Book launched.

Last night's launch of my Mum's book Alzheimer's a love story was a huge success.

My Mum looked amazing, there was a huge crowd, the speeches were great, Readings sold out of the book and people had to run across the road to another bookshop to get more copies. The cookies were gobbled and my girls were really well behaved cuddling my grandfather when he got emotional.

It was really wonderful watching my Mum, who has devoted so much of her life to cheering her family on, in the spotlight.

I got to hang out with two of my three sisters, we missed you heaps Abby.

And afterwards we celebrated at a dinner where my Dad said beautiful things about my Mum.

It's been a mad 24 hours and I have yet to finish softie's head or crochet more than a few rows of her dress.

But we did manage to squeeze in a birthday party for one of Pepper's friends.

And get served cups of tea from a tray that had a milk jug cover on it. Love it, must make one soon.

I'm off now to write some lists and get baking for Indi's ninth birthday slumber party tomorrow night.

I hope you have a great one.

Oops, I almost forgot to show you the ace display Miss Doily has made for the Foxs Lane area at Dear Prudence in Ballarat.
