Happy Birthday Callum!

Wow, what a great day!

It started with presents. In order to save Callum's blushes in years to come I'm only going to post this picture. Red pants don't stay cool for long!



Callum has been so excited about his Pirates Party for such a long time, and I'm glad to say that it was a great success. We ended up with 11 three year old's and five under threes!!

Here's Callum with Finlay and Alex.

And with Freya and Daisy
We were in the sports centre in Portslade. Vic produced an amazing amount of food for everyone.

There were lots of things to play on including a bouncy castle.

But we also had fantastic weather this afternoon so the party spilled outside. Here is Conor with Alex and Reiss.

The main man looked fantastic in all his gear.....

Vic baked an amazing cake....


.....and here's one I took earlier. (quite why I took this in the bedroom I have no idea!!)


These Pirate jelly boats were really cool.

Vic even baked individual Pirate cakes with names on. This one was for Flynn, but he did not turn up - your loss sucker!

The bouncy castle was meant for those shorter than 1.7 metres - that did not stop me and Tim joining Callum and Daisy for a quick bounce!


Callum would like to thank Nina for all her help this weekend and Fiona for her help today. He would also like to thank you all for all his wonderul presents. Bust most of all he would like to thank his Mummy for not only being the best Mummy in the world, but also for throwing the best party in the world.

I am crying as I type this, thank you Dan for those magnificent photographs. We are so sad we missed it, but the photos have helped.

What a party!! Vic, you must have worked your socks off, the cake is a triumph! Callum obviously had a ball, what a wonderful birthday celebration. Wish we had been there to see it all, instead we were looking after people from Gloucester who were pathetically grateful for running water and hot baths!

Vic, you're a marvel - a wonderful day topped off with that super cake!
How grateful we are, Dan, that you keep us instantly updated, almost as good as being there! When you were kiddies we would have to wait for weeks for any kind of pictures from over 'ome. We love this blog!!! x x x x
