Amy Therese turned 13 last week and had a mocktail party for 42... yes that's right 42... girlfriends. Dress was semi-formal and they all arrived in their finery and drank their mocktails out of champagne glasses with fancy umbrellas. It didn't take long for them to kick off their high heels though, and jump on the trampoline and play spotlight with torches down the back yard!!!
Amy was rolling in vouchers and jewellery given as presents, and I think I might borrow a few as she won't miss them. To help the time pass, a few Mums and I added a dash of rum to our mocktails to make them more festive whilst we heated sausage rolls and blended non-alcoholic pina coladas.
All Armidale Roffs are well and we are really looking forward to Lismore and lots of good reasons to celebrate!!! I will bring some strawberry daquiri mix to share.
See you soon
Love Jenny

Happy Birthday Amy. You look all grow'd up!! I hope you're not so grow'd up that you can't have silly fun with your cousin Jake and his silly kids.. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
If by "Amy turned 13" you meant "Amy turned 21" I might believe you - you certainly have grown up since we last saw you Amy, happy birthday!

I'm about to turn 60, Amy, and I'm going to follow your example and have a party with my 42 closest girlfriends. You'll probably be able to read about it in the papers. Happy birthday and best of luck for what will obviously be a stellar career. I wish I'd been there to see it all but we'll catch up soon in Lismore. Lots of love from the Melbourne Roffs.
