Josh wore these glasses pretty much all day on Heather's birthday...until he started feeling super sick.

 At one point he was trying to get me to do something and he said, "I have glasses, you have glasses..." ( quote from Turbo) He also wanted to take a picture with my glasses. Ok...whatever you say, Josh.


Josh's day ended pretty miserably. He ended up getting a fever and a really bad cough. Made worse by his RAD (reactive airways disease). No one slept very well that night.


Heather had her heart set on a birthday party this year. So, I caved. We had the easiest party ever! We did everything Heather loves--dressed up, put makeup on, decorated our own cupcakes, ate ice cream cones, and played with friends.  What more could a girl want? Answer: NOTHING!


Birthday invite

The set up was really easy. I just borrowed a bunch of dresses from our friends with 3 girls, and strung them on a clothes line. I set out the mirror that usually goes on the piano. And set out accessories.

FYI: I moved the things that were on the bookcase for the actual party...

Gloves, hats, hair, crowns, and boas.

Party favors. Lots of jewels.

Putting on our faces.



Opening presents


We sang to Joshua too...his party will be next year.

All the pretty princesses.
Happy Birthday Heather! We sure love you!
