My baby turned 18 years old!

Brianna's birthday cake...
~
18 years ago we had a second bundle of joy...
~Me think someone in Taiwan can't spell...
~
Brianna & Kirby. The theme for Brianna's 18th party was Bad Taste Op Shop... friends were told to go and spend about $10 on an outfit (as tacky as you like) - the charity shops did a roaring trade!

Brianna and Maddy

A family portrait...
~
The guests (all of which were Bri's Yr 11/12 school friends) danced, yelled, sang, drank and ate until the wee hours - it was a very long, long night...

Brianna and her cake...

After lunch on Sunday, we were sitting out on the lawn when a bird flew over and ahem... shat on Brianna! I have always considered this to be lucky - she did not! It reminds me of a little rhyme -
Birdy, birdy flying high
dropped a message from the sky.
As I wiped it from my eye,
I said 'thank the Lord that cows don't fly!'

It was a huge weekend but Brianna had the best time with all her school friends who were for the most part, very well behaved. I have vowed never to throw another party at our house, however, for my health and sanity.

Cheers - Joolz

  1. you have two very beautiful daughters. A bird pooped on my wedding dress train and we have now been married 28 years, so it must have brought us luck as well.

    Love the cake,
