Charlotte's 1st Birthday 2007

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY CHARLOTTE

What a wonderful day - with special friends and family.......the most important people in our lives joined us to help celebrate a major milestone - CHARLOTTE'S 1ST BIRTHDAY.

We had a great day with terrific weather. We held the party in Buffalo Creek Reserve, East Lane Cove (Pitt Water Rd). It is a great park set up for kids with an large shelted playground, safe bike track and covered picnic shelters. We set up a shelter for the day with decorations (that Lise and Nicole made) and everyone gathered around it.

I had made a birthday cake (butterfly) - that was the most funniest thing. Mum and I cooked it the night before then got up super early on the day to decorate. I have never laughed so much in a long time. The cake sunk during the baking stage and we concluded that the butterfly was more like road kill that we scraped off our car windscreen - but it tasted good and didn't work out too bad on the day (after hiding the bad bits with heaps of icing). We blew out the candles, and sang Happy Birthday. The family played cricket, we ate and drank and relaxed.

Charlotte received lots of wonderful gifts and had a great day playing with friends and family.

Enjoy the pictures.
