It is today the 4th of the good month of May. The month in my house that is as big as Christmas! The month that all my babies (not so now!) get another year older, the dog ages 7 years and poor Benjamin gets closer to 40 *snigger snigger*
The month of May or 'birthday season' as it is known among family and friends is very exciting. Emily, Samuel and Tamsyn have their birthdays within 14 days of each other! - 1st, 6th and 14th! Jetney the dog's birthday is on the 17th. Cousin Daisy has her birthday on the 18th. Benjamin's birthday on the 31st finishes the month off nicely. In between all these dates are various cousin's and friend's birthdays which turns the month quite expensive!!! To add to the birthday chaos Aunty Amy's baby is due next week (9th of May) and my lovely new neighbour, Laura, decided to join the May club and her baby is due on the 27th of May hehe. I love it and we all have so much fun. Far too much cake is eaten, lots of balloons, lots of bunting, lots of candles, lots of presents, lots of people, lots of everything.......!
A new Lang house tradition is the introduction of the Lang 'birthday box'. I had it made last year by a vary fab gentleman, who although I discovered it late managed to get it too me on time for the first of May, start of birthday season. The children love it and Tamsyn and Samuel both said last week "it's about time you got the birthday box out"!
It was Emily of the Lang's birthday on the 1st of May and she is now 14!!!!! OMG OMG OMG OMG I feel quite old now. She had to go to school and even had a mock English exam :-( which wasn't pleasant. She did have her friends over after school though and had her favourite tacos for tea. My friend Hayley the great cake maker made her some fab cup cakes with a Mexican theme.
They are the most fabulous tiny cakes ever ever. Emily and her friends loved them.
She had stacks of money and lots of money given to her and even had flowers delivered!
You cant have a party without party rings!!!!! 'Them's the rules.....!'
