Thank you all of you for your lovely comments and kind wishes. I have passed all your birthday love on to Jack, who did one of his trademark smiles and said "Cool!" Things are still in chaos here with unpacking, laundry and a cake to bake before a second party at home tomorrow. So this is just a brief post to share some photos of the first party on the beach and a teasing hint of what I have been crafting over the weekend before I disappear into the ether again for a couple of days.
The cake - shop bought but decorated with candles and sparklers.
The birthday boy gets to cut his own piece!
I'll show you the special something this turned into when I come back - enjoy your week.
