As I promised yesterday today you get to see if Amber got any presents at her party or not. Now it would be a very sad little 4 year old princess if she didn’t get any presents…
Fortunately she did get presents so she was soon ripping the paper off squealing with delight…
She even got a new set of fairy wings from one of her princess friends…
Some people even seemed to be following the princess theme in their wrapping paper…
I think Amber and her fellow princesses had a great party; I say princesses there were two princes there too, Ambers brother and the brother of one of the princesses, they all had a great time playing together.
It was soon time for the princesses chauffeurs (parents) to collect them and take them home.
All that was then left to do, was to leave Ambers daddy to do the tidying up of the toys at the end of the party…
So Happy Birthday Amber, thank you for a wonderful party.
I hope you have enjoyed visiting Ambers party with me, please come back tomorrow for some new photo opportunities, and feel free to visit any of the previous posts to see what else the camera may have seen.
Those of you who read my blog yesterday will know that it was my niece Ambers Birthday this week and when we went to wish her Happy Birthday, she was having a Princesses Birthday party with some of her friends.
As you know, Princesses have to look their best and Amber certainly did. Her own personal hair stylist, (her mum), had done her hair up beautifully…
There was certainly lots of smiles and laughter going on, these princesses were having a wonderful party.
What comes next after all the fun and games? Of course, the party food…
A table full of goodies for the hungry princesses and their equally hungry helpers. There was even more cake and goodies not in the photo that came out later.
The Princesses certainly liked everything that was on offer as there was lots of empty plates at the end.
To round off the food there’s one more cake to try the Birthday cake…
Come on Amber get your daddy to help blow those candles out…
Well done Amber, all out, but wait a minute what about your presents? Oh well reader you will have to come back tomorrow for more photos of that bit of the party. See you then.
It is my Niece Amber’s birthday this week and so we called around to wish her Happy Birthday.
When we arrived she was having a Princesses Birthday party with some of her friends. They were all dressed up in Princesses outfits and looked really good. The party was already underway when we got there and they had already played some energetic games so they were having a quiet time playing the memory card game as we arrived.
Although I think my camera clicking may have disturbed the concentration on the game as they all turned to look at the camera…
Concentration did quickly return to the game though…
Energetic games did resume shortly with a game of musical bumps where every child that went out got a sticker, which meant they could continue to dance and play but the organiser of the game knew who was left actually playing the game. A great idea.
Come back tomorrow for more fun from Amber’s Birthday party.
Happy Fathers Day.
Being a Dad is great! I’ve got 3 wonderful girls who mean the world to me…
so every day is Fathers day for me.
This week though I got the pleasure of spending a day out with my mum and dad at Belton House in Lincolnshire. It was a great day out…
We got to take lots of photos something my dad and I both enjoy.
On the day we were there, we spotted lots of families of geese roaming around the gardens…
They were out on the lake in large numbers as well…
I’m not sure what the fathers role is in the goose family, but, I want to say thank you for the support, encouragement, generosity and love given so freely as I’ve grown up from my dad.
I hope that in my role as a Dad I can be, for my daughters, the kind of dad they need me to be.
Happy Fathers day to all the Dads out there…
As part of Brenda’s Photo Challenge, todays blog follows the theme of playing. Now what better encapsulates playing than when children get together. In this case it was three older cousins [my daughters] with my Brother – in - laws two. Esther and Harriet help with the hoops in the back garden…
Nana tried to join in and show them how she used to do it in the good old days. [I’m going to get it for that one].
We were also treated to a carefully made cup of tea…
Whilst my eldest Keziah tried to escape by climbing a tree…
It’s fun to play, why not join in visit Brenda’s Photo Challenge for more details and to see the other entrants.
Thanks for playing.
Well you might be in for a bit of silliness this week in our header challenge as it’s Tom-fishing guy’s choice and he has gone with “That’s Silly!” So what do you want to see that's silly?
How about one of the other headbangers imac playing silly at a day out to Belton House?
If that’s not silly enough for you how about some strange faced deer in the woods?
Or how about a cute (well maybe not so cute!) bunny rabbit?
Have I been silly enough for you this week?
For this weeks header I’ve stayed with the same silly theme of faces through cut out pictures and gone for a family of beautiful but Silly Sunflowers. I hope you’ve enjoyed being silly with me and the photos have brought a smile to your face.
Remember to see what silly delights the other headbangers have thought up for their headers this week, just follow their links at the top of my right hand menu bar.
Its good to have friends, and this weeks theme as chosen by my friend imac is “Friends”.

I said midweek that I would try and post up some photo’s from my nephews 1st Birthday celebrations last Sunday. Well I have eventually got around to it. Sorry for the delay everyone.
Well here is the amazing Toby, bright as a button and racing around the dining room using his push along truck for support. Go Toby.
As you can see Vicky (Toby’s mum) put on a great spread of food for everyone. Thanks Vicky it was yummy.
Looking at this next photo Toby thought so too…
As you may remember from Wednesdays post Toby had a great Birthday cake and was ably helped to blow out his single candle on it…
So we’ve had the food and birthday cake, what about the presents?
Well he had plenty of those too. His parents look just as exited as he was, to get a wind up duck for the bath!
The intense concentration as he opens his presents.
Here mum Vicky imitates Sponge Bob perfectly.
Toby really liked this one, so much so, he stopped to give it a kiss as parents, Sister, Grand parents and Aunty cheer him on. Well come on cheer him on then!
Here Toby proves he has been trained well, money money, mine mine!
Toby being the kind young man he is didn’t want his sister Amber to feel left out, so he made sure she got a present too.
What is it Amber?
Its a beautiful new pink cycle helmet!
Her dad Martin tried it on for size first, but no it doesn't suit you Martin give it back…
That's better, it fits Amber perfectly and suits her much better too.
She absolutely loved it and went straight out to try it out…
Toby meanwhile was just lapping up all the attention he was getting.
Hi Nana.
&
Daddy's Boy…
Well it’s been a great day Toby. Thank you for the invite to your 1st Birthday party. We enjoyed it I hope you did too.
Since the party poor Toby and now his sister Amber have got Chicken-pox. We send our love to you both, get better soon. Love to the parents too who have to nurse the two poorly children. Take care everybody.
