DAY ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-THREE

Finally a nice day after so many windy rainy days... I did a lot of gardening, including mowing the lawn, and Joshua got lots of fresh air and some playtime with Sophie in the afternoon.

Today is Peter's birthday! My little brother is 22.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETER!!!

DAY SIXTY-THREE

It is Taro's birthday today!!! I bought him a couple of books that he had asked for. As a surprise I prepared him a lovely 3 course dinner, and picked him up from work. I hope he enjoyed it, even though he had to work.

DAY SIXTY-TWO

Today is Mother's Day in the UK, so Happy Mother's day to all mothers in the UK! Taro's parents went home today, so before they did, we sang Happy Birthday to Taro for tomorrow and sliced his Snoopy cake.

DAY ELEVEN

I've spent all evening baking and decorating this cake. I put a lot of effort into making cakes for other people's birthdays, so decided that I needed to treat myself too. It didn't come out exactly as planned, but I'm quite pleased with my birthday cake. Now I just need to decide whether to eat it tomorrow or on Sunday when I turn, eek, 31!
