(or the story of two parties and a car accident)
Wednesday was Miss K’s first birthday. We decided to have 2 parties for her – one with us and the grandparents and another for family and a couple of friends.
The first party was on the Wednesday, which turned out to be a rather eventful day. We went to town to pick up the last of the presents, decorations for Saturday and a few other bits and pieces. Pretty uneventful. Coming home and we get sideswiped by a truck, pushing us into the gutter. Fortunately it was not on the side Miss K was on, we were all fine and it was minor damage to the car (we’ll b getting a door replaced).
Onto more happier things – the first party.
The menu included prawn cocktails and garlic bread, then roast lamb and roast veggies, then creme caramel and caramel oranges for dessert. We had drinks & cake after that.
Butter cake with pink butter cream frosting (yummo) Want the recipe? You can grab it at Taste.com.au
Miss K was spoiled with lots of new clothes and some new toys.
Fast forward to Saturday… and it was pouring with rain… all day! But we had a great day. We got to Mum & Dad’s bout 10ish and set up all the decorations & finished cooking food.
How good does that spread of food look? I can tell you it was yummo and there was hardly any left.
Miss K got even more spoiled with heaps of clothes and some new toys.
Chocolate cake with chocolate or vanilla cupcakes (both with butter cream frosting)
We got home bout 7ish and Miss K flaked it about 8. Poor little mite was stuffed but had a great day. Now to start planning for her 2nd birthday (not really LOL)
