Saturday couldn’t have been more lovely for a birthday party. I took Emma G and three of her friends to get their nails painted at the local salon. I think they loved it. Then it was home to prepare. I kind of go mad throwing birthday parties, because I absolutely love celebrating someone’s life. The menu was homemade pizza, a veggie tray, cake, grapes, and dark chocolate truffles (more on this later including a giveaway). I always think in the midst of all the baking and everything that I will take awesome birthday photos. The truth is that I never have time. Mark my words, next year I’m going to plan ahead and ask for help in the pre-party prep, so I’m not running around like a crazy woman!
Many thanks to our friends and family who celebrated with us and for those who recognized my craziness and pitched in to help get the food out. I still can’t believe my baby is now 7. I think my other baby is now counting backward rather than forward. {Smile.} I love these two!
