Our afternoon was spent at the Toowoomba Eistedfodd. This weekend has been spent listening to beautiful primary school choirs. My daughter took part in 5 sections (I think) - it becomes a bit of a blur.
Tomorrow morning Alexandra is doing her very first solo performances. She will take part in two sections. Tomorrow evening Mitchell will be part of the High School sections.
It is just beautiful to watch the children take part in such a great competition. It doesn't matter if they win or not, just to sing on the stage of our beautiful Empire Theatre will be etched into their memories forever.
My sweet Mitchell cooked dinner for us tonight. We had lovely steak with Jacket Potatoes and corn and greens from our garden. He cooked the steak and the corn on the barbeque - it was delicious.
He had spent the afternoon at home making this yummy dessert too. It is a Strawberry, Chocolate, Cream and Hazelnut Meringue. It was just scrumptious!! Thank you my special boy.
Mitchell is a Jamie Oliver fan and found this in one of his cook books.
A happy Mothers' Day to everyone.

Oh Leisa - what a blessing Mitchell is!! And tea in a teacup always tastes better when it's brought to you in bed. It was such a beautiful day, we went on a picnic. All the best to Alexandra for her solo, love Barb
That sure sounds like a wonderful Mothers’ Day!!

Eisteddfod time was always a big event in my house. The children competed and we spent days in raptures watching them. Ahh...it all goes by too quickly. Thanks for the memories. Marilyn xoxo
This is the first year in ummm 14 I think that I have not had any-one in the Eisteddfod.
Mitchell looks like a great cook, glad you had a wonderful day.
