Freya decided that for her 5th birthday she wanted to go back to Walkabout Creek to visit a pair of sleepy cod whom on a previous visit she had taken a fancy to and named 'Bert & Bob'. She also wanted to go to Hungry Jacks for dinner. I was surprised that she didn't request a trip to one of the theme parks or a party however Freya often surprises me with her ideas so that is nothing new!
On the day Freya was excited to learn that friends Tom, Josie and their mum Georgina were going to meet us at Walkabout Creek. Together we explored the Wildlife Centre, visiting Bert & Bob before heading back up to meet with Nana, Aunty Priya, Abby, Uncle Kenny & Michelle for morning tea. After morning tea Tom, Josie and Georgina headed home and the rest of us went for a little bushwalk. After all that walking a milkshake was in order when we returned!
Later that afternoon following a trip to Nana & Pop's we finally got around to having Freya's birthday cake... a dismal attempt by me at a Bert & Bob cake! Freya was most gracious and told us that 'even though it didn't look the best, it tasted wonderful'. Freya's friend Liva came over for the cake and so it was lovely that a different parts of the day she got to see her two best friends - Liva and Tom.
Finally it was time for dinner at Hungry Jacks with the birthday voucher Freya had received in the mail. Freya bought her new baby doll 'Isabelle' with her which was one of her favourite presents from the day.
