Description

a very good morning to you all :o) thank you so much for all your birthday wishes they made my day .its great to know i have so many good friends :o)..well my birthday was`nt quite complete as my eldest lad is working away from home and so could`nt get home from where he is the first time ever he has`nt been here for my birthday .i was taken out though by june ,my youngest son ,my daughter in law and my 3 grandkids to a posh italian restaurant where we had a lovely meal and then went bowling .we were out for the best part of 5 hours and had a great time .ashleigh took some pics with her camera so you will probably see them on her page .she informs me she now wants a camera like mine cos mine takes better pics :o)..although i must admit she handles my camera better than her compact but thats not to say she`s getting one . it seems the weather is starting to warm as this rose shoot shows. taken earlier in the week . have a great sunday my friends and take care .thanks as always for your support and friendship mick

Just wonderful, Mick!! And it sounds like your birthday was just the way it should have been, except for missing your son. And oh, your Ashleigh, she's going to be a force to contend with, well, more so that she already is!!!
