The Party Is Over....


I stayed up till the morning hours before Freckles birthday morning. I cleaned, made gifts, wrapped it all up and decorated the dining room, with just a mere few hours of sleep, she woke up early, bright eyed and bushy tailed, ready to spend the day together. We woke up her daddy from his slumber and gathered around the table while she opened her gifts....Here is just a few of the things...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

After she opened her gifts, I made her special breakfast, which she requested. Crepes with Nutella spread, cut up bananas with whipped cream on top. Now hows that for sweet and full of carbs to start off the day? Below is a good basic crepe recipe for you, if anyone is interested.

 
 
 

We got ready for the day ahead and scoured a couple book stores for the day, had lunch , came home fora little rest, because you know, all Super Heroes need to put up their feet for a bit. Then off we went again to the movies. We got home late....And I still had to make the frosting for her cake.

And what birthday wouldn't be perfect without the birthday cake. So, about ten o'clock I was frosting her cake. She made her wishes and blew out the candles just in time for 11p.m which was officially the time she was born. We sang Happy Birthday...
 
 
 

It was a wonderful day spent with her on her special day.
She actually said it was one of the best birthdays she has ever had.
I agree.
