Tori's actual birthday is on Dec 17 however with it being summer break here in South Africa we started celebrating in November. A birthday month.....the advantages of having a summer birthday in South Africa...and thus all the wet-hair, swimming pics!
Celebrations (in November) started with a trip to the aqua dome with a few special friends; where they bowled and swam the day away....
