Bethany requested (and was promised) an Octonaut cake for her birthday. For those of you who haven't met them, Octonauts are cartoon characters who EXPLORE RESCUE and PROTECT in an underwater world. For weeks and weeks and WEEKS before her birthday she would announce in an excited voice "Octonaut Cake!" So no pressure on Jon then.....Here's his amazing effort (with beautiful roses from our garden for Bethany Rose).
Just in case you can't see the full extent of Jon's genius here's a closer shot....the top with the symbol for the Octo Alert, the side is the under water world....
Here's Bethany getting ready for the party held Saturday 22 October, with baby doll and her Octonaut books,
..Octo craft (stamping and sticking creating a sea scene)
..parachute games...
....trampolining...
....cars, trains and pirate ship play!
Smiles all round!
