And the 'Out of Africa' party begins ...

... Wow!!! If you don’t mind me boasting ... The party was AWESOME. I viewed the first two hours of the party from Mommy’s back and loved it!
The rain stopped a half an hour into the party.
As guests arrived they were greeted by Nanny Gia and Baba ZaZa and a big ‘Howzit’, then they got their bracelet/necklace, then walked down a lantern lit path with animal footprints guiding them.
Once they arrived at the party, they were greeted by a GORGEOUS looking Cassilee Kahn and a Jello-Shot, made lovingly by Kat (with loads of Vodka!). All the guests did a great job at dressing up.
After some drinks and socialising for a bit, the guests were led by the Drummer from Teambeat into the next door garden and an hour of drumming followed. Wow, what a drumming session, Cas stole the show!
Then back to our garden - drinks, food, chatting. Then speeches: Gia (and Kara, Dean, Marc via letters), Robbie, Cassi’s three friends together – Candice; Gina; Claud, and then Mel – who did an extra awesome speech.
Ps: What was I doing? Well, for the first two hours I was on Mom’s back , chilling, looking, smiling – while Mom ran around doing a million and one things.
Then I did some drumming, and was handed to each and every person, while mom ran around doing a million and one things – including cleaning up (believe it or not – she can’t stand clean and dirty stuff together at parties), and painting people’s faces with a bit of Africa.
All in all – I just fitted in and had fun. And I loved all the attention and everyone telling me I am beautiful and an awesome baba!
