Happy Hawaiian birthdays!

Now, if you've read my last few posts, you may be starting to notice a trend in my summer activities, namely, a penchant for picnics.

Continuing with the theme, I attended another picnic last Sunday - this time to celebrate the birthday of two lovely friends of mine!

Birthday girls Ellen and Sasha!

I have attended so many birthday celebrations this month already, and this also happened to be the second Hawaiian themed one, the first of which you may recall from a previous post, earlier in July.


There was Hawaiin music to transport us from Primrose Hill to a tiki paradise, as well as lots of colourful outfits, and an abundance of food and drinks.


There were also games!  Frisbee, badminton and....lemon jousting...


Every tiki party needs a tiki...


And every birthday party needs presents!


Ironically, despite the tropical temperatures that we have been experiencing lately, a short sprinkle of rain threatened to interfere with our fun...but luckily it stopped quite quickly and the sun came out.  Hooray!!!


It was a lovely day of celebration and fun, and to continue with this theme I have lots more birthdays coming up in August (including mine)!

  1. Talk about a fantastic way to spend a summer day! Good friends, fab tropical threads, fun games, scrumptious picnic nibbles - it doesn't get much better than that when the sun is out in full force.

    Happy early birthday wishes, dear gal!

    1. It was definitely a fun day out! It could have done with being a *little* warmer (it is positively HOT today) but you can't control the weather!

      Thank you Jessica!!! xx

    1. I want to visit Denver! A friend of mine was just there, and was raving about the amazing dancing and vintage shopping. So Denver is definitely on my list of places to visit now - watch out, I will be coming to visit you at some point! :)
