4 Ra Old Birthday!

27 January 2010, 11:30

Mermaid theme. Treasure Hunt. Chaos. Really. Chaos. The little people invite list started small, about 10 and escalated to about 16. Stupid me assumed that given it was Australia Day Long Weekend, surely people would go away and wouldn’t be able to attend. WRONG. 16 of Scout’s nearest and dearest. Plus Siblings. Plus Parents. Plus Ring-ins. We are so going to Fairyfields next year.

Rather proud of the cake. It wasn’t quite what I’d conceived but I’m sure the kids couldn’t have given a shit. Alas, the beautiful SnowGlobe which stood atop the cake got promptly broken post-party by an accidental 4 ra old, which lead to a cacaphony of tears. Alot of them Scout’s. Mostly mine.

Had to tuck into the champers (“Had to?” Why Yes! There was a hosting obligation to both provide and quaff aforementioned bubbles!) around 12pm and the mums were more than happy to share the bubbly love. Only a glass. Or two. I swear. The day was not, after all, about me.
