My youngest Michael had his 27th Birthday on Saturday and for the first time in his life we never got to see him on his birthday
He has joined the Army Reserve and is away at camp training for 28 days.
Looking forward to seeing him at March Out in a couple of weeks time
Thanks to Michael and his partner Chantelle, Max and I celebrated Michaels birthday with a night away at Morning Star Estate in Mt ElizaThey gave us a night away with accommodation, 3 course dinner and a full breakfast at Morning Star Estate as a thank you for letting them come home to live while their house was being built last year. Such a sweet thing to do

You can see Port Phillip Bay in the background
I wouldn't want to have to do the gardening here - so many roses to keep in shape
To the left is Mornington Golf Course - great views from that course

Hi Alison that place is gorgeous and looks very relaxing. What a great present to you. Good to see that you are better now I know exactly how you felt I was pretty sick with the same thing too. Take care Carol
What a lovely looking place. It must have almost been hard to go home again!
God bless your son for wanting to serve in the Army, sugar; he's a hero!! I love military men. He's also a hunk.
I'm sure that night away was wonderful for y'all.

Hi Alison
That was so sweet of them to do that for you and Max, it's nice to now you're appreciated.
I've been there for lunch, but didn't get to walk around the gardens, it looks beautiful.
Happy birthday to Michael!
Can you imagine this time 22 or maybe 23? years ago we were nervously standing outside the class room door waiting for our two little prep boys to be let in!!
