BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS

February is a busy birthday month here. We have three birthdays in the first week alone.

Cake is essential at every birthday party and this cake did not disappoint; rich, creamy and delicious.

Before the party we gathered at the "Play with Clay"shop in Hamilton to show our artistic skills at decorating different ceramic pieces we each selected. Here daddy helps Kate get the paint on her jewelry box.

Back home it was time to open presents and celebrate all the birthdays. Kate likes to help and open the presents for everyone. So much fun!

Owen turned discarded wrapping paper into a costume with the help of is Aunt Leanne.

Everyone wants the perfect picture of Frankie. Here Jamie who knows a few tricks for great pictures uses a white card to add some light on Frankie's face.

Oma happy to hold little Frankie. Note, they both are wearing their "Bancroft dinner jackets"

It was a wonderful time together. We are already looking forward to the next birthday gathering. I think Owen is the next one to celebrate a birthday in April. We will be there for sure.

Safe travels everyone and thanks for stopping by.
