Happy Birthday Lucy

Lucy turned 7 on October 7, 2007. Except for the October that'd look pretty cool hehehe. We did the present thing before heading out for school and of course because her main present was a trampoline (which her big sister helped us put together the night before), we were very excited to get home and put in some more jumping time :) Does it look like she was excited at her surprise ???? Even Aimee can't help herself and she knew about it hehehe

Her birthday party was scheduled for Thursday October 11, friends from school joined us for some old-fashioned fun. As much as she begged to go to Sparky's (amusement arcade/park) mom and dad held fast and we decided to just stay home. So after mom had gone out the night before with friends (not feeling so great now), she was up early baking and getting all the food ready. We sorted out the activities ..... pass-the-parcel, musical statues, musical cushions and "The Chocolate Game", and of course there were the scooters, balls, jump ropes and the trampoline outside too. A fun morning had by all - especially André in sneaking a choice photo or two :grrr:

please note the very special beanie we had the children use for the game hehehe

oooh and then their was the cupcake decorating too -
think more decoration ended up in mouths than on cakes heheheh

and it this point I am just plain moeg, but ....at least I have the remote control hehehehe

And lest we forget - well we missed the email by a day....a special mention to "The Old Man" in the family hehehehe Happy Birthday Malcolm, hope the 10th was good, and if not.....well there's always next year :) hugs and kisses.
And Uncle Scarbie - hope your birthday was wonderful too, no fair you got to go to Mauritius though :( hope it was good !
And Wade, hope you had a wonderful day too :)
