party hardy marty

due to circumstances beyond our control (BLASTED SCHOOL) we had to have abby's party today. it was nice and chill and everyone just hung out. i even got a compliment on my cake! which is from scratch, by the way. i haven't bought a cake mix for almost a year. how's that for tooting my own horn?

anyways...back to ABBY! it was her party and i think she was happy just having something only about her. she was quite pleased to see a lot of her aunts and uncles there.

the cake. originally we were going to have a princess theme.

then abby changed her mind and wanted a corduroy party. cute, but huh? how do i pull that off?

so instead i made it a generic flower theme. lame, but still cute.

and last night in the wee hours of the night frosting and decorating i sang rush songs to myself.

this one's for abby-and i love evelyn down there watching

 

oh yeah, i chopped off all my hair. LOVE IT.

 

we can't get enough of aunt sarah (and i didn't get pictures of ty's siblings- but we love them too)

 

um, phoebe you look like you were bitten by a swarm of bees my dear.

 

and three is the best age ever! sike.
