Birthday Parties

Yesterday we had two more birthday parties to attend.  Our first stop was to Ali's friend, Vivienne's, party.  The party was held at a nursery that has a beautiful garden (back yard).  The kids had fun running around and playing on the swing.  After having cake and watching the presents being opened they had a puppet show as well which the kids enjoyed.  We left that party a little early to get to the next party.  The next party was for Sofia's friends', Bella and Matilda.  The party was held at my friend Laura's (Matilda's mom) house which meant swimming since they have a pool.  We lucked out with the weather and it was a hot sunny day.  The kids had great fun in the pool with their friends.  After time in the pool we had pizza followed by party games..freeze dance, egg and spoon races, and a three legged race.  Sofia and Ali were pretty tired though and Ali couldn't be bothered with the games and just stayed jumping on the trampoline.  Sofia joined in with the first round of freeze dance but then decided she had had enough and went to have her nails done in the shade.  After having cake the kids went for another round in the pool and then we headed home happily exhausted!
