Bert & Ernie Party

Today we celebrated Evie's birthday with a Bert and Ernie party. In the morning we opened presents. We gave her, together with Uncle Thijs, her first big girl bicycle. It's sooooo pretty! Felix gave her a suitcase back pack for her upcoming trip.


When we first started planning the party we asked Evie what she wanted to do and she replied that she wanted a Bert and Ernie party. Ask and she shall receive.
The Invitations
Evie with the snack table. There was banana cake, oatmeal butterscotch cookies, rice krispie treats, dip, veggies, and chips.
The Cake
Finn helped us by filming the singing of all the birthday songs. In Holland there are about four and we are lucky enough to have friends who know the extended versions. Always a treat!

As an activity for the kids we printed out faces of the Sesame Street characters to color and decorate.

And of course there was just good old playing outside.
