An early birthday, with a Mickey theme
My son is a huge fan of “M-I-C-K-E-Y…..M-O-U-S-E!” – are you singing along?
We needed to have an early party so we could have fully parental attendance, and the date was set for my son’s 5th birthday party.
So I made some Mickey invites, we had a Mickey Mouse birthday cake, and (due to a technical oversight on my part) he did NOT wear his Mickey t-shirt, but wore his Donald Duck top to the party.
He invited 9 friends, 7 from his class, a friend from another class and a friend from our church. As he has only been in school for 3 weeks, it was a great chance to meet some of the kids and their parents.
We chose to book a new local soft-play place for the party – a great decision. I will pretend that this blurry action shot was deliberate, and I was being artistic!

Everyone happy, all played out, loved the food, and in no time at all the parents were collecting them.
A success all round!
After the party there was a bit of a frenzy as presents were opened.

Batteries needed to be inserted and small parts assembled – not necessarily by my son!
That is my party round up for now – only 2 more kids in our house to have birthdays before Christmas.
Hope your weekend has been a success too – what have YOU been up to?
