Mum's Birthday

It was my Mum's birthday on the 14th, and we decided to throw her a small suprise dinner party. We did not tell her what we were doing, some of us did not call her on purpose....let her think the worst! My sister Sharon (since she stays at home) made dinner, while as usual I was incharge of the cake. My mom came home from work.... and since we were running an hour behind our scheduled time to arrive at mum's place she cooked herself a small dinner....then we all arrived at about 7pm she was thoroughly suprised....needless to say, we all took home portions of her dinner, coz she did not touch it! In all her 48 years mum had never blown out birthday candles....so we made sure we put one candle on the cake....we decided we would start small...next year we will put on the cake the full amount! It was a fun night and we all had fun catching up and laughing....then doing the dishes. The only ones who could not come was my brother Shaunn's wife and kids who are currently in the interior of the Island visiting relatives.

As usual when it comes to cake Noesheen likes to stand first in-line....i think that smile tells it all really! This time we had a hard time keeping both Noesheen and my little sister Sherneez away from the cake before cutting time!

Here is my mum with Noesheen and Zedekiah. Zedekiah is my sister Sharon's almost one year old baby. Noesheen and Zedekiah get on like a house on fire...and Zedekiah has inherited a long list of affectionate names from Noesheen...

Noesheen was so eager to help mum blow out that lone candle...ahem we had to light it several times!

Here is a pict of all of us with mum...left to right there is Sharon...Mum sitting...Shaunn...Me..Simon and the youngest Sherneez.
