Recently, four generations of the Laurence family got together to celebrate Otis' birthday.

(one generation was behind the camera)

In the weeks leading up to the festival Otis had been talking about candles, and the singing of songs etc, and we had been practicing this ritual almost daily. But when it came to the actual event the pressure overwhelmed, (or perhaps it was our singing?) and in the end I had to step in to do the honours. Eating the chocolate cars on top of the cake restored Otis' spirits.

We were all very happy to see our Sydney family, none more than Otis who scored some fantastic Tonka trucks which now spend their days trundling up and down, in and out of the house.

Stayed tuned for Part 2,
