Bella's Party

Today was Isabella's 6th birthday party!

She had so much fun with her friends roller skating! Most of the children hadn't been skating before so it was a new adventure. For some of the Mums and Dads it was a case of 'getting back into the grooooove'!! I had so much fun too - and we were all going so well until the very last 30 seconds of the session where Donna and I ended up on our bums! It was hilarious - I was laughing so hard I couldn't get up :)






But more importantly Isabella had a great day. She can't wait to have a few formal lessons to teach her the tricks of not only skating - but stopping!! Alex did a pretty good job too.. she is quite confident up and down our hallway but was a bit overwhelmed at the big rink. Thankfully they had a hand rail all the way around that most of the kids made use of. Isabella was skating without it by the end of the session.





I made a roller skating cake at Belle's request. A bit slap-happy but it was near 40deg and we had a party the day before so it was all I could do given the circumstances. She was happy with the result though and Alex was very fast to nick all the wheels before the others could get to them ( she LOVES marshmallows!).
