Abby is 6!


My baby is six!! Her party was on a day we'll never forget. Not just because it was her Birthday party, but also because it was the day that Hurricane Ike hit Ohio!! Only about half of our guests could make it and we had her party without power or air conditioning!! Luckily we were able to still grill dinner (that's after the wind tossed our grill off the deck!!) and even Abby said it was the best party ever. You know, it is kind of nice to just sit down with a few of your favorite people, in the quiet of no electricity and just talk and laugh and have fun. I do feel like it was one of our best parties and we didn't play any kiddie games or anything like that. We just enjoyed each other's company. There's something to be said for that.



Happy Birthday Beater Monkey, we love you!!!

Are the cupcakes pawprints?

Happy Birthday!!! Glad that Ike didn't spoil the party for you. I am sure it made it even more memorable!

Yeah they are pawprints. She wanted a puppy party and that's what we had!! I made the pawprints myself!! She loved them and that's the important part!!
