Rachel's birthday party

A couple of weeks ago we had Rachel's 2nd Birthday party. I thought I should blog about this with some pictures. We had a butterfly theme. So we had Butterfly dress ups, decorated butterfly biscuits and of course a butterfly cake.

The photos in this collage were taken just before people arrived and our kids were all dressed up as butterflies. In the ones with them on the mat they are pretending to be sleeping. Andrew was snoring loudly because butterflies snore.

Here is Rachel opening her presents. She knew what she should be doing.

Andrew and I had made some butterfly biscuits so all the kids(except Joe) helped to decorated the biscuits. An activity I would do again at another party as it worked.

Of course we had to have a butterfly cake. Mummy is pleased with her effort. Andrew decided we needed to use pink icing.

Here is Rachel trying to blow out her candle. I like the expression on her face. I am holding her arms to stop her putting them in the flame.
