Under the sea - the party

Ready for the big party?
Get your diving gear!



And baking supplies, too. No party without a cake.



No party without THE cake.



And no Cordes party without cupcakes, too.



And so we're sailing away...



... to find lovely (edible) treasures.



Party on!



He has been dreaming, anticipating, waiting.


 
 
Oh yes.

 


Errrr, that treasure chest we're looking for.... where could it be?




A map could help.




Not sure this makes any sense.




But there's a plan and a general direction. That leads us ....




... right back to where we were coming from.




Some art work.




And some more fishing.



For the good stuff.



And these little fish lead our guests straight home.
Satisified, we hope.
And not reeking of fish.

Under the sea

Nightly preparations for my son's 4th birthday:



They say there are plenty of fish in the sea.



And of course there are.



Plenty, mommymade fishies.


 
With weird goggly eyes.
 


Swimming around a treasure box.



And with my fishing net, I fish for the one unique treasure.



And there's only one like him. Ben.


Caught you!
