Pirates and Princesses

The last of Harry’s 3rd birthday celebrations came at the weekend, when Harry and five of his best friends had a joint pirate and princess themed birthday party held in the village hall. We have been planning this for a while now as with 55 children invited it was quite an undertaking!


Setting up the hall took a few hours, blowing up all the balloons for the balloon drop we had at the end of the party, a craft table where the children decorated pirate hats and princess crowns,  ride on toys, face painting, tattoos, lots of yummy party food and jelly.


The amazing cakes were made by Lisa at The Travelling Teashop.
Beware of the pirates!
 The boys fantastic t-shirts were made by my lovely friend Celine at Applejuice.

A fantasic time was had by all, especially the birthday boys and girls!

I have really enjoyed Harry's birthday this year as it feels like it has been the first year that he has properly understood the event and been really excited about the build up to it. Although I am looking forward to many more birthdays to come I really want to wrap him up and preserve some or that 3 year old cuteness.

  2. The party looks spectacular. I think the effort is so much more worth it when they are old enough to understand it and be involved.
