21st Party

We went to Niece's 21st birthday party this weekend. We weren't planning to go because of sickness and Lara but that really upset the young lady. Luckily at the end we got better and manipulated Lara's sleep a little so we were all able to attend. The party had a mask theme and it was nice to see some really stunning masks. Mother-in-law bought and painted our masks and saved the day again! Lara wasn't keen on the masks but tried them on for us...





The party room (a private function room in a restaurant) was nicely decorated with lots of objectives that interested Lara, especially those colourful balloons. Even with lots of exciting people around (cousins, uncles/aunties and Grandparents) and exciting things to do (steel stairs to climb and fresh air outside), Lara was ready to go at 9 pm. I had to gobble my main meal (portion was huge so I was full before I finished it) so we could leave. We heard the ice cream birthday cake was nice!

I can't believe the little girl I met 10 years ago is 21!! She is beautiful, intelligent and very capable. We are looking forward to seeing many great things from her. One thing Hubbie got from the party was to buy a video camera so he will also have lots of interesting (or embarrassing) clips to show at Lara's 21st birthday!
