Birthday Bash

Last weeknd it was my husband’s 50th Birthday and what a birthday party we had. Luckily after a week of rain the weather was on our side on Saturday and we managed to get the garden set up with gazebo’s and plenty of chairs for everyone. With the help of my sister and her husband we put up the balloons and bunting, and even though I say it myself,it looked pretty good.

Once we were set up it was time to prepare the food and set up the drinks table. This was laiden with every spirit imaginable and the fridge was stacked to the gunnels with beer. Along with this we also had trugs full of ice and bottle of beer, so as you can imagine,  once the men got settled with buckets of beer by their sides they didnt move very far (until the boxing came on just before midnight!) when they all decided to pile indoors and take root in front of the TV.

The boys watching the boxing (how rude)

For the girls/ladies (I’ll use that term loosely) we spent the night dancing away in the conservatory until the men decided to join us again after the boxing. The party carried on until 6.30 Sunday morning and we didnt surface until 3.45 Sunday afternoon,and it is fair to say it was definately one of those I’m never drinking again moments! (Until the next time) Roll on next year when its my turn!
