Party in Pictures
Posted under People I love
Miss Clara, Diggy’s true love forever, turned 3 this week. She’s quite a LADY now, very grown up and quite the little miss. Diggy adores her, absolutely adores her and (phew) the sentiment is reciprocated in buckets. They are In Love and are to be married, apparently. The shrieks and squeals of joy when they see each other never fails to bring a little tear to my eye…the quiet handholding and hugging and even (see above) a bit of kissing. Luckily Miss Clara lives next door and they go to nursery together so they have plenty of opportunity to be together. She popped over yesterday just before her party. Diggy was asleep at the time, so the poor girl pottered around the garden looking very confused…”Where….where…where my Diggy?” she eventually asked, sounding very glum. Heart breaking!
Bertie is equally enamored with Clara’s older sister, Imogen. Alas she loves another however. Bertie cannot compete with the dark haired boy at nursery who has captured her heart. She only loves boys with dark hair, perhaps I should die it for him? Those blonde locks are holding him back…although he has A Plan. He has decided to dress up as Imogen’s beau on their wedding day, and make a mask so he looks like him. Then he will steal his bride by stealth. AHA!
Pre-school love, it’s complicated. You know?
Miss Clara’s party in pictures, processed vintage/70s style which seems fitting for the old-fashioned, relaxed style of party that it was. Although I don’t remember bouncy castles in the 70s? Just a lot of static from the long party dress, made from nylon. Nice.
Happy Birthday lovely Clara! We love you…although Diggy loves you the best xxxxx
so cute!
your portraits of the children are just stunning.
Such sweet, sweet images. The kiss is perfection. Perfection!
That last one? Man–I could look at it forever. Those eyes and that blonde hair? Beautiful.
Such gorgeous shots spud. Especially the first one capturing ‘the kiss’.
Planning our visit to nab Bertie’s heart… X
Gorgeous pictures! The kids, the cupcakes, the general happiness that just floods from the shots!
Though the last shot is absolutely stunning, I have to say, and my fave of the bunch :-)
I am so proud of our Clara’s taste, for she has fallen for a lovely boy who, just like Clara, knows his mind. Every morning I ask both girls what and who was in their happy dreams and without fail Clara says Diggy for she only ever dreams about her boy! On the love front: I wonder if you having two boys will require any less counsel than our having two girls? It will be an interesting comparison over the next two decades. Thanks also: you are a top person to have at a party as not only do you take care of the supply of treasured boys but you captured the event in touching style without which it would have fallen prey to the random snaps we managed to fit in between cake and Pimms!
The kiss photo is amazing! Beautiful story telling Queen Spud.
Ooooh I love your pictures they’re wonderful. I came over here from Playpennies.com, and I will be putting this on my list of regular blogs to visit. thanks :)
