Birthday Bash

This year was Trevor's turn for a birthday party with his friends.  Since he hasn't had one since he was three (yeah, I know, that hardly counts), I wanted to make it really special.  He picked a paint-your-own-pottery place as the spot for his party.  I thought that was a huge improvement over his first idea of you-know-where (you know, the place with the pizza and the arcade and the giant mouse?).  So when he mentioned this, I ran with it.  Invitations shaped like paint palettes, rainbow cupcakes and pretzel  party favors dipped in chocolate to look like paint brushes.  Everyone had a great time.  Trevor came up to me at home that night and said, "Mom, thanks so much for my party.  It was really great."

Awwww.

Anytime, Honey.  Happy 9th!
