Andrews 50th

Happy 50th Birthday Andrew .....

On the 01 Nov, Andrew turned the BIG 5 0 !

We decided to throw a bash at home to celebrate, and we had an awesome evening .... with friends and family, some walked up the stairs and others came from afar .... he even had a surprise guest from America ..... it just happened that Wilma had come over for 2 family weddings and our party was politely between the weddings ..... it was great having Wilma and her sister Trudy over, Thanks Wil for coming..... To Mike and Rina, I know times are tough for you, but once again, awesome that you could make it we appreciated it so much, Kevin, Tracy, Tash, Darren and Claire, you fitted us in during this hectic time, just coming back from overseas, Claire in the middle of exams, Tash flying in and out, and Darren just being so cool and making us laugh way to much ... Thanks guys it was awesome having you over again .... Denise and Carol, the oldest of friends ... thank you for coming down as well, taking off work, just being here was special, we so appreciate that you all made such an effort to come.  Mark and Mickey from PMB, left the business for the evening to share with Andy .... Thanks guys.  And to all the others that travelled in, thank you it is very much appreciated each one helped to make the evening special ....

I don't do parties, but I have done 2 in the less than 2 months, and they were both awesome and memorable ...... and so very different.  We had 40 guests this time around, and all I can say I loved it, haven't danced so much in a very long time, Thanks Chris for playing such good dancing music .... we showed the young one's how to party ... well enough talking and here are some photo's, thanks to Chantal ....

JUST TO SAY:  WE HAD AN AWESOME EVENING ENDING AT 3 AM WITH ME SENDING MY BROTHER OFF TO BED ........ AND WALKING THE LAST GUEST HOME ....... THANK GOODNESS SHE LIVES RIGHT NEXT DOOR .....
