The party was brilliant ......

Mums early party was fabulous and just what she needed to boost her before her surgery on Wednesday. Mum got some lovely surprises before and during the party. That day a delivery brought her the gorgeous flowers below. They were a total surprise and from a friend who works abroad.

Then a friend who is also a cat lover sent mum this cake she had made for her, look at all the cute cats..



Dad also had a surprise and got this beautiful cake made for mum, her favourite yellow roses adorn it, how gorgeous..


Another friend made beautiful yellow rose cupcakes......


I think we can say the party was a huge success with family, friends , some mum hadn't seen in years all came to help celebrate.

Cuddles from Tristan ( son ) bean...

Lots of laughter...





famous friend too...











Mum could not believe the cards and presents and had to get help to bring them all home.. I checked everything out of course...

Look at all the flowers and the beautiful orchid..

Just take a look at all this.. Mum feels so blessed and just cant believe it...

I just couldn't believe all the plastic for me to lick..

I think we can say it was very special and mum feels so lucky to have had such a fabulous party and to have so many brilliant family and friends share it with her.. Just the lift she needs right now ..

Huge hugs to my friends.... GJ xxx
