Birthday weekend.

This weekend we celebrated Emily's birthday with a little tea party for a few of her friends from  her class. It was lovely, really special to have such lovely girls come. The theme was fairies and before everyone arrived we gave Emily her main birthday present early - well it just would not have been the same with out it! A tinkerbell outfit! Oh my how she has loved it! She has worn it non stop all weekend along with her tinkerbell slippers that her mummy made! She just loves it. So pleased. (also pleased about the price!, i got it at an NCT sale in October for £3.50 - looks brand new to me! The funniest part being that i did not realise until she put it on, it has flashing lights in the front, very gentle twinkling pixie dust light, that she also loves!!)

Anyway, back to the party. We decorated fairy wands and pixie dust glass bottles, as well as played pass the parcel and musical bumps. The girls were so excited to be in each others company and were happy playing some of the time. even ending up colouring in on the floor by the time it was home time.

Another bargain - little glass bottles with a cork topper, £1 for 3 !! - pixi dust bottles!

The cake was a little bit of a cop out for me, a number 5 in cupcakes, but oh was my life easier!

The rest of the weekend was spent at home with family and friends coming to visit and stay for tea. Lots of present opening, all of which were lovely! Emily's actual birthday is not until Tuesday but seeing as this will be the first year she will be at school, the actual day will be low key. Obviously it is the last week of term, christmas madness, nativity play on her birthday also and daddy is working in the evening so it will be just us girls for tea. - When i said to her this morning what would you like for tea on your birthday, you can choose, would you like spaghetti or pizza.... i would like cucumber, and ham and jacket potato!!! ha!!!
