On Sunday evening (August 5th) we met friends at the Salem Ice Cream Parlor to have a simple celebration together...just ice cream and sing to her again. I brought the presents that were from me, Aaron, and Vivian, and a few others needlessly brought a few things, too :)
Shannon took these awesome pictures for us...this first one cracks me up. There's a little ice cream diva in the front there, and her huge 9 months pregnant mom in the background taking a likewise huge bite out of her cone...that's just about right. She gets it from me, what can I say?!
It's so sweet to see the kids gather around the present-opener, excited to find out what she got! Imagine if we did this as adults when we give each other gifts. HA!
Ashely was kind to take over my camera and get these pictures.
She got some bubble gum in one of her presents, and Aaron started passing it out to the kids. They got wayyyy too much for their little mouths.
This crying picture shows how the gum thing ended badly...Kate had too much in her mouth and gagged on it, and threw up all over her shoes. She was a sad mess. Poor birthday girl! She got over it quickly, though, when Aaron took the kids outside to play.
I am so thankful that our girls have these friends to grow up with. They are so good to us!
