Happy Birthday Jason

Since Paige's birthday is just one day before J's, we had threatened a shared princess party for both of them. In protest, J requested a "deer hunting" cake. This is the best we could come up with.. complete with a bubbling brook with rocks, tufted grass, camo attire, bambi and a serious rifle! The birdfeeder went along with some camo malt balls - Jason's favorite candy in the perfect theme for his party! Happy Birthday.

Happy Birthdays

We had a birthday get-together for the kids today. It was great to have the grandparents here to celebrate. Jen made some great bug-theme cupcakes and made a great lunch.

Museum Trip

I took Avery to the Maine State Museum today. I haven't been in a long time, and we both had a great time. Avery really liked the old water-powered mill exhibit as well as the old locomotive that they have on display. My favorite was a brand new exhibit called "At Home in Maine." It displayed rooms from Maine homes from the 1800's the 1960's and was quite amazing. I saw a lot of people walking around saying things like, "we used to have one of those when I was a kid."

We both enjoyed the trip to the museum, the yummy lunch at Pizza Hut and the trip through the car wash with Jen's car.

I've posted some other pictures below, including my favorite of "Paige: Arctic Explorer."
