The Teddybears Picnic

Grace had a rubbish 2007, she had been ill for most of it,and in and out of hospital culminating in needing a wheel chair already at just 7 years old.

We wondered what we could do to as a nice surprise because of everything she had endured without complaint.

It was her birthday yesterday and this is what we did-

We had a teddybears picnic. We had to go to the Build a bear workshop to get the necessary bears for the picnic and as the nearest workshop is in Solihull (which is half an hours drive away) we decided to hire a limo.

What a fantastic time Grace and five of her friends had choosing bears and accessories, they even got to stuff the bears themselves.

We returned home in the limo and had the picnic sitting on the kitchen floor on a picnic blanket followed by birthday cake.

Grace said it was the best birthday she had ever had...... but it is only what she deserves..... and still not enough in my opinion.

Pictures to follow-

Glad Gracie had a cracking birfday, sounds good that kitchen floor bit does.

Much love Gilly.
