might decide to drive to the coast early and spoil the event. So we all refused to lend him a car and offered to taxi him around instead, which he polity refused.



The weather was perfect and everyone had an amazing time outside under the sun enjoying a cold drink.

Uncle David spent a bit of time together.




Robert and I had set up two marquees the day before, either for shade or rain protection. In the end it was for both. There aren't any photos of the incredible thunder storm from Saturday night, because Elo couldn't push the button on the camera fast enough to catch the lightning!








Mum, Dad and a worried looking little boy.

The beautiful Mum and still concerned little boy.

We organised a little sketch for David. Made ourselves look rather silly but everyone had a good laugh.

David got up to sing a number at the end.


Then it was cake time.








He was happy chillin' out with family.


But mum was never far away.


Then evening saw some rather more risqué sketches.




And yours truly joined in again with tiny fake boobs and awful hair.

Happy birthday to David from both of us down under, and our little mystery third as well.

Looks like it was a great day, you guys put on a lovely show for everything every time.

Yes, please pass on my happy birthday wishes to David. It looks like a fabulous party was had by all. Especially that chubby cheeked little angel Owenn. He is looking an awful lot like his daddy did at the same age (apart from the eyebrows).xxxxxx
