Yes folks, it's true! Clara turned 7 years old on the 22nd December. To celebrate, we held a small birthday party for her with family and a few friends in attendance.
The big present of the day came from her Japanese grandparents. They gave Clara a Nintendo DS whilst her uncle gave her Tamagotchi software. It looks like I'm going to get a lot more peace and quiet over the next few weeks. I'm trying not to get too interested in her new toy as I can see myself becoming addicted as well. I am the king of procrastination, so the DS seems right up my street.
Another present that proved popular was Twister, the all time party favourite. The kids seemed to enjoy it and the adults had the extra challenge of not breaking any of the children's limbs. The adults were also faced with the considerable challenge of drinking all the alcohol in the house. We got through 6 bottles of wine and about 20 cans of beers.A very enjoyable evening and we all still had Christmas to look forward to!!
P.S. Sorry but blogger seems to be experiencing a few problems at the moment and it is proving difficult to post some photos and links. Hopefully the gremlins will be ironed out soon....

She is such a big girl and was it really 7 years ago that we were in Edinburgh visiting her for the first time? We loved seeing the party on web cam and seeing you all there enjoying yourselves.
