Oh, what a full-on week we had! Last Tuesday was Mr H’s birthday, so we all went out for a curry in the evening to celebrate. Thursday and Friday were spent preparing for E’s birthday party on Saturday. We’d booked a Go-Kart party for him and his friends, and it went down a treat. They all looked very handsome in their overalls, and it was so much fun watching them all whizz around the track.

M was just about tall enough to join as you had to be a minimum of 1.2 metres in height. He had a slight problem with his first cart as the seat kept sliding back so he couldn’t push the accelerator down enough, but after changing to a different kart on his second go, he was off and did some spectacular overtaking too.

The Tank cake I made was also a success, and pretty much all of them had second helpings. After the party, we went home to prepare for round two – our annual Eurovision get-together.

We moved our TV into the boy’s room for the night so they could watch movies and play games upstairs while the adults watched Eurovision. It was lots of fun, but I am pleased the madness is all over for another year, and I can rest.

I’m sharing weekly photos of the boys to celebrate their childhood and linking up to the Living Arrows linky
