Hope your DD has a wonderful bday and is surprised by lots of friends, cards, and more. What a great idea for a party. If the weather is perfect that doesn't mean there shouldn't still be lots of excitement and many great memories for another day.
Now, a belly dancing lady pirate ... Aarrrrggggghhhh matey !!!!
Those other boats better beware !!!!!
Hey, I like that Was2sad!! Now what would a proper lady pirate wear? Tall boots, the push up and out bra, hmmmmm, shorts? I definitely am going to have to update my wardrobe.
The bday party was interesting. It rained heavily and was cool. The chocolate fountain gurgled and burped in the cold but flowed and about 24 kids showed up. We cranked up the music in the pavillion and the kids danced and ate (with a little dancing on the side from me as they laughed). I also bought 9 disposable cameras and bubbles. DD was a little disappointed in how few came but considering the weather and time, it was perfect for where we had to hold it. Two friends came and helped me. I am so grateful that they were there! Trucking all the food and stuff would have been really difficult otherwise. Now the freezer is full and DD and I will be having luncheon meat in everything for the next month, not to mention cake (for some reason no one wanted chocolate cake after eating a pound of the chocolate fountain! - imagine that)
I keep musing/reflecting over H's card. (hey, the last contact from him was flowers on Mother's Day) Was he reaching out to her or just trying to be pitiful? I am not responding because it wasn't too me and I don't think DD will respond either. very sad.
Sitting quietly doing nothing, the flowers bloom effortlessly.
