Here is the beautiful cat cake I got from the boys for my Birthday....
As a family with two little boys we said good bye to our family, friends, playgroup, beaches, playgrounds and everything we held dear for a two year adventure. Destination: Denver, Colorado. What did we know about it? John Denver liked it around here didnt he?
Toddlers embrace a new world with the wonder, enthusiasm and passion. Charlie said to me the other day. "Mum I just learnt about fall, its like autumn... but do pumpkins fall from the sky in fall?" I want to look at this adventure with the same sense of fun. So this is my attempt....

Charlie's 4th Party
Well here is the big 4 year old all ready to take on the world..and his first proper kids only party!
Food: A vague animal theme. Owl cheese biscuits, hedgehog watermelon, cat pizzas, duck fairy bread
and a volcano cake!
Games: We painted pet rocks, played a hyped up pass the parcel (first time for many), did a picture only dino egg treasure hunt, and a calmer pin the bug on the flower game.
We ended with a pinata that our squirrel had been trying to get in to all afternoon much to Mums delight.
Favourite quotes from party:
"Our house is WAY bigger"
"Can we come to Charlie's next party"
"My favourite animals are wizards (lizards)"
"Where did you learn to do all this Ms Bianca"

An overheard conversation:

Charlie: " No thanks Tommy"
Tom: "They tasty and make your poo not feel ouchy"
Clever boy.
