When we woke up on Sunday it was blue sky and zero cloud. We were definately having this party outside. After weeks of on and off rain, it was touch and go as to whether this party would end up outside or not. I really wanted it outside for many reasons but mainly for space issues. The backup was Mum and Dad's place but if it was raining it was going to be chaos with all the kids ingesting truckloads of sugar.
So at lunchtime, the clouds started to roll over and I was wavering in my decision to have the party at the park but on we went, confident that God had this covered. We arrived, and just as we started to set up, down came the rain.
Aghh! In a bit of a flap, my dear friend came and said, "Mum and Dad are happy for you to use the theatre if you want?" Yep thats right people. It just so happened that my friend's parents own Avoca Beach Picture Theatre which was just across the road from where we were. And so, in the pouring rain we had Noa's party in the beautiful grounds of a heritage listed theatre. God totally had this covered.
The kids ran around in the rain, squealing with delight whilst the adults hovered undercover chatting away.
Happy Birthday was sung, the cake devoured and lots of good convos enjoyed.
All in all I would say it was a success!
Happy Birthday Noa x
