Karen's Birthday Weekend: Part One

We have had an amazingly busy, but fantastic weekend.
It was Karen's 50th birthday and we travelled down to Gisborne to celebrate it with her closest family and friends. It was a fantastic party and so wonderful to see old friends again!

The party had a black and white theme and a friend of Camille's made this absolutely stunning birthday cake to match the theme. It was a chocolate caramel marble cake and was every bit as delicious as it looked. :-)
The party was held at B's incredibly beautiful home by the beach, which is designed perfectly for entertaining and events such as these. I really, really want an oversized kitchen island now! :-)
Rosie and Eden were the only children at the party and we were very impressed with how well they did. This was Rosie's first grown up party!
It was such a wonderful night and tomorrow I will be sharing more about our great weekend. :-)
