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.
