Maisie got two birthday parties yesterday! We tried to do her party at 2:00 thinking that might be the warmest part of the day. Turns out this is more of a Happy Hour crowd and that party sort of flopped. Not to fear, Reg "baked" another cake and we had a birthday party re-do around 4:30 and a good time was had by all.
The first party wasn't a complete bust. Maisie enjoyed eating some birthday cake, but most of her friends didn't realize it was party time so they were heading out to graze the front field and she wanted to go with them. If you are the birthday girl (or pretty much any time), you get to make the rules.
I had technical difficulties with the live and recorded video with the first party, so I didn't even try to use my phone for the second party...and that may have been the best gift of the day. I dusted off the Big Girl Camera and took actual pictures just like in the olden times.
Love her little pink nose. That's Andy in the front.
I love sweet Baba on the right, politely waiting her turn.
Walking out into the middle of this crowd carrying a box of "cake" is not for the faint of heart. I always forget how big Murphy (at Reg's left elbow) is. Jared, in front of her, is not small. Muffin, in the background, is not small either, but she's doesn't like to get bounced around in the mosh pit so I snuck her a cookie later.
Reg shared with everyone, but made sure the birthday girl got the biggest share ;-).
Baaxter loves Auntie Reg. Liddy's just there for the "cake" ;-).
Now that was a party!
Happy Birthday, silly Maisie :-)
