Happy Birthday to my Daughter!

A few little surprise presents sent down to open today (as she couldn't come up this year as is playing Polo both today and tomorrow and hosting a birthday BBQ today for 50 people at the Polo Club) having had her main present, a new TV, delivered a week or so ago.

New prototype shoes from Vintage Sasha for my girls to try on.

It all began when we were having difficulty trying to find some suitable shoes to go with this delightful pinafore outfit from Vintage Sasha. The next minute these super little shoes arrived on the doorstep. Thank you very much Auntie Sarah, we love them.

Here is another pair in creamy/yellowy/mustard and the dark brown photos will be following soon.

11. Summer clothes.

1966 Developemental NP (with eyes painted by a Manchester University art student) wearing a dungaree outfit by Jackie Hyatt and JJ flip flops.

My girls like to keep fit by taking exercise, more than can be said of their mother!

My 1968 no fringe, bobbed hair Dungaree girl warming up before her aerobic session.

Good footwork and controlled balance using the areobic step apparatus.

Good strong and well controlled press-ups.

A front view of the press-up hold. Good height held.

A good finishing pose.

1960s pale skinned slate eyed Gotz girl starting her gymnastic floor work.

Good backward roll.

Try to keep both legs at 90% on your head stand.

Next up onto the bar.

A very neat and tidy forward bar roll.

....though a rather untidy looking exit from it.

A good straight controlled stand finish to your bar work. Well done.

This 1990s Gotz customised By Kelly pale skinned Stella so suits being a ballerina. Here she is is in Ballet position 1 (well almost as she could quite get her fingers to meet.)

Struggling to remember these next two positions as it is now a good couple of decades since my daughter took ballet and tap dancing lessons.... and an 'unmentionable' time since I did!

A new 'already wigged' little tot arrives.

This cute early Trendon baby arrives here from Shelly's website and after being changed into a little boys romper (more suited to his gender) he quickly makes friends with Steifie, the golden Spaniel.

Obviously love at first sight!

I need to be picked up and hugged now please.
