It's Party Time (Part 1)

Ren decided to have a joint birthday party for Kyle and Savannah. Dad agreed. No choice really. "Yes Dear...."

A date was chosen, a theme was brilliantly invented, the entertainment was planned, food and drinks were carefully analysed and clueless people were roped in. By clueless, I mean people who nodded "Yes, sure we'll help you" with absolutely no idea of what they were getting themselves into.

I'm talking about Lorraine, our fairy Godmother and the lovely relatives, Jo and Pat, who flew in from Perth on their way to New Zealand. (I'm sure they'll rethink the stop over strategy in the future.)

And oh yes, of course, me, Dad, who generally has an optimistic view of things, and then finds out the truth as unruly events pan out.

No choice really - "Yes, Rene" we all chorused.

Ah, yes, even the weather was carefully planned....

And when we told Prince Kyle and Princess Savannah what the great day was about, and what theme we thought would suit them, a dreamy look came over their faces.....
