Happy Birthday to Aidan!

It was my nephew's 6th birthday this weekend. Steve and I went up to Scotland on Friday night. On the Saturday morning we went to my sister's house where Steve donned a Mr Lego Man costume in order to surprise the birthday boy and his friends.

There was no pulling the wool over a bunch of 6 year old's eyes though as they all claimed that he was not real. Aidan's cousin claimed that she knew it wasn't the real lego man because when she pulled his hand "it didn't come off and real lego comes apart!"

Steve was a great sport though as he was attacked by a bunch of balloon wielding children after some games of pass the parcel and musical statues.

Later after the kids had lunch he went back to the house and returned as "Uncle Steve" aka himself. One minute he was sitting nicely with Niamh and then slowly girls (about 6) started clambering on top of him 2 of whom claimed he was going to marry them! The poor guy!

The pictures are hilarious!

Aidan had a great day though and we were very pleased to have celebrated it with him.

After a visit to my aunt, Steve and I went back to Jo's house where we spent some time pre bed with the kids and then we adults enjoyed some Chinese take away and a nice bottle (or 2!) of wine.
