Spanish Birthday Party

Noam and Tamari are BFF. 
it started at the end of first year in kindergarten, got stronger at the second year, and once they started first grade at school, it was strong and steady. 
They were born one month a part from each other so just like last year, they wanted to celebrate their 7 birthday this year together. Six weeks before the party Hilla (Tamari's mom) and I, along with the girls, started thinking about a theme to the party. After few ideas, Hilla came up with the idea of Flamenco party, great idea for a girls party. Noam and Tamari were very exited about the concept and the preparation for the party started. 

It was obvious that the colors of the party will be red-black-white so I order few products that will fit the concept and colors and we start thinking about the design. Few days before the party Hilla and I made the pompons, cupcakes, cookies, tags, welcome sign and everything was ready for Friday. 

This was the invitation:

Early B-Day for Noam

Noam was born on late July but because the summer vacation in kindergarten and school in Israel is between July 1 and August 31 (2 long months for the parents…) you always celebrate early. I was born on September and when I was a kid my B-Day celebration was always late because it is the beginning of school and also the holiday time here. That is the reason that I planed my second pregnancy, I wanted to have the baby on spring time, the best time, not hot too much and not cold too much and birthdays are on their time. So Omri was born on late April.

Anyway, since the kids going for the summer vacation in few days, we celebrate Noam birthday with them last Friday. It was good also because my sister managed to make the designed cake before she and her family goes for a few weeks vacation to the USA.

Noam was very excited before the party but Naama, the girl that made the show, manage to help here get over it very fast so the had great time.

I can't upload pictures of the kids at the party, so here are few pictures of Noam:

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is her B-Day cake (she asked for a princess with hearts):

 

 

The candies the kids got at the end:

 

 

The marshmallow lollipops:

 

 

And 2 T-shirts I bought for her with sentences that fit her.

The first one says: "I only look tough"
because she is very shy, sometimes she doesn’t smile and looked like tough girl, but you can melt her easily:

 

The second shirt says: "how small, that big"
she is small on the size but mature on her thoughts.

happy Purim!

Purim is a Jewish holiday which celebrates the deliverance of the Jewish people that lived in ancient Persian Empire, from the evil Haman, that wanted to kill all of them.

That day is celebrate as a festival day, everyone wear costumes and eating special cookies that called "oznay Haman" (the ears of Haman), they are in a shape of triangle and inside there are all kind of sweet stuffed (chocolate, palms jam, poppy and more.

 

My little boy had a kitten custom and my girl had a fairy custom

 

this is fairy Noam:

 

   
 

And with her magic wand:

 

 

and this is kitten Omri:

  

Pity that all the parades, outdoors shows and festivals canceled because of the rain.

Why almost every Purim it is raining?

 

hope that next year it will be sunny.
