Seamus rockin' the skate park, Clitheroe (Sept 2011)

It's that birthday time of year, again!

This year Seamus and I are planning a spectacular birthday bananza to celebrate him turning 6. It's turning out to be great fun and truly setting my creativity on fire!

First decide a theme:

Seamus' Scooby Doo!

Second make the invites:

Third make things, in age old (well, ok, 3 year) tradition, make massive larger-then-life Scooby birthday banner:

Next: plan to organise party games, bake a bundle of cakes, and then dress the village hall with an assortment of eery wall hangings and generally moody monster nasties! We can't wait for the birthday fun to begin. Let's hope most of the 40 children invited turn up!

The hand that feeds me.

Or tries to at least.

Well done @gazcook. You are lovely.
