It was bitterly cold at football again today but the Under 13s had a fantastic win against Gundagai, 52 - 0. Alex played fullback and scored a try today too. He was in the play alot today and I thought he was away earlier in the game, he was running for his life in front of the pack but got pulled down. Good effort though.
After football we went to Wagga to buy Riley his toybox and a birthday present for Zeke. Lauren had organised a party for 2 pm so we didn't have much time for browsing. Alex picked a pair of over-sized "The Hulk" boxing gloves that made a roaring sound when you hit something for Zeke. He was thrilled when he got them and all his other presents were forgotten while he ran around after the other kids.
The house was full of kids and their parents, Daniel's mum and sister, friends and family. We were getting hungry too by the time we got there and Lauren had little party pies and sausage rolls that didn't last long. Lauren made two excellent-looking cakes that tasted as good as they looked.
Zeke is a "Thomas the Tank" nut at the moment so his cake had Thomas on the top. Riley is Lauren's Riley Bear so his was a bear covered with coco pops.
Carly and Scarlett.
Daniel with Zeke. It's Zeke's birthday on Tuesday.
Riley turned one on Monday and he loved his party.
It was 2 years ago today that Graham died and I remembered him tonight with a few songs that he loved to listen to. Lauren and I had a bit of a chat about it today, but I'm glad I had the birthday party to go to because my new word for the day would have been maudlin.
