My birthday passed on the 28th of May and what an amazing birthday it was!
I was woken up to gifts from Wayne, Camden and my family, messages on my phone from my dear friends near and far. When I arrived at work my desk was decorated with gifts, balloons, a happy birthday sign and everyone was there to sing Happy Birthday to me.
During the morning I also received an edible bouquet delivery at the office from my best friends Jen and Tom in Australia, that was such a surprise and so not expected! What a great gift and awesome idea. I love flowers and I love chocolates, especially ferrero rocher put them together and you get an edible pretty bouquet of chocolates!
The evening of my birthday we had my family and my best friend and her family over for a build a burger evening in light of the fact that it was also International Hamburger day on my birthday. I sure do love burgers so it was a win win in my eyes really. Who doesn't love a burger! They were so yummy!
My gran made homemade burger patties, they were to die for. We had burger buns, lettuce, bacon, pineapple rings, cheese, gherkins, tomat, avo, mushroom sauce and a side of fries if you wanted. It was a fun night.
How Yummy did those burgers look?!
Saturday after my birthday Wayne told me to be ready by 1pm as he had my birthday surprise planned for that day. The entire week I had been trying to figure out what he had planned but for the first time Wayne managed to keep this a complete secret. I assumed he was taking us for a couples spa afternoon because I couldn't possibly put my finger on anything else that it could be.
He fetched me a little after 1pm and when we started driving he said we needed to stop off at my best friend Tatum. At that moment I thought something was up but wasn't expecting to rock up to a house full of my friends, a birthday cake and a massive sit down meal that Tatum and the girls had prepared. How amazing is my fiancé and my girl friends. I am loved!
It was such an awesome afternoon and evening. Life has been so busy with Camden, it was so nice to unwind and socialise with friends I hadn't seen for some time.
Things got crazy, excuse the terrible phone quality pictures...What a great party and I got so many great gifts too!
The Sunday after my birthday party was my grandma's birthday and we celebrated her special day with a family buffet lunch at Schoongezicht with a hangover. More on the lunch coming soon :)
