The first of many to come


After avoiding them for 4 years we caved. Turning 5 is a milestone that should be celebrated in a big way. And who wouldn't want to share this with their twin brother and 10 friends (and their respective entourages aka parents).

Yesterday we celebrated turning 5 with a birthday party at a train museum that is just up the road called Platform 1.

The party took place in an old train carriage.

:~: They played pass-the-parcel
:~: They had rides on the train, a little bit of rain wasn't going to stop them.
:~: They found the treasure and went on a hunt to find the right key to open the treasure which was train shaped chocolates
:~: They ran around the train museum
:~: They feed some farm animals
:~: They ate food
:~: They cut birthday cakes

Everyone had a blast and the boys just couldn't wait to get home and play with all their gifts.

Ewan paid the bill and we both felt it was money well spent as we walked into our clean, undestroyed house.

Thanks for using my photos. I can afford birthday cakes. But I'm not making ones like those. I'm too lazy and tired...Or is it tired and lazy?
