Donna's Fifth Birthday

Donna had a party that I think lasted about a week!
It all started 2 days before Donna’s birthday with a movie and pies with Warren and Kate. They supplied the movie, the stunning "Tangled", hand delivered personally by Mr Muir all the way from the States.  Donna wanted a Hamster cake for her party, so I had to practice making it. Kate and Warren very kindly agreed to help sample it too.  The first Hamster didn’t look so good, but it was so full of chocolate that it tasted fine! (A chocolate cake, with white chocolate icing and a coconut and flake mix pressed into the icing for the “fur”…) I very stupidly didn’t get any pics of that evening-sorry!

Next was Don’s actual birthday.  Donna has been wanting to go to the Snow Park for a long time-so this was the day. Granma and Grandpa Zoffie were here, so they got lugged into the snow-not that they seemed to mind at all! Hannah and I patiently waited and watched them like real tourists through the window…  We then all had a great lunch and hot chocolate with Uncle Buck at St Moritz (as you do after a morning skiing-even if it is in the desert!). 




That evening Donna had her wish of Lasagna and Ice Cream for supper, followed by pink cup cakes, lots of laughs and funny photos.


It all started just nice and easy...

And then it all went crazy...

It got worse...
And thankfully back to "normal" again



The Yongs and Neals joined us for a Pool Party that next Thursday.  The Hamster looked better this time, but was not as loaded with chocolate, but at least her ears stayed on!   

Special friends


It was a spoil-I know, but Donna is a special girl and birthdays only come once a year-thankfully!
