Antony's 55th birthday

Jo compiled this beautiful video for Antony.  The family went off for an Escape Room adventure (Antony's present) but I stayed home. My mind doesn't operate very well under pressure !

Anusha's birthday party

A lovely night meeting Anusha's wonderful friends, eating spicy Nepalese food and Srini's amazing Chicken Tikka and watching a Youtube of Tanya (Gavin's partner) as a hardcore drummer in a band. I never knew Tanya was a drummer!  I keep learning new things about her.  Amazing.

Jo's 40th birthday

A fun evening out celebrating the 40th birthday of Jo, Yogi's daughter, at a Mexican restaurant. I had an inspiring conversation with Jeremy, an actuary, about our shared passion for creating "works of art" through our work and hobbies.

Millie's 1st birthday party

A fun doggie birthday party at the park.  Matt and Sharmista put on a great splash.  There were lots of doggies and Mack loved it as much as we did.  Lovely to share it with Sharon and Yogi.

Xmas barbecue at King Street

The annual Xmas party at Gavin and Tanya

Great fun and amazing food as always...

Ella's 13th birthday

Ella decided to do The Manly Scenic walk for her birthday party.  What an amazing idea is that!  I helped Brendan chaperone 20 thirteen year olds. A bit like herding cats. There was much laughter and fun.  

In Manly, we met up with Eva and Jodie and we all filled ourselves with delicious pizza.  All in all, a wonderful day and as the day progressed, I realised I was the "official photographer" so got more and more into that.

To Eva

Well, it's official.  You gave birth to pure Sunshine.  Not just once.  But twice!!

It was so special being part of Ella's 13th birthday.  Hopefully these photos will allow you all to relive it a bit.  Best idea for a party of I've ever come across !!

From Eva

They are sunshine!

The photos are just fabulous!

Thanks Graeme
