We celebrated Haley's birthday this past weekend. It was a couple days early but she didn't seem to care. We had a bunch of family and friends over for burgers and cupcake. It was a great time even though she wanted nothing to do with the sweet cupcake?!?!?! Seconds after finishing our groups rendition of "Happy Birthday to You" she broke into tears. Even hiding cake inside other foods wouldn't do the trick. She was on to us. I am not sure who was more upset about her not wanting cake...me because of all the cupcakes I knew that I was now going to have to eat myself, her daddy because he LOVES cake, or her grandma and granny cause they now have to spoil her with veggies! Ha. I am going to keep trying and hope that she will eventually cave to me pushing sugar on her (writing that down make me sound like a horrible mother!!!).
The party was a blast and I am sure Haley will remember it for minutes to come. Ha. I guess she will always have the pictures. Thanks everyone for coming and enjoy the crazy cake.
It is amazing how much fun Justin has doing something I hate...and vice versa. This past weekend he donated his time to helping my dad clear the lot down by the creek. He was giddy like a little girl at the chance to work with his hands and get a little dirty. I only got a few details here and there about what went on; something about chain saws, falling trees, poison ivy, fire, and did I mention chain saws. He had a blast and managed to make it through the weekend with relatively little wear and tear on his body. I spent my time shopping and sleeping late. Oh, what a joyous weekend!
