Mothers Day At The Farm

Sunday (11th May) was Mother's Day, and we celebrated with delicious spread of A La Carte Kentucky Fried Chicken, and a selection of Shelly's fine cuisine out at "the farm" (Phil & Shelly's place). Three mums were present . . . Valmae (Phil's and my mum), Alison (Shelly's mum), and Shelly (Harley's mum) . . . and Pete's eldest son Simon joined us as well. Harley enjoyed his nuggets, and Shadow, Tammy, & Molly (the dogs) enjoyed the bones. The cats slept all day :)


Obviously Dad and Mum are going pretty well, though we didn't stay there for too long due to Dad's lack of energy and strength and Mum's desire to get home in time for me to get the washing off the line before it rained (we didn't make it anyway LOL!)

Then on the following day (Monday 12th), some old (as in long time) friends of Dad and Mum, Bobby and Faye Hales (and Bobby's sister Bernice) came to visit, and I managed to get a group photo (below) before they left. Spending time with such dear friends is definately one of their favourite pastimes, and as I am here to maximise such experiences, I'm very happy to play the role of host, tea and coffee maker, waiter, and even photographer, while they chat :)
