Last minute birthday ...

Yesterday (Friday), I received a text asking if we were going to RSVP to a birthday party for tomorrow.  So, I ask my gorgeous 5 year old if he received and invite before school ended 2 weeks ago.

Liam:  Yes mum ... it's in my blue foler

The party was the next day.  Here were my instructions:

Liam:  It has to be green with crocodiles mum, Gus loves green and a cave with crocodiles.

This is what we ended up with ....
