my baby turned 8 today. she celebrated in style with a pool party attended by all her friends. the socal weather did not disappoint. my mom is here which made it even more special. she received the skateboard she's been wishing for. there were cupcakes: chocolate with blackberry buttercream frosting and vanilla with a 7-minute frosting and strawberries (which disappeared before i could photograph them). lots of balloons. and lots and lots of smiles.

this girl of mine is the happiest kid i know. out of that comes an amazing kindness. i learn so much from her every day.

happy birthday sweet girl. "8-town" looks good on you.

p.s. we opted out of goodie bags again this year. (last year everyone took home a sombrero and a "7" cookie.) this year as guests departed we handed out "8" cookies that k had decorated (an already favourite recipe, so couldn't count as cookie of the week!) and everyone got a balloon.

I sooo look forward to meeting this one, one day - so much character comes across in each snap! Happy (belated) 8th! (Has it really been that long?! ) xo
