Turning 27

On Monday, i tuned 27! I have no idea where my twenties have gone.

My birthday celebrations started with friends and family at the waterfront festival over the weekend which i blogged about here. Monday morning, Elle had preschool followed by her transfer afternoon at her big school which she will be starting in september. When Elle and i got back from her school, my sister and niece had come over. We went around some charity shops to find some vinyls. Gilles had bought me a record player at the festival for my birthday and i have managed to find 16 vinyls so far! Monday evening, my brother and his girlfriend and my brother in law came over and we all had fajitas whilst listening to records. It was just a nice, chilled day.
Tuesday was my grandmas birthday and, every year, we go every year for lunch at her local garden centre. I always look forward to it. We picked up some flowers for the garden and when we got home, we spent the afternoon in the garden.

It was just a lovely birthday all together. I love my record player and got the sweetest gifts from some friends. My dear friends, Kat and Madlyn, sent me such lovely packages full of such thoughtful gifts. Thank you both so very much! Kat gave me some sweet little stickers and i just had to use one of them to decorate my record player!

Now my birthday is over, i can start planning Elle's birthday. I have exciting plans and i am collaborating with a lovely online party company to bring her the perfect day and party!
