Archie's 2nd Birthday

I am backtracking a little now, back to the 8th of Jan when we celebrated Archie's 2nd Birthday. It was a great day for a small gathering and we managed to have a ball outside, with the kids in their swimmers zipping down the slide!
Last year was a little full on, so this year we decided to keep to immediate family, plus Aunty Kath and Uncle James, Andy and John and Archie's girlfriend, Ava :)
With the cake finally finished, the Mickey Mouse theme was in full swing and Archie was grinning from ear to ear with his Mickey ears on all day!
He absolutely adores his grandparents and he is so lucky to spend a lot of time with them, so much so that he calls Poppy John 'Johnny!' oh dear...
Archie was surrounded by his cousins (4 girls), Ava and the rest of the family all day and he just loved every minute of it! Here are a few pics from the day :)

Archie started off the day with a few gifts, we tried to keep it low key and snuck a few unopened xmas gifts in there!

                                          The Mickey ears are on early in the day!
                               My new couch from Nanna and Poppy John, just loooove it!

                                          Baby Zoe getting in on the Mickey action!

                                           My Mickey Mouse mud cake effort :)

                                                 Nanna with sweet Samara
                                                The kids catching up on the goss!
                                                          BUBBLES!!!

 Time for cake :) Archie was adorable and couldn't believe everyone was singing for him, so sweet. If only we had got it on video :(
 The day rolled into the night with the boys carrying on outside and the girls inside, talking baby names! Princess Mary had her twins on Archie's Birthday, which seemed very fitting given our special connection with Denmark.
Another party over at the Fraser's! I do love entertaining, always have and always will :)
