A Day at the Park

7 January 2010

I had a cute little birthday party planned for Scarlett at our house the evening after her birthday. Of course, Lucy had to break out in a rash that looked like it might be the chicken pox or something contagious and the party had to be canceled. Poor Scarlett. Since it was the week before Christmas, Steve was still finishing finals and starting a new job, and we were getting ready to go to CO, I was having an impossible time trying to figure out when to reschedule her party. So, I ended up just inviting the moms and babes to the park for cupcakes and juice boxes. It was really fun! It was low-key, low-maintenance, and the truth is that the kids probably had a better time playing on the playground and digging in the sand than they ever would have crammed into our house. I may just have to make this a tradition. Without Steve there, I didn't get as many pictures of all the kids as I would have liked, but here are a few of Scarlett inhaling a cupcake.

That was fun party. The cupcakes were gorgeous and the kids loved them and the juice boxes. Playing in the sand and going on the play equipment was a big hit. Very successful party!
