Happy 40th To You!

Today was my Birthday (incase you hadn't guessed that already!)
And yes, I turned 40!
Can't believe I am that old really - that snuck up on me.
But age is only a state of the mind (so they say).

I received these 2 lovely plants. The card didn't say who they were from, but after some investigation I solved the mystery - thanks Mom & Dad (and the rest of the Magee clan).
The pink plant is growing on a rock, it's not in any dirt. I hope I don't kill them!

I have to admit that I was feeling a little 'blue' - being that I wouldn't be spending such a 'milestone' with my nearest and dearest in NZ. It didn't help matters to know that a good number of them would all be together partying it up for Justin's 21st birthday (my nephew) - on my birthday (well it was my birthday here in Canada).

Well one of the ladies here - Yolanda Hall found out it was my birthday and invited us for tea on Friday night.
Unknown to me (but Alistair knew), she had invited 2 other families also for tea to help celebrate.
It was a lovely surprise.
We had a great evening of good food, good company and good fun.
It really cheered me up.




Alistair decided we should go to Whistler for my birthday.
We haven't been there before, so it will great to check it out.
I will let you know what we think of it on my next blog (we have only just arrived here).

bye for now.

P.S. Missey has improved alot. She is still doing her duck impresonation, but no where near as much - which is great.

P.S.S. Remember to double click on the photos to enlarge them.
