Elliot said on her birthday (which was on Monday): 'Tell me mamma, how come there are no kids here???'
Well, finally...the day we have been waiting for was here! Elliot and Agnes' 4th birthday party happened yesterday. And a big success it was! Lots of cake, lots of kids and lots of fun!
The day before we made all the cakes. Two birthday cakes for the two birthday princesses, cupcakes and lots of other goodies.

We made 'fairy bread' - loff med smoer og stroe paa - white bread with butter and hundreds and thousands. Of course cut out in number 4's!

Each year the girls get to choose which birthday cake they want, and this year they chose a princess and a princess castle. If you look closely, you can see some little finger marks in the icing.... Just a little taste....mmmmm. Both birthday cakes were dark chocolate mud cakes! Yum!

All the girls are very much fascinated by the fairytale 'Tangled' about princess Rapunzel with the long hair. For the party we had arranged a treasure hunt where we were looking for Rapunzel in the tower. There were stations we had to complete along the way.
We are going on a treasure hunt
to find Rapunzel in the tower
first we work through stations
to give us superpower
Ok, so the rhyming isn't the best, hahahaha, but it made the mystery we needed to surround our treasure hunt:)
Our station 1 was crowns and wands.
Little princes and princesses
must have wands and crowns
here is glitter, glue and jewels
to be stuck around
 |
| At the crafts table making beautiful crowns... |
 |
| ...lots of glitter and jewels... |
 |
| ...perfect crowns! |
Station two is freezing cold
grab the hammer and take hold
smash the ice and see what you find
gumball machines could be in mind
 |
| We had frozen two gum ball machines in a bucket of water, and the kids had to smash the ice open |
Station 3 was silly-string in spray cans
Now it's time to b e a little clown
hop around and spray each other down
silly string is fun
spray all colours in the sun
Then the kids were off on a fishing adventure. Gregg had made rods out of sticks, and we had prizes in a little 'pond' that they could fish for. At the end of the fishing rods we had attached string with a paper-clip bent open for 'hooks'. And on the prices we had taped paper-clips for something to grab a hold of.
Use your rod to catch a gift
today there is no real fish
take turns and see what bites
 |
| Very excited as they found the fishing station...what is under there? |
 |
| Everyone fishing away |
 |
| Milla is enjoying the treasure hunt |
Now, where is Rapunzel in the tower....??? Whilst we were all looking for clues, pappa and Samba were getting ready in the 'tower' of the cubby house.
 |
| Time to get the wig on.... |
 |
| Little Bella is very excited about Rapunzel! |
 |
| ...lots of treats, but the wig is on... |
 |
| Even flashing a beautiful smile! |
The kids have solved the clues and are heading to the tower to free Rapunzel...
...we found Rapunzel!!! Bwahahahaha, everyone got a good laugh!!! The kids loved our Rapunzel!
At last they followed a special string.....round and round the garden....up and down....and around a corner.... FOUND THE TREASURE!!! Lots of goodies!
 |
| Mmmmm, lots of goodies! |
 |
| Mamma trying on Milla's beautiful crown and wand |
Time for cake now! Lots of candles to blow out!! 4 for Agnes and 4 for Elliot...
