Celebrating Marian's 80th

80th, originally uploaded by Things We Love.

Three generations celebrated Marian turning 80 (Rob's Mom, Alex's Granny & my Mum-in-law).

Wonderful dinner, complete with speeches and toasts to the birthday girl! Fine china and silver was set and the feast shared with all the family - and what a feast.... roast leg of pork, grilled pineapple, scalloped potatoes & the famous 7 layer salad. Chocolate truffle cake.

Followed by fireworks in the evening and a wonderful brunch in the morning.

Best of all was being able to celebrate a long life, well-lived.

Happy Birthday, Marian!
