Here's the big day! Shar and I have been cooking and preparing all week for this one. Almost everyone we invited showed up to the beach to enjoy birthday cake, cup cakes, fish shaped biscuits, cobbs and dip, lollies, juice and games. (And one friend came afterwards to our house). We even had some surprise attendances by Damian and Joshua, and Pop and Nana stayed longer than we expected too.
The wind was quite brisk at Front Beach where we all met, so the fishing game that I had planned didn't go according to plan. That didn't stop the kids from having a fun time.
Happy birthday to you
Arki's bouncy ball got taken by a seagull and dropped out to sea. (That poor girl has no luck with bouncy balls). Her last one was thrown out a window and mown over. A lot of trading took place between the children as they vied for an object of suitable appeal.
We got some silkworms for Zemiel to look after, and he got loads of things to play with, read and colour in. Zemiel loved his cake, all he could say was "fish!" again, and again.
Fish! Fish!
Zemi's cake
I think that the adult party goers were also suitably impressed. Zemiel now has a train track set, several engines, a number of carriages, not to mention a helicopter (with which Azzi is quite taken), a number of story books and a mat with streets for cars to drive on. In fact, so many things that it is quite impossible for him to keep them all away from Azzi all the time.
