72/365 – Lance’s 40th birthday

It was Lance’s 40th birthday yesterday, and we had such a full day that I didn’t get a chance to edit and load the photos!
We took it really easy yesterday, just as he wanted it… he’s not interested in having a party so we’re actually going away for a night this coming weekend to celebrate....

70/365 – Green and Blue

I got to my parent’s house this evening to pick up the boys, and Elaine’s friend Robyn was visiting… so they were the unlucky guinea pigs today

27/365 – New baby in the family

My sister bought her first car, and took delivery yesterday of the most gorgeous gun metal gray Mini!
To say that she’s excited about this car is the understatement of the century.  This was a huge decision for her, and she’s bought her dreamHope she has many happy miles in it.

Elaine awarded her honours Cum Laude

Very happy Elaine

I was hugely privileged to witness my sister Elaine, graduate this evening.  My parents are in Ireland at the moment, so I got to see her graduate (she only got 3 tickets to the graduation ceremony)… and have some fun taking photos of her and her friends.
She was awarded her Honours at UJ in Marketing...
