Happy Halloween!

I am thinking either Dracula or Spock next year . . .

Happy Birthday Katie!

My oldest child is now 30 years old.

Wow!

I threw Katie a small family party.

Her favorite color is pink and so I envisioned a room filled with 

pink flowers, pink balloons, and of course a pink cake with pink candles.

Yet somehow it didn't quite work out that way.

First . . . I am now a full time working woman.

Second . . . if I have a 30 year old child I am way old.

Third . . . I wish I had a really good excuse but I don't.

So when I called Dick's Market to order a cake the morning AFTER my daughter's birthday

and requested a birthday cake for that afternoon I was told there was

one last white cake with raspberry filling left.

"It's yellow, and purple, and green, and pink."

Great I thought. It will be fine.

Well . . . let's just say it's too bad it wasn't Grant's birthday.

However, he ended up enjoying the cake so much that Katie was fine with the 

ugliest cake we have ever seen.

Besides, I ended up making her a homemade buttermilk chocolate cake

with divinity frosting because I felt so bad about the boy cake.

Here are the pictures from Katie's party:

Thank Goodness My Floor Was Clean

Grant and I had a nice evening together.

We played.

He had a bath.

I put one of my old t-shirts on him.

He ate some candy.

I took some pictures.

My happy place.
