Happy Mother's Day to my Mom, weren't we beautiful? Still are!
Above - Léna bday party in Nice one week ago today. We got sprinkled on a few times, but other than that, a fun day & picnic!
Léna has on a t-shirt that says "Birthday Girl". It had been Estelle's and I ran across it just in time!
Basile in orange.
Starting the first game - a Scavenger hunt for things you'd find in a park.
Thank you Fransiska for documenting this event with my camera! If Thomas and I look weary, we had been up l-a-t-e cooking and baking after a l-o-n-g day at the school flea market.
All those kids packs from our flights every summer on Air Transat came in handy....
Here I imitate something, or someone. Who knows. Behind, the port of Nice.
Basile sees a plan.
Estelle, Maelys & Eva looking on....
Time for singing & candles....
I had colored the cupcake batter blue (which is unusual in France, they never use food coloring) so one child asked me "Why are you making us eat Playdough?"
Léna and Estelle enjoy their blue cupcakes! Léna's was decorated with a "speculos" cookie and lilac frosting.
Estelle wants to say: "I took a cupcake with pink frosting and blue inside and the Oreo on it. And a fairy decoration. It was good."
A limbo game was fun too!
Hours later, one little four-year-old was fast asleep reading her new book about being 4. It was a great day with good friends and lots of fun for Léna - she received some fun educational gifts too. And Estelle went on to a 2nd bday party in another park that afternoon before this photo was taken!
