Last week my Grandad Jim was 80. He is a white haired hero. Literally. He is an army hero. And a hero of a grandad and a hero of a father and I know Granny Flo thinks he is a hero of a husband, considering they have been married for 60 years this year. 60 years!
Sporting his ever so cool birthday boy hat and badge.
Auntie Karen outdid her usual party planner extraordinaire ways with a delicious curry party and an abundance of desserts. It looked amazing with all of the decorations and balloons as only an auntie Karen party can. Well done!
I made the birthday cake. All I will say is a had a few run ins with a bottle of so called blue food colouring. More like liquid hell! Never buy liquid food colouring instead of the gels ones by accident. My hands resembled that of a flustered smurf. Not a good look. The cake however looked pretty decent.

Nom!
I also made some cupcakes and they looked pretty swell beside the unbelievably cool photo of Granda when he was a strapping young soldier.
My #1 cupcake fan
Maybe not!
Happy Birthday Grandad Jim. Love you loads and loads.
