Bristol Zoo and Dave's 30th Birthday

2007-10-22 Zoo & 30th Birthday Fun

I've rather lazily put this link to my Picasa web album where you can see the photos.

We went to the zoo with Becky and Paul who have a son called Joel who is a little younger than Emma. The sun shone and everybody enjoyed the animals.

I had my 30th birthday on the 20th October. We went to Wallmead to see my parents at the weekend. Mum cooked sea bass while Helen went to Sharon's hen night in Salisbury. The next day there was 20 to lunch! I managed to get a photo of all the children in a line.

Sadly the next thing I did was to fall over while chasing my nephews. I landed heavily on my hip and whilst I was only bruised, my camera and phone jointly took the impact and were crushed beyond repair. I only just had the camera repaired! The old camera has been standing in, as has the new phone with a camera that I bought with some birthday money.

Special present

Here's a link to some photos of Emma unwrapping some new slippers sent by Great Uncle Dave, Aunt Lisa and Luke. She loved the slippers, but especially the sparkly confetti! She then climbed into a dressing box and Helen had some fun photographing her attempts to escape.
