Last weekend, we drove to Wagga Wagga for my Aunty's 60 birthday celebrations. We arrived Thursday night and went to Aunty Su's house for a celebration with the rest of the church. It was great to see everyone in our old church. My Dad, Mum and brother also came over from Adelaide and my brother, sister-in-law and their 2 children came over from Sydney, along with my Grandad and Grandma from Sydney. With me living in Canberra and all my family so far away, it was SO great to see them again.
On Friday, all the families with young children, went to Wagga Zoo. We had a lot of fun watching the kids feed the animals, get excited about hungry donkey's and playing on the playground. It was also a great opportunity to get family photos.

On Friday night we had a family birthday celebration at the RSL Club. It was so good to be able to catch up with cousins, uncles and aunty's, grandparents, etc who I hadn't seen in such a long time.
On Saturday we had a small family celebration for my Grandad whose birthday was on the same day as my Aunty. We went out for a nice picnic where the kids ran around, played on the playground and fed the ducks. Ben and I were especially excited because we got to take some photos of the kids and the 4 of us in the park where Ben and I used to go often when we were dating and engaged.

Saturday night we went to Hogs Breath Cafe with Ben's family for Daniels birthday. It was a nice family time and a great big meal. Ben, Daniel and my brother Nick then went to the movies and the rest of us went home to put the kids to bed.
On Sunday we went to Church and were able to catch up with our old church family again.
Overall, it was a wonderful weekend filled with lots of family time and great catch up chats. The only down side was that my sister and her family were not able to come and we missed them a lot.
But, happy birthday Aunty Su, Grandad and Daniel.
