Geoff turns 60! Officially a senior - wow!
We celebrated with a quiet night for two down at the Gold Coast the weekend before his birthday on the Monday. It was incredible - about 50 mins from home and felt like we had gone overseas for the weekend with the shops all open late and a very buzzing nightlife. We don't usually go to Surfers itself rather head for Broadbeach so was nice for a change.
On the Monday was his actual birthday. I went to pick the children up from Kaisha's ballet, took them home for a quick afternoon snack, picked up Geoff and headed into Georges for a birthday dinner.
I was invited to a breakfast in town to celebrate Bastille Day - wished I was back in the gorgeous country of France :(
Met Laura at the Rocklea markets another favourite of ours
Then we got tickets through work to go the Reds game with our Executive Assistant Marilyn and her husband. We caught the train in and it was a great game.
And finally it was a business trip on the calendar to Emerald.

I found a golly at the Mount when I was fifty so was great to get a matching golly for Geoff's 60th! |
