Well, all the birthday celebrations are over! We celebrate with cake and her present from mom and dad on her birthday (see pink icing) and then on Saturday with her birthday party with all the family!

It was a great couple of days. The party day was beautiful outside. Lots of people were able to swim ( I don't do a bathing suit in front of a bunch of people) but Piper was able to swim with the kids and Steve got in. We had hot dogs, brats, pasta salad, mac and cheese and ranch beans for lunch. Everybody was able to get something to eat I think (Steve's dad had at least 4 plates of food) And we did cake and ice cream and presents. Everyone was very generous and Piper received a bunch of fun toys and lots of nice clothes!

Check out the new cook in my house! She loves the play kitchen. She is playing with it all the time! It was a good idea - mom!
