Just finished a whirl-wind of a weekend! We had a double birthday party-my daughter turned three, my son turned one.
Since they are so lucky to have their birthdays a few weeks apart, they got to share their party. We’ll see how long that lasts in the future…
I love the planning process-especially for the cakes!
Summer is upon us here in Seattle…well, sort of. We have our occasional hot days anyway. Time for frozen treats for the kiddos.
