Josie's Birthday!!

Josie turned into a teenager this year - so we celebrated her 13th in style!! First we had a family celebration at breakfast, then I took her and 12 friends to Waikanae beach for the night. We rented a huge house with a pool and access to a tennis court and the girls had a fabulous time. My sweet friend Sarah came to help me out as we fed a small army but the girls were great and a pleasure to hang around.

The girls were in the pool minutes after we arrived. It was still brisk but it didn't stop them.

Sarah and I celebrated our arrival with a lovely Rose.
