Tasha's 10th birthday

I'm not really sure who this girl is but she looks waaaayyy too old to be my little girl! How did she get so grown up?!? We had Tasha's 10th birthday party on Saturday and of course with her love of music she wanted a disco/karaoke themed party so instead of following our original plan of having karaoke in our back room we found a place that did karaoke themed parties - MUCH better idea!
Tasha's cake HAD to have a guitar on it!
Hitting the dance floor! I must say the kids were all so good with the younger cousins - if anything they got spoilt rotten by all the 10 year girls who thought they were "so cute"
And they thing that amazed me was Tasha with all her friends there when they were sitting down to eat made sure she had two of her little cousins either side of her and her other cousins were directly opposite!

They played heaps of games. they had an obstacle couse race, treasure hunt

Musical chairs! and heaps more
So all in all Saturday was a good night.

However....... on her actual birthday (Sunday) we went over to Auntie Gails in the afternoon and Tash was very quiet and withdrawn and then when we got home the poor little thing started vomiting. Its heartwrenching when your little girl is sitting there saying "Mum I just don't want to do this anymore" re being sick.

So this is how she ended up on her birthday!

We told her no more special days - she was sick for christmas and her birthday!
