This is what happens when you let your kids stay up very late dancing, blowing bubbles and eating cupcakes

We had a family wedding on Saturday and narry a babysitter in sight. 'Let's bring the kids for a little while...,' we mused, 'What's the worst that could happen?'

Warning: deranged eyes

I haz: new dress, bad hair, messy kitchen and sad eyes

Jamie haz: lotsa bubbles

Hilarity of bubbles directly proportional to proximity to midnight

Must. Have. Them.

Finally. But I am only going to eat the frosting.

I am going to eat this one in 18 seconds and then pester you for 3 hours for another.

If you ever need proof that the combination of over-stimulation, fatigue and sugar truly does make a child demented, please reference this photo diary of Maia. If you scroll down very quickly, it's like a flip book of someone losing their sh*t.

Look, I am a very nice girl.

Yes, that is a sparkle you see in my eye.

Okay, I am a little bit cheeky.

My sanity is now dangling by a thread.

I am feeling rabid.

WTF, girl, you stole my moves.

Exeunt: Mum, Jamie and Maia.

    what a fabulous time they had though - bless 'em!
    last wedding we took the boy to it was the grown-ups who wanted to go home - he'd have partied on till the early hours!
