Little Indiana Rose Kros was born...yes on my birthday. Sofie and James are good friends of Tash and Todd's, we were all happy to hear the exciting news.


Everyone was so sweet at golf today, lots of hugs and best wishes...lunch and drinks were bought for me...had a very enjoyable game in sunny weather with Jane W, Jisun and Anna. Anna and I both played well and we came third in the Jubilee Foursomes.



Dinner with Pete at our local Italian restaurant Al Fornetto ...terrific Italian food and good wine (we brought home what we didn't drink...surprisingly.)

I just love this photo that Tash took. I'm so pleased that that piece of furniture can stay in the family and be used well (a cubby).

Today we had lunch at Bar Thyme in Footscray...my Mother's Day and birthday present from Chris and Michelle.


We had the set three course roast lunch and it was not at all what I expected.  They brought this entree out to share and then the roast pork...


The food was sensational and the restaurant had a very comfortable atmosphere..


I think they are a perfect match...


...and I guess we are too.


On our way to the Milk Carton Kids concert at the Thornbury Theatre.



It was an awesome concert...two chaps from USA who sang and played guitars and banjo...unbelievably talented. I enjoyed every moment of it. What a fabulous day it was.

Dear sweet Monty...


Chris made pancakes for breakfast...


While Chris and Michelle worked Pete and I set off for a long walk to Altona beach....


... and further east....Laverton Creek 


Looking back were beautiful views to the city.


The view from the food hall in Emporium shopping centre....


So many interesting buildings....



The drive home over the West Gate Bridge....and a beautiful sunset.


Quite coincidentally Jeremy was in town for the Australian Netball Grand Final which is tomorrow evening. We all had a splendid dinner at the Hobson's Bay Hotel in Williamstown. Pete took this photo back at Chris and Michelle's....and I have heels on!
