Conor's birthday today........thank god the bloody party is out of the way! Now recovering!!! After my previous droning on about party stress - everything else turned out well in the end........23 boys outside playing football for 2.5 hours and wolfing down pizza/crisps/popcorn and cake before heading back out! Fab!!! Conor had a ball (and got 4 more as presents!!!!!) and loved it all! Ruby and I hid inside (out of the freezing cold!) pretending we were sorting out the birthday lunch...but really all the hard work had been done........got up at 7.30 to cook pizzas and make sarnies (and amazingly my pizzas stayed relatively warm with my state-of-the-art insulating bag i got when i picked my shopping up last week to put my frozen stuff in!
Anyway - here are pics to prove it! and dads joined in to and got rewarded with some beer for their effort!!!! Conor got a Luxembourg footy shirt from the coach (who coaches Lux U21 team!)......looks more like a dress on him but by the time we leave it'll fit a treat (if he grows quick in a few years.....no we're not staying longer than that!!!)
PS: just look at that cake......impressive huh?? all my very own work....honest! Tastes fantastic - even if i do say so myself! my cake making skills must be getting better :-)
Look at Millie in a football shirt! Loving the cake :-)
