Family get together


Well yesterday was the family get together for my mum's special birthday! It was as mad and chaotic as usual and I loved it! My auntie M hosted it and cooked about 90 % of the food and it was scrumtastic! plus I was lucky enough to be given some of the left overs so we didn't have to cook tonight (doubly great as I worked until almost 8pm today!!). My sister made the most delicious 2 tired choccie cake covered with flakes and the obligatory special number sticking out the top!! I just had to bring the booze so it was easy for me.
we always have our ups and downs at these family get togethers with 3 generations and lots of personalities. The funniest thing was the card my gorgeous 20 year old neice gave to my mum. It read ' You know you are getting old when your friends smell of piss!!!'. I cracked up laughing I thought it was hilarious sadly mother 'was not amused'!!
