Party, Party, Party!

This week-end was another bumper party one!

We had 3 parties in total, 1 that Niave went to, 1 that Abigail went to and 1 that they both went to!

On Saturday it was Kaira's 3rd birthday. The sweetest little girl with the most gorgeous red hair you've ever seen. She had a bug theme so the kids did buggy games and got buggy prizes and even ate buggy food (not real bugs!) Niave managed to make her way through 4 ladybird cupcakes!! She was so excited about this party. On Friday she told evreyone who crossed her path "It's Kaira's party tomorrow. Not MY party, not ABI'S party, not YOUR party - KAIRA'S party" (with great emphasis on the words in caps!)

They had a great time, well done to Renette and Jordan for all the effort they put in.

Here is an idea of what Niave got up to.

In the afternoon Abigail had a Teddy Bears Picnic party in Keurboom park. I didn't take any pictures, partly because I didn't take my camera and partly because I wasn't there! I took the opportunity to pop into Cavendish -on my own!!

Today it was Rachel's 3rd birthday, Niave's friend but Abigail tagged along. It was at the Adventure Animal Farm in Phillipi and when she heard there would be pony rides she wasn't going to miss out! The farm is great, very rustic and farmy (!) but they have loads of animals: chickens, ducks, bunnies, guinea pigs, pigs, porcupines, jackals, ostriches, springbok, sheep, goats, horses, blue cranes, a lynx, peacocks, turkeys and some others.

They also have a play area with quite big jungle gyms, swings and a trampoline, all in all - a lot to keep them occupied and interested. The entrance fee is not too bad, the kids were paid for so I only had to pay for myself and that was R20,00 and that includes a bucket of animal food -carrots and bunny food, the little ones looked so sweet carrying their buckets of food around. Niave insisted on throwing her carrots into the duck pond which was being "guarded" by a pair of angry-ish geese who had eggs close by.

The kids had a great time and were absolutely tired out by the time we got home. Niave just managed to make it through her supper.

Here are some pictures of the day.

Well, that was our "party" week-end. You'd think the week-ends might get less hectic from here on out - but you'd be wrong! On 1 week-end coming up Abigail has a dancing show and a camp- out 2 nights in a row!

Roll on December holidays!!
