Karinas birthday

After many months of Karina's constant chatter about her birthday, finally the big day arrived! She was so happy being four years old and she was ecstatic at the proospect of all her friends coming to her house. Of course, from 7AM she was asking "is the party ready yet"? Sheesh - we had to go through that till 3PM! ;)

We organised rather a large party for her and her friends - 2 tables full of food and drink (one for the kids, one for the parents!), champagne, a cooler full of beer, huge cake, games, prizes, even a bouncy castle in the garden. OTT methinks!!! Still, she's worth it... everyone had a great day even though we were dying tired when everyone left and we tidied up! In the morning when I took her to gymnastics and to buy some "party shoes" it was dull, grey, foggy, raining. By mid day the sky cleared and we had a warm, sunny November day - really perfect, so everyone spent the afternoon in the garden.

Of course she got more presents than she could believe and insisted on tearing into them all as soon as they arrived. When everyone had gone home and she was getting ready for bed she was on a bit of a downer, saying how sad she was it was all finished... almost a little tearful the poor thing :(
