And of course a party.............

As always the family came around to celebrate - Daniel had order McRobsons (homemade version of McDonalds!) for tea. So that is what we had.

He was of course spoiled with presents too - there was much fun and hilarity to be had over punch balloons (balloons with a elastic band that you hold and hit with your hand)

Uncle Gruff helped to make the forklift truck out of Meccano from Nana and Gegen.

The Cake - Daniel ordered a space rocket!

A HUGE box of lego (which we are about to put together) and a meccano set which convieniently comes in its own carry case.

The cake - we had to go to plan B. I decided to make it of egg and dairy free and Daniel had decided he would like marble cake - although the egg and dairy free marble cake tastes delish it turned out kind of flat and crumbly and not space rocket ship friendly. Plan B resulted in a trip to the supermarket and a rather large amount of lolly cake!

The cake was also supposed to be red and blue but after putting all the red food colouring we could find it it was still a nice magenta pink - so the cake became green and blue!
