Olivia returned from her second stay in Europe for 2012 just in time for her birthday. Margot Chandler flew across from Auckland and piles of family and friends got together to be with Liv for her 18th birthday. Great night - even a late one for Stephen and Paulie. Stephen (and Phil , Maryann, and Tim Drury) witnessed Olivia's return home (skillfully guided by a friend) at 3am. After tucking her in she slept well into her 18th year.
