Mad Hatters Party Success & Kids New Bathroom

Phew what a day!  It has been huge, but soooo much fun! I am totally exhausted - perhaps has something to do with staying up till midnight making a Topsy Turvey Cake!  What was I thinking?  Anyway here are a few pics of our big day!
The Birthday Girl - in her version of Alice in Wonderland "why can't she wear pink Mum?"
Goddies Table - I totally forgot to take a picture once it was fully laiden with all things so not good for you!
The Mad Hatter AKA Kevin
Isabell Playing Pin the Tail on the March Hare - check out the details later this week on the games we played!


Craziness as everyone sits down to lunch at the Red Table!
Decorative Ribbons Hanging in "our" tree.

The Birthday Girl and Her Topsy Turvy Cake - don't you love the fringe in her face - she is growing it out!

The kids loved all the games we played, even those who were "too cool" to play the first few games, were joining in on the fun once they say everyone else having a great time!

Thanks to my DH - Kevin for all his paitence and help and to our wonderful neighbours Rachel and Natalie for their help and moral support!!!

Now quickly I mentioned a while back that I was very inspired my a kids bathroom makeover I had seen here.  Because we are renters - we are VERY limited in what we can do to make this "house" feel like our "home - you all know what the difference is!  Anyways I did this:






 

It was pretty easy - some plain pine frames from Ikea, a test tube of paint, a few printed out words and voila ...

 

So far the kids have kept this room clean and tidy and I have not been nagging about hair and teeth anywhere near as often!


Have a great weekend!

Cheers

Nic
