Thank you for the party
from Wendy
What a fine party it was on Saturday for my 70th birthday. About forty of us celebrated with a beautiful feast at a villa in Pacific Harbour with so many relatives from different branches of our family. It was a sunny day so the children had a good time swimming in the pool. Thank you to my lovely daughters-in-law for the care and planning and to our eldest son for insisting that the sometimee shy grandmother be the centre of attention for a day! Vina'a va'alevu to Nau Kisi, Teca, Pinky, Talei and Robin for coming on the ferry from Labasa, Wendy Junr from Vomo Island and Carpenter from Ba. What pleasure it was to talk to family members that we do not see often. Here are a few pictures. Lots more will be on a DVD for the family.
Happy happy Birthday, Wendy!
ReplyDeleteWhen is your birthday? Mine was the 26th Aug, so we must have close dates!
Hello Nzm, actually it was 8th and Beijing put on fireworks for me on that that day. A belated party in Fiji but lots of fun. We are up early (3.30 a.m.)to farewell family who are catching the 4.30 a.m. bus to Natovi/ferry to Nabouwalu/bus to Labasa and one of the girls was frying chicken for the journey!
