Rainbow Butterfly party - my (current) youngest turns 4!

 

Well life has been a  bit busy lately, what with the pregnancy ticking along and a business from home, working the weekends at my other job and raising two wonderful girls!
Little Miss 3 wanted a "Rainbow Butterfly Party" for her fourth birthday - so this is what we did:

 

Butterfly and Roses centerpiece

 

 

Marshmello fondant is our new favourite!! so much cheaper than regular fondant AND it TASTES LIKE MARSHMELLO!

 

 

 

 

 

Face painting is always a hit with the kids!

 

 

Rainbow jelly oranges went down a real treat at the icecream bar

 

 

 

 

Once everyone had eaten their savoury course we moved all this sugar to a little coffee table and let the kids (and adults!) make their own ice cream sundaes. I was amazed at how grown up the kids were about it! They lined up nicely and took about the same amount of lollies a parent would have served them anyway, and they hardly spilled anything. Goes to show that kids step up to responsibility if we give them a chance.

 

 

 

 

After the usual rounds of pass the parcel (known for some reason in our house as castle castle...), a treasure hunt outside, the making of butterfly puppets with much glitter/sparkle/feathers and a face paint, our happy punters had a good jump on the trampoline and headed home.
