Kate's party this year was a gardening party. It was a beautiful spring day, the best all year and we all had a ball.
Each child had a pot with potting mix and a set of gloves. We potted a mixture of flowers, vegetable and herbs in the pot. The balloons were arranged to look like flowers on a stem and each child put a 'flower' in their pot when we were finished.
Kate asked to invite her prep teacher who was so obliging as to actually come. I think that only a prep teacher would be invited to a child's birthday party...and only a prep teacher would have the dedication to turn up. Thanks Miss Kelly!
Note: I received a few questions about the invitations. The font I used was a free downloadable front from dafont. The cards were some sweet scalloped cards from our local $2 shop, such a great find. The flowers were cut out using my girlfriend's Cuttlebug machine - boy is that thing addictive! The boys stamps were also hers which she bought from Stampin' Up.

What a wonderful party! I am a kindergarten teacher and I have just recently been to the pirate party of one of my students!
What a great idea! Looks like it was a wonderful day. I love the little cupcakes, how original. Great pictures!
how strange it is to read about a nice Spring day in October! Around here, the leaves are turning red and gold, the air is crisp and slightly smoky, and the pumpkins are being hauled in from their frost-blackened vines. enjoy your warm weather~ winter is on its way here:)
What a fantastic idea for a party! The invitations looked great and looks like everyone had a great time and something to take home and watch grow.
