Happy 18th to Horsemad's ds. Smile

What a beautiful party MrsB. I love the book theme.

Two of my dc are on holiday with friends (Spain, UK), one is on a school trip (France) & just one at home. It feels weirdly silent. Funny how you wish for silence but when you get it..... However I am receiving text updates.

DS is 18 today!!!! He's dragged me out shopping for new clothes for him, he's never been bothered about clothes before, what's happened???! Confused Grin

That looks fab MrsB - glad you and your DD had a lovely day.

Horsemad · 06/07/2015 16:17

MrsB - gorgeous party setting, looks amazing. Smile

DS is much better thanks, he was a bit apprehensive going back, but was fine this time.

MrsBartlet · 06/07/2015 13:08

Lol muffinmonster - dd and I did say we could set ourselves up as party planners after this Grin

muffinmonster · 06/07/2015 12:54

MrsB, that looks gorgeous. You wouldn't be free to organise my next birthday party, would you? Grin

It looks fantastic, MrsB. I'm glad your DD had a lovely time - it looks like something my DD would adore too. Thanks for posting the pictures!

MrsBartlet · 06/07/2015 10:51

Thanks Hocus. Dd is off to Florence with her best friend tomorrow and they will be celebrating as her best friend got an excellent result in her IB. Good luck to anyone else getting IB results today!

HocusUcas · 06/07/2015 10:43

Mrs B
That looks fantastic. I am not surprised she thought it was perfect.

MrsBartlet · 06/07/2015 10:11

Hope your ds is ok now Horsemad.

It rained all morning yesterday and then it stopped about an hour and a half before dd's party started and it all went very well - in dd's words it was "perfect!" The highlight was when dh played his guitar and sang a song to her the wrote about the dc when they were little. There were a few tears shed!

As you asked Leeds2 here are some photos for you! Hope this works as I haven't posted photos before!

First part (again!) of diving course went well, so onto Part 2 next week.

Hope you've had sun MrsB. It's rained here - all over my washing that I pegged out this morning, grrrr!

seimum · 05/07/2015 15:04

Got back from holiday yesterday - had a lovely time in the Yorkshire Dales & not too hot.
Found that DS's prom had gone well - except that DD2 had scratched DD1's car while taking him there (standoff in narrow country lane with van & hedge). Luckily they are fine scratches and DH is getting DD2 to polish them out this afternoon.
DS's final music concert tonight.

Hope the weather is keeping fine for you Mrs B

Horsemad · 04/07/2015 22:50

Oh my poor DS Sad he did his first day of his diving course today and we went off shopping whilst he did it (all day course). When we went to collect him, they'd tried to contact us because he's been violently sick Shock unfortunately, they'd been calling his mobile which he didn't have with him and our landline - nobody at home! The poor lad had to sit it out until we turned up.
Luckily, they can fit him on another course tomorrow, so back we go...
We suspect he didn't leave enough time between eating his lunch and swimming 8 lengths Envy - puke emoticon!!! He'd had a fizzy drink too, which probably didn't help Hmm

I'm knackered now, so early(ish) night for me! Smile

Leeds2 · 02/07/2015 18:42

Hope the forecast is good for Sunday.

MrsBartlet · 02/07/2015 17:45

Of course - I'll see if I can work out how to do it after the party. Dd's birthday was in May and I wouldn't have risked doing this then but as she didn't want to celebrate it then as she was revising we thought it was a good excuse to have a summer party for her. It is raining very heavily as I type Sad

Leeds2 · 02/07/2015 16:40

Would you consider posting some photos, MrsB? It sounds like something my own DD would love, but unlikey to happen in her case as her birthday is in March!
