it cracks me up that she's the only one not smiling...perhaps too many photos
she got loads of craft and art supplies
This is what it looked like most of the time...chaos. The kids never really knew whose turn it was and they all wanted to help each other. It was the good kind of chaos though, the kind you can just sit back and let happen.
A close up of the "cupcake" cake. Adam did the decorating and Lori supplied the pan.
It was a fun afternoon spent with family celebrating a birthday. I know Tess had a great time, she already wants to do it again.
As for the rest of the afternoon. We ended up at Barnes and Noble for a while where I bought a few books for the kids for this summer. Afterward we headed home in the crazy rain and upon arrival I went straight to my room to read (it's nice when kids are old enough that you can do this) and quickly fell asleep. I didn't want to, but I couldn't help it. Adam worked on painting my cabinets black, the last step in my bathroom transformation, so I'm that much closer to sharing my toilet free bathroom.

It looks like such a fun birthday! I love the cake! Stella's first birthday is Sunday and I am trying to decide if I should make her more than a cupcake to play in...
That cake is SO cute. Looks like a blast!
I love that cake- he did a great job! The whole day sounds lovely- except the driving in the rain part. That I could have done without!
I thought the family outing combine with Tess' birthday party turned out fabulously!
I love reading about what you guys do after we've been together. I'm surprised that Adam can go home and begin working on a project. What a guy!
It's so funny when I read your words, "Adam's family" because I just think of us as family- I forget that you have another side (yours). That might sound weird, but I just don't think of you as a part of any other family but ours.
Tess' cake was so cute and I thought the day was lots of fun. I loved how we could let the kids eat on their own and for the most part, bowl on their own too. Yeah! They are finally getting big and we can actually have conversations and enjoy ourselves too!
What a great day! This is such a fun age. I still remember when you brought her down when Taye was born. What a love!
