Tea Party

Oh my goodness...this is my 300th post on this blog. WOW!
I know I've been absent for a while but there is A LOT going on which in time will make it to the blog but not right now. There are changes afoot....exciting ones though.

Instead here are some photos from my daughters 7th birthday tea party on Saturday. It is SO much fun setting up a little girls birthday party. The last few weeks I've been collecting bottles, making paper decorations, stealing ideas via Pinterest and scouring for pretty girly things to add to the table. Then I got busy making mini cakes, cupcakes and layer cake, marble cake. We were caked out!!
I was really pleased with how it all came out, but when Katie came out to look at the table she teared up and said "I am SO happy!". So that made me pretty proud.
Five little girls dressed in their best dresses drinking "tea" (actually just raspberry fizzy drink and orange juice), eating cake and cucumber sandwiches and decorating cupcakes was actually a really relaxed, fun and easy birthday celebration. And so civilised...until Johnny came crashing through! Haha!







Cupcake decorating...


The finished cupcakes...aren't they fantastic?!





My sweet birthday girl...
