While I am determined that a separate blog will not be written for my 4..th birthday tomorrow, I wanted to include these latest photos, showing firstly the kids enjoying the pool in Avignon (Queensland-style). While the water was absolutely freezing, due to no heating and gradually cooler weather, they had a ball and were determined to make Sasha's birthday weekend fun for her...blue lips and all! I must add, it felt very strange to be staying in a 4-star hotel completed 2 years ago, metres from a famous and historic 12th Century french town...having said that, got used to the luxury very quickly!
Sasha was thrilled. The package arrived by courier Montpellier-style, just before school pick-up. I was able to quickly put the items on display, and was rewarded by a huge smile from Sasha when she came through the door. Will was our artistic director and did a fabulous job creating the perfect set.
It was a wonderful climax to a great weekend. I hope Sasha won't mind if I break the news to her gently...carnival is now over my darling!

Gosh, that pool looks crowded! It was nice of all the other patrons to get out of the way for your photos. It looks like your typical Queensland photo of crazy Southerners swimming in Winter! No, really it looks lovely, and I love that Sasha has the "Starlet by the pool" pose down pat!
ReplyDeleteI notice there are no photos of you in your birthday bikini (wait, that doesn't sound quite right...). If life begins at 40, then we should be seeing a photo of you toddling around in a pink frilly number!
