Mum and Dad really came up with the goods this year with a trampoline...a rather large trampoline at that. I loved it, really loved it and have been for a bounce every day since i've had it. I must of course thank Andy and Uncle Alan for their help building the thing on monday night, in the dark and indeed cold. Top work chaps, you're welcome to come round for a bounce anytime you like. Then of course there was my party, I was sooooo excited about this it was frankly ridiculous. Weeks of meticulous planning had been done to make sure the event ran like clockwork (yeah right). Nine of my friends arrived and it was all on the trampoline...TOGETHER:
Amazingly no one got hurt which was a relief for Auntie Christine who was on duty while Mum and Dad 'busied' themselves indoors.
Speaking of indoors we soon had the Prodigy blaring out:
Before we settled down for a few traditional party games including pass the parcel (with a small packet of sweets inbetween each layer of paper to keep everyone happy):
We also had pin the spider on the web which I thought i'd won easily until Alastair beat me:
Then of course it was food time, I had put my order in with the caterers for sauasage rolls, Cheese, Ham and Marmite sarnies, cocktail sausages, beef monster much and cheesey balls:
Best of all though was the party poppers. Most of my friends had never seen such things before and didn't even know how to let them off. Once they worked it out though they loved them.
Then of course there was a caterpillar cake with 6 (yes six) candles:
WhichAlastair helped me to blow out:
It was such a great party, I can't wait until next year, i've started planning already........
Thanks as well to Auntie Christine for coming along and being such a good sport (hope you enjoyed your go on the trampoline once everyone had gone home).
We also saw Uncle Den, Auntie Gail and then Uncle Slim, all bearing gifts of course, thanks very much!
So the next day and we spent the day with our Aunties Christine and Trish (as wel as Uncle Ian of course). We went to the park, we went to pizza hut, we did some drawing we watched some telly and generally had a lovely time. Except for my rather fragrant bottom...ahem.
It was cut short by swimming lessons for me though, great chance to show off my prowess to Auntie Christine who decide to tag along with us.
Thursday was off to Dragon club for me.....
.........and Nursery for me until Dad came to get us. He knows how to keep us kids entertained and offered us a trip to the Supermarket.
I did manage to get him to take us to Sainsbury's instead though. I also got him to shelve any plans of a dull old tea by requesting a barbecue. He'd never decline that suggestion no matter what!
We had a visit from Grandad and Anne in the aftenoon, thanks for my presents.
And thanks for my singing Princess book and the amount of laughter we had while Mum attempted to sing along.
Then on to Friday then, with the amount of easter eggs and general birthday sweet things left kicking about the house baking club was put on hold for a week so it was a good job I got my fix at Dragon club. We baked bread, it was deeeeeelicious too. Dad said it was the nicest bread roll he'd ever eaten (I let him have half, and made hime share it with Ellis).
Then it was the weekend. We went to see (great) Grandma at her new home. It had a lovely sunny garden so we went out onto the patio with her to soak up some spring sunshine and entertain all the other old dears...they lapped it up!
Then it was onto see the Law's, as usual we had a great time in the garden, had a lovely barbecue and then all ended up snuggled up on the sofa watching Britains got Talent.
As if one party wasn't enough we then headed off to the Halfords, poor old Max had a poorly tummy and Ned soon crashed out leaving me and Leo to it, we have a great time together these days.
So after the previous late night we had a lazy morning on sunday before we headed out for lunch to the Szechuan, I was a rather worried about it all week as I don't think I like Chinese food. Anyway, they had chips and prawn crackers so I was happy, I even tried the seaweed (but didn't like it).
It was for Mum's birthday really, so Laura, James, Trish, Mark, Tracey, Slim, Auntie Christine and Ian were all in attendance. They all ate loads, I decided to have a tizzy instead.........
I soon calmed down when I realised bowling was on the agenda though, I love bowling so much:
I'm even enthusiastic when I knock just a few over:
Alan and Hayley came round later in the afternoon, apparently for my birthday present but we all know they really wanted a go on the trampoline!
So after a hectic weekend we were glad when it was Monday, there was still no school so Mum was off with us in the morning, lots of cuddles then, just the job.
And a trip to the park, can't be bad!
And then it was back to scool day today, I was sort of pleased to be back and to catch up with everyone. Apparently Dylan had been on and on to his mum about how good my party was all holidays.
But most exciting of all was the boiler man coming in the afternoon, he intrigued me and i had to keep making regular visits to the kitchen to see what he was up to....
Just for me to add a really big thank you for everyone who came to see me, gave me a card or indeed a present for my birhtday, I really had a lovely time.
