Caitlin's 16th Birthday

Caitlin had her 16th Birthday Party yesterday. Her actual birthday was a couple of weeks ago, right in the middle of her GCSEs, so she waited until the exams were over to have her party. Like Adrienne before her, she decided she wanted a Murder Mystery Dinner Party. I went shopping yesterday morning and then she told me that only six people were coming and not eight!

So here they are, dressed like 1950s film stars and personalities. Caitlin looked gorgeous in her dress. I served up a three course meal and me, Carl and Ellie had pizza in the playroom whilst watching episodes of 'Heroes' (Ellie is working her way through the box set). Judging from the raucous laughter coming from the front room, everyone had a good time, although I gather they found it somewhat confusing to start with. Caitlin was the only one to guess the murderer correctly. I blame too much 'Criminal Minds'.

Doggy with a Silly Hat

I've been meaning to put this photo up for a while but haven't quite got round to it. Last Tuesday Willow went to the vets to be spayed. She wasn't very happy when she came home and whimpered for while. But she's much better now - running around all over the place inspite of the lampshade. I expect she's looking forward to Friday when it comes off and she can finally go through the catflap again. I know we are!
