Now I take delight of sharing a few of the photographs from Beth's party with you...
Firstly, let me thank each of you for your lovely birthday wishes for Beth...how kind you all are!

After ever so many vintage, pink and girly party themes over the last few years, we decided to do something completely different for a change and thought a Wild West party would be lots of fun!
We saw an adorable idea in a magazine for a cowboy boot cake, complete with spurs...so I set to work on Tuesday baking a deliciously rich chocolate cake and whipping up some lovely butter icing...hmmm...
This cake was so much fun to make...❤
That evening whilst Nancy was busy
wrapping Beth's gifts, I began by cutting the shape (drawn by my dear mom!), sandwiching the two
layers together and giving it an initial layer of icing to ensure no
bits of cake were visible in the final layer... Then Nancy wove her magic with fondant icing to create the details...
Pure excitement...smiles...
Wednesday dawned beautiful and crisp... After Beth unwrapped her birthday gifts, we had some delicious hot chocolate made with dark chocolate, and what hot chocolate would be complete without marshmallows...?
Beth with her hot chocolate...perfect for a chilly winter's day!
Rebekah enjoying her cup of hot chocolate...❤
We then prepared the few things we needed to give Beth a little party... We just had one sweet family join us, which was lovely...
Nancy and Mom made these cute party packs containing a bandana, a sheriff badge and a few chocolate coins...
The party bags...wouldn't you like to receive one, my friends...?
The goodies within...

Tea and cake were the simple but delicous refreshments served at the party...along with smiles and laughter...
...And so the day ended with a wonderful family dinner...smiles...
What a special, relaxed day we had with the birthday girl...I honestly can't believe
she is 11 already...how the time flies! ❤

I hope you enjoyed a peek at Beth's birthday party, dear friends!
Have a wonderful weekend further!
