Macro Mondays is a weekly theme-based challenge group. This weeks mission? Sound. The subject had to be a man-made item that creates sound. I chose a child's whistle.

 

While I was shooting, I kept thinking about the poor parents who would have to listen to the horrid sound that these whistles produce! lol Measurement of the subject is 3/4" width and 3/4"length.

 

Happy Macro Monday! HMM!

 

Thank you so much for stopping by and for your comments. I do appreciate hearing from you! Have a terrific day and week ahead!

Today Jonah celebrated his birthday with his friends. We went to 'de Ontdekplek'. What a perfect place for a children's party that is!!! Kids can build all sorts of things, and are instructed by volunteers.

This Caleidoscope is amazing, you can look at lots of twin(multi)brothers around you.

my grandson was at a children's party in the hands of a make-up artist working professionally for the theater

From Better Homes and Gardens, December 1969. Accompanied an article about Christmas themed children's parties.

Candy Land was always my favorite game to play as a little girl, and I can remember thinking how much I'd love to actually be able to walk into such a tasty world. Full of fun colors and sweet treats, this timeless board game translates into a terrific party theme for a truly imaginative birthday.

Photos from our daughter's first birthday. As blogged about on Aesthetic Outburst (post date: 10.17.10).

We have been to Clonbrock many times before (there are now 20+ images clustered around the estate on the location map). However, we perhaps have not seen such a large group of non-Dillons before. With thanks to Sharon and Niall, it seems likely this image is one of a series dated 1904 and labelled "school treat". As DannyM8 and guliolopez point out, it also seems the photographer captured their own (probably her own) shadow in the foreground. Thanks also to O Mac for inputs on location and La Belle Province for the usual fashion insights :)

After posting our reader request inspiration board for a coral and brown anniversary party, we received a new inspiration board request from For Your Inspiration:

 

"I wanted to ask your advice on a birthday party I'm planning for my daughter's 2nd birthday...the party theme is Sesame Street, but I don't want it to be saturated with Elmo, Big Bird and Cookie Monster. I want it to be classy and personal, not cartoon-y and commercial. Is that possible?"

 

I do believe that you can host a classy birthday party for your daughter without crossing the line into commercialization. Just use a few character touches here and there and keep the rest of the party simple and sweet. Here is an inspriation board built around Sesame Street's Cookie Monster.

My son had a birthday party today at a local soft play centre. After the first hour and a half of screaming I grew a little restless, and went in search of some colour medicine.

May I join you in the doghouse, Rover?

I wish to retire till the party's over.

Since three o'clock I've done my best

To entertain each tiny guest.

My conscience now I've left behind me,

And if they want me, let them find me.

I blew their bubbles, I sailed their boats,

I kept them from each other's throats.

I told them tales of magic lands,

I took them out to wash their hands.

I sorted their rubbers and tied their laces,

I wiped their noses and dried their faces.

Of similarities there's lots

Twixt tiny tots and Hottentots.

I've earned repose to heal the ravages

Of these angelic-looking savages.

Oh, progeny playing by itself

Is a lonely little elf,

But progeny in roistering batches

Would drive Saint Francis from here to Natchez.

Shunned are the games a parent proposes,

They prefer to squirt each other with hoses,

Their playmates are their natural foemen

And they like to poke each other's abdomen.

Their joy needs another woe's to cushion it,

Say a puddle, and someone littler to push in it.

They observe with glee the ballistic results

Of ice cream with spoons for catapults,

And inform the assembly with tears and glares

That everyone's presents are better than theirs.

Oh, little women and little men,

Someday I hope to love you again,

But not till after the party's over,

So give me the key to the doghouse, Rover
