Gene se Birthday braai saam met ons pelle

Yesterday we could again have all our friends over for a braai-party to celebrate Eugene turning 9 on the first of January. The party, and water-fight, seems to be becoming and institution and was great fun. Eugene only got out of bed at 9am, which tells you a lot. Just as surprising was Karla being up at 8:30 (i.e. before Eugene), which just never happens, so expect rain or snow...

To everyone who came, thanks so much for making this day special. Without you guys coming down here, it would never be the great celebration it is.

Dankie Here vir al ons seeninge, liefde van ons vriende en alles wat U vir ons gee. 

Hier kom die fotos...some great, fun-filled snaps too!

Jess, Eugene and Karla just before the first guests arrived.

Die manne, diep in gesprek oor die Weber en watter punt wind-op moet wys, hehe.

Karin putting the 9 candles on Geno's Storm Trooper cake.
PS: Love my Yak stubby holder too. Just thought I'd throw that in there...

The birthday-Boy!

The mandatory Happy Birthday song in progress.
Dankie almal; so dankbaar julle kom deel die dag saam met ons.


A rarity...Jess snapped this pic of Karin (aka my Lief) and I. Thanks mejuffrou.

Lily doing her party-trick with her salty-stone. Goes zombie-crazy if you try and take it from here.

The ladies chilling out. Unfortunately Mariaan and Petie had to leave early.

Slagter chill op die bank voor ons poeding opskep. Bad Spanner ;-)

Gene, Sanchia, Mila, Karla & Jess. Hulle word te gou groot!

...hier begin dit. Eers die Nerf-gun fights, ...

...toe Mila met die Iron Man disc-launcher...

Een van my gunstelling foto's van die dag. Baie mooi. 
Nogga mooi foto. Julle is maar mooi mense hoor! 


Ek laaik ook die foto. Almal lag so lekker.

Eugene, in his usual fashion, kept on looking for trouble with the big-boys.
Well, eventually he got the trouble he was seeking. Here is a 5 photo sequence.


Here he is asking me to help in a panicked tone. No chance!



Then Stevaans tipped the Esky on Eugene, uuhm, I mean Greg...look at Greg's face.
Blurred snaps, but I still like them!

Impact! Greg, we'll get Steven next time ;-)
