the birthday

At our house, on your birthday, you get to pick what's for dinner and no one gets to complain- On Parker's birthday i thought we were having mac and cheese for sur.. She decided she wanted pizza- homeade pizza.. so we made home made pizza! We had a family party and then a pj pizza party with 23 girls (yikes) at our house! we all survived- nana and mr. ross helped- a few of my friends helped in the "nail salon" to paint nails and toes.. here are some pics..

spiders

here are some creepy crawlies.. these are for the teachers at Parker's school- they are really peppermint patties- I used my scallop circle punch, and my corner punch.. (my stmapin mamaas are making some so don't worry you two! )

snack

Snack, snack, I just want a snack....

clearly..

Clearly I am going to die, if I don't get a pretzel soon.. I really can't wait two seconds for my mom to help me...

I will..

I WILL get a pretzel no matter what my mom says..

thirsty....

All that drama makes a girl thirsty...

climbing at the zoo

at the zoo playground

that peacock..

We were eating lunch at the zoo and A peacock came up from behind Abe and ate a bite of his hotdog- we did not even see it coming.. it scared the crap out of him!!

walruses??

A new variety of walrus??

the zoo

Before nana and mr. ross came for a visit, we went to the zoo- we realize that the nice weather is fading fast- soon they will be few and far between around here so we headed to the zoo- it was a little chilly and all of the animals were out! :) I have a ton of pictures to post- TWO field trips to the pumpkin patch- on the SAME day! A Birthday party for Parker ... This should tide you over for a few days- I have my Montessori classes tonight, but I should have time tomorrow afternoon- :)
