Liam's 8th Birthday Party - Saturday 29 October 2016 - The Camping Party

Little Dude decided he wanted a camping party. So tents were pitched in the garden for the dude and his buddies. Some buddies didn't sleep over and just attended the party and went home, and others rocked up complete with sleeping gear and declared themselves Fellow Adventurers.

Just to confirm - he wasn't cutting the cake here. He was introducing Dad to his right foot. 

Just as everybody was done singing - the wind blew his candle out. Which was fine - it saved him some energy and he managed to stay up slightly later. 

Dad always makes the best cakes. Nothing fancy - but boy are they tasty. This one lasted all of 5 minutes and there was nothing left.

Counting chocolates on the cake much? Ten it seems. But of course. it's open for debate.

Here they were all telling Glenda that Spikey is still waiting for his slice. Or maybe that was just what Spikey was thinking. But it's still a very good thought!

The fire. Just in case you wondered what exactly it is. 

Everybody had a ball - but it's fair to say the ones who slept over had the most fun.
