A French Birthday Party
My darling Stella had her seventh
birthday while I was in France...
Time to party and eat cake!!!
A special cake as you can see,
made according to instructions
from the very talented
Mise
of Pretty Far West blog.
Please visit Mise on her special
'doll cake link' here and
here for the layout instructions...
you will love reading Mise's blog
she has a wicked sense of humour!
Sweet Jessie was very keen to
get her fat little fingers into
the cake too!!!
I love pressies
and of course with the Kiwi connection
we had games like 'pass the parcel'
(new to french kids - they loved it)!
Roxy wanted to join in
'musical cushions' too!
a quick drink and......
a handful of these
and back to the fun!
Thank you Mise
for your wonderful cake idea -
it was a huge hit in France!!

I'm feeling great again!!
Love you!
Be kind to one another
warm hugs

Dearest Shane,
ReplyDeleteCertainly these photos will bring the memories back in a way that you miss them even more so... It is tough for letting go! But you did bring some lovely Kiwi culture over to your sweet grandchildren. The cake looks like something very special indeed.
Hugs to you,
Mariette
That's a great cake for a little girl (well, it's a great cake for a big girl too!).
ReplyDeleteThat is one cute cake. We always play pass the parcel at baby showers but I have a few friends who would get a bit out of hand with the whole thing. Glad to hear the kids had a good time. Hope you are having a lovely weekend. Tammy
ReplyDeleteLove the cake and confections in their girly colors! I never heard of pass the parcel-looks like everyone had a great time.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun party - love that you taught the French girls some new games. Personally I always loved 'pass the parcel'. Beautiful cake and the children are adorable. So happy you were there to share a very special Birthday Shane.
