So whilst the rest of the world is celebrating Valentine’s Day – it’s a different celebration in our house. My lovely Dad is 70!

Now 70 sounds REALLY OLD (but then having a daughter who turned 40 last year must make you feel really old).  This is me with my Mum, Dad and sisters at my 40th party – don’t we all scrub up well? (and isn’t poor Dad outnumbered?!)

We have lots of family stuff planned over the weekend – including a photoshoot for all 17 of us – 8 adults and 9 kids (the poor photographer!) and meals out.

And maybe Dad and I will fit in a nap (this was us after the Queen’s speech the Christmas before last!)

Happy Birthday Dad – love you bucket loads. xx
