Happy Birthday to Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

"I'm not a Teenager anymore!" That was the first thought in my head the moment I woke up this morning... although AJ said that I'm a 'Tweenager' (Halfway between a Teenager and an Adult)

It still feels a little weird...

Julz however came to the rescue about 10 minutes later when she opened my curtains and exposed this...

*PIC OF WINDOWS WITH

'HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY TONI FROM JULZ'

WRITEN ON THEM*




Other then that, the fun didn't really start until tonight...

Let’s see... we had pin the tail on the ASS, Pass the parcel and then great chocolate race!
Pin the tail on the ASS was a good way to start things off; I think it just got everyone hyped up!
Pass the Parcel was more interesting... As instead of lollypops, we put in little things for each person to do... here is the list...


1. Eat a piece of raw onion (Darren Chickened out on this, so Dan and I took the part...)

2. Imitate a chicken (AJ did a very good job of this... she even laid an egg!)

3. Put on a pair of stockings and dance around the house in them (Now, THAT was interesting...)

4. Gargle the Alphabet (Big Mike Did this... Rather good actually...)


5. Drink a glass of water from the back of the glass (I got this one... I almost finished and everyone got bored, oh well...)

6. Everyone draw a picture of Toni (This had an interesting outcome... I guess my favourite one would have to be the flick one that Big Mike did of my dancing - shaking my bum as a stick person...)

7. Everyone draw a picture of your favourite car (do I need to say who finished last...?)

8. Eat a whole dry weetbix

9. Everyone write their name blindfolded


10. Wear an angel halo until the end of the game

And so on...

Then there was "The Great Chocolate Race"

This was good... For those of you that don't know the game here it is...
What you need:


Block of Chocolate, 2 Dice, Knife and Fork, Rubber gloves, Hat, Scarf and Jacket.

The rules of the game is that you role the dice, and whoever gets doubles has to put on the clothes and start cutting the chocolate up. (While everyone else continues to roll the dice) when another person rolls doubles, they have to get the clothes off the other person and put them on themselves, and cut the chocolate as fast as they can, the game continues on until all the chocolate is gone.

(It is a very good game for the Kids and Adults as we found out!)

AJ won the Great Chocolate Race Game.

(Ok, at the mo blog is not letting me put my pics up here, so I will when I find out a way around that...)

Afternoon Tea At Grandma's

Hey All,

Just thought that I might update with a new post although it isn't my birthday... yet.

Yesterday I had lunch with my older sister Lisa, and Afternoon tea with my dad's side of the family. At both occasions I got a few pressies...



Lunch:

Lisa gave me a very nice book that say's "sister thank you for..."



In the book it has a few things written, for example...

"I felt rescued that time that you... Dumped that boy that had the horrible Body Odour Problem"
(O.k. Yes, I did have a BF that had a very bad B.O. problem, However it wasn't the only reason that I dumped him... I'm not that shallow)

"I remember when we... Emptied all the shampoo bottles into the spa bath at Neil Ave, then Dad jumpped in, turned it on and was burried in bubbles!"
(I actually have a picture of this... I'll see if I can find it...)

"You have helped me accept myself as... Being a part of the family unit again"

(I kinda cried when I read this part - and a few others - as she moved away when she was 16 and when she came back home again last year, it took us all a long time to get to know her again, but it's all good now :-)

"You are original when it comes to...

1. Excuses (Hmmm?)

2. Teasing Boys (I'm not that bad am I?)

3. Pissing Dad off" (Hehe... Now that's kind of tru...)

"The most extraordinary loan you ever made to me was... Loaning me your bed for three months when the boys and I moved in last year." (that's true, but I didn't mind it - I had my sister back!)

"You have been a great teacher to me when it came to... How NOT to wear make up"



(Now why would she think that?)

"I have such great memories, but this is my favourite... When you, Julie and I danced around the kitchen to 'I'm not sick but I'm not well' by LIT" (That was really fun, considering that I cant dance! lol)

"I need to hear this... I need to hear you declare your love for poor James. Come on - You'll feel better :-) "

(O.k. Is it just me, our is every person in my family trying to hook me up with SOMEONE?)

"The peaceful times in our lives have been... When ever you were asleep"

(That's nice)

That was just a few examples of what was in the book... the rest is just too much to actually put in here...

At Grandma's...

I got a few Lovely presents, the funny thing that happened though was when I tried on a singlet that one of my aunties gave me...

Lets just say my belly piercing was revieled to my Grandma and Two aunties... their reaction was very interesting...

Hey all, due to Julz objecting to her face being on my blog I've taken action and removed it. (as, I don't keep things on here without ppls permission...)

However I will keep the foot note that I had in that post - mainly as a reminder to me...

If you really want to loose some weight or tone your self/ be more flexible... Play a good game of hackie with your mates... Just remember to stretch and do warm up exercises first, as
I didn't it yesterday when I played; and all I have to show for it is a very sore butt!
( I haven't played hackie in a very long tym)
I reallydon't recommend doing high kicks and "trying" to show off when you haven't done it in a long time - you make a real goof of yourself!

Laterz,

Tones

Spring is in the Air

Ahhhhhhhhh, the birds and the bees... the Flowers...

And the new born lambs!

I actually saw a lamb being born today (yes I know I live on a farm and might have seen it before, but... meh)

Mum ended up having to call our trusted neighbour 'Eddy' for help as she didn't want to hurt the sheep. (the second one got stuck) Eddy just went right in there! He tackled the poor sheep, got mum to sit on its head (Poor sheep!) grabbed the lamb, and yanked it out! (ouch! to say the least)

At the time I had my mate Sam over, he also got to witness the whole thing, might ask for his input on this subject...?

Ok, I've got to fly and once again finish cleaning my room (I've made and attemp on it, and so far I have found that I actually have a floor!)

Laterz...

Toni :-)

Pigs Head for Dinner...


Yes, That is right... you read it!

Last night I had pigs head for dinner!

And what an experience...

(we only ate the cheeks - meant to be the best part, though I don't think that it improves matters :-S)

Lets see, I guess I'll have to start from the beginning...

The first I had knowledge of the fact that we would be having 'pigs head' for dinner was when mum carried the frozen object out into the kitchen and thumped it onto the bench. All I could do was stare at it in horror.

The fun part came when we had to prepare it for the oven...

Mum has a fear of most farm animals (and yet we live on a farm???) alive or dead. So it was especially had for her to cut the poor piggies head in half. So, she asked for the assistance of yours truely and my younger sister Julz.

Ok, I have to admit that I was almost as freaked as mum!

It was Julz that in the end took up the knife, only to find out that (besides the nose) the head was already cut in half.

She began playing with the mouth and making it talk, to say things like
"Hey you doing?" she also made the comment that it needed a shave...

It was quite funny... now that we've cooked and eaten the thing though, we don't even know what to do with the bones!

Any Suggestions...?
