Some days I do hang around at the house in my old maternity leggings and Eddi's sweater. But then if I have to head over somewhere I chic it up sixties style with a big fluffy 'do and lots of eyeliner.
We had Dag's first birthday party a few weeks after the acutal day on a sunny afternoon. And we managed to get all the painting done just in time! We always think of keeping the kids' birthdays sort of low key with not too many people but we have large families and I always go bazookas with the amount of cakes. And so it was this time, with four cakes and more than thirty people...
Eddi had an antique set of test tubes just "lying around" on a shelf collecting dust and random stuff on it. I put it on the window sill and turned it into a vase for summer flowers instead.
