2022 Maryanne's birthday!

Julia organised a surprise birthday party for Maryanne. We flew over to Perth. We had a really nice weekend.
Here's Oli in the airport, once again confused by his Dad? Not sure what the trouble is with this shot. Maybe he didn't have enough time to do the finger up.
We got in 2 hours prior as there had been problems with the queue, but no worries for us. It took about 15 minutes get in.. Fil, Lou and Oli make the most of the wait, taking it easy.
We got a car from the airport, picked up Ceal and Carl, had a quick lunch, then went to help set up the house. The nibbles were an artwork, courtesy of one of Julia's friends. Who makes salami flowers??
The banner of photos was pretty embarrassing. Maryanne didn't complain though.
Waiting for the guest of honour, Polly the dog aka Pooky or Pookmeister, entertained.
Lou, me, Ceal and Carl taking it easy.
The band was a hit. Joe on keyboard, Juilia singing and Allan making the jibes.
The guests as Maryanne walked in.
Maryanne was open mouthed and speechless, a bit teary. 
Maryanne, Fil, Ceal, and me. So nice to be together.
And onto the long weekend of eating. At Mandoon estate: Oli, me, Marie, Fil, Julia, Maryanne, Ceal and Carl.
Went for a walk to church at 7.30 in the morning. And that was it for the exercise side.
In Fremantle with the boysssss. Went to the markets. Got some new hand made wooden spatulas. I suppose we walked along main street a bit.
Marie met up with RaRa in Maylands.
Pete watching Chelsea versus Everton, 1 nil to Everton and the rest of the game was defensive, so kinda dull.
