Simple Pleasures






We celebrated Audrey's birthday with a simple, old fashioned party once we got home from our trip.

After she and her sister enjoyed filling their bellies with the annual birthday breakfast of ice cream


she and my mom frosted the cupcakes and roses from Eric's mom arrived.



Audrey requested just a few kids at her party and only the neighbors she was closest to. And Frib

We invited children from two families and so a small group of six children spent a couple of hours enjoying summertime and childhood.


They played Musical Cushions and Pin the Tail on the DonkeyOpened presents and ate pink cupcakes


Sorted through their goodie bucketsAnd drank their. very. own. big. bottles of Jones Soda. For Audrey, it was perfection.


The day ended with a sleepover in her sister's trundle bed enjoying pizza and finally sleeping like a five year old beauty.

Well, can't comment under my blogger account (what's with that? Perhaps my lack of blogging has seen me exclusively barred from Blogger!!!)

Anyway, love the pictures. You host parties so well and I just know the girls will look back at their childhood parties and perhaps create similar joyous memories with their own children..

That's my hope for all of us!

Great to see you posting again!
