My weekend

As you know I had my son's 5th birthday on Saturday.
My baby is now off to school...well he has been there for a week now.
As he is my baby. today Im feeling a bit lost. Last week was abit of whirlwind and I didnt really feel it...today Im feeling it.. just a little

We had the use of a good friends gutted out factory for the 'Race Car Party'
We hired six pedal cars.. these were a great success. The kids just LOVED them.
I bought some gold cups from the $2 shop and some gold medals. 
I managed to get some balloons with the racing car flag on them
Flags for the cupcakes. 

It was a great day.

We have a friend that owns a Lamborghini. Zac, loves Lamborghini cars and his Uncle bought it down especially for him to sit in... as you can see by the look on his face in the above photo.. he was very excited.!!

In the top left pedal car is our eldest daughter. She thought she would attempt to pedal around.. she didnt get too far... 

After the party was over I was sitting at the table at home. I have a vase of flowers on the table and decided to take some photos. I took one photo and then saw a Praying Mantis on the petals.
So I decided to have a photo session with a live specimen...

I hope you dont find this too boring but I was very fascinated what my Macro lens could do.....










If you have trouble loading the pictures, please let me know and I will downsize them... 

...so that was my Saturday.



Have a great day

What a great birthday! I would have been excited to sit in a Lamborghini too! Your photo's are beautiful, I agree they would make pretty postcards! Do you have an actual macro lens or did you just use the macro setting on your camera?

The party looks like great fun, the kind he will never forget! I love the pictures, especially the one where it seems to be looking right at the camera.
