We had a great birthday weekend.... And Father's Day too. Today, the closets are getting installed and the driveway sealed, and that is Dennis's job to handle. Whoo Hoo!!! Anywhoo, here are some pictures from the weekend and party. We did a "make-your-own-pizza" party for Lucia... the invitations read "You make it, We Bake it!"... It was a huge success, and relatively easy in the grand scheme of things! For those of you with kids, if you want more details on it, let me know and I'll email you. Enough of that.... here is the evidence of a fun weekend!
We went to the pool with my in-laws and nephew before the party... just to make sure the kids were good and tired for later that night!
The party started out with each child getting a paper chef's hat and apron to decorate on the deck...
My adorable (I'm biased) nephew Gage...
Lucia and a friend working hard on decorating their hats...
Jordan and Lauren... a few more friends with their masterpieces!
The "make your own pizza" efforts begin... and not too much of a mess either!
Lucia and Gage debating the merits of pepperoni...
While the pizzas were cooking, the kids went back outside to play with real pizza dough... Easy - and a huge hit!!!
I think my friend Lori and I had more fun with the dough than the kids did...
The pizza masterpieces come out of the oven... lots of excited and hungry kids to eat their very own specialty! We had pizzas ranging from every topping on the table, to just the dough, 2 black olives and 7 slices of pepperoni. That was it!
After pizza, we did the requisite pinata outside - a lot of fun... I feel sorry for the decapitated donkey!
Ice cream cake...
And birthday wishes....
Chef Lucia had a really good time...
REALLY!!!!
