The rain arrives for Rebecca’s birthday/graduation party!

I went for a walk again this morning, only half an hour or so but I have gone out every day. There are wild lilies on a lot of the verges, only just about to open.
I have also noticed a few of these stripy grasses, will try and find something similar for the garden at home.
Just a general ‘get ready’ day then as the day of the party had arrived. Lee, Kate, Mark and me went out for lunch and collected the ice for the cool buckets. I did sit out by the pool for a while and took a picture of the house and the pool from where I was sitting.

The weather has been dry and lovely all week, today the forecast was for rain and storms at just about the time of the party, and sure enough it arrived.
But it stopped quite quickly and the guests gathered outside.


Then the storm arrived and it was pitch black outside, so everyone came in and pizza and snacks were enjoyed. The storm and rain passed and everyone went outside again.




Then it was cake time.


A group photo and a relaxing mom.

Well done Patty and Lee, a great success.

  1. You’ve done very well with the exercise while you’ve been there. I think that Fitbit had been one of the best things you’ve every had. It’s given you so much motivation.
    The party looked fun. In, out, in ,out! But I’m sure it was enjoyed by all, certainly looks that way. Bet the slightly older generations were glad of a rest after it was over :-)

  2. It all went well despite the weather, beautiful day today and the storm has cleared the air so it isn’t so humid. Packing and travelling today.
