Elsie's 2nd birthday..... We took the little girls to the mall and lunch at My Big Fat Greek Restaurant (kids eat free).
my dads on this mt man kick- hence the beard.



A few of her friends have these kitties from build a bear, they don't like to share.
She finally got her own.

She got some princess barbies (of course) and a Tinkerbell sweater.
The kids wrapped up toys they already had and gave them to her.
My house has NO ROOM for anymore dollar store toys!



Group blowing out candles

i was all set to make Martha Stewart type cupcakes....then the kids wanted to help.

i made some whole wheat, honey, banana cupcakes, no one complained.

then i realized they never actually ate the cupcake- just the tons of sugar on top.

TIP- i had store bought frosting and whipped in some light cream cheese- it tasted SO MUCH BETTER!


CHILD LABOR..... we send out a lot of Christmas cards. over 400. grace said her tongue was getting tired.

the kids have to help. please email me your addresses if you want a family card. swimmingmom888@aol.com
