Happy 6th Birthday!

Emma celebrated her "real" birthday on August 27th with dinner at Bob Evans (so she could have her favorite meal, pancakes) and presents from Mommy and Daddy. However, the big celebration took place on Saturday the 31st when we had a party with our family and friends! This year Emma chose a Littlest Pet Shop theme, so her snacks included "Monkey Food" (bananas), "Kitty Chow" (powdered chex mix), "Fish Food" (goldfish crackers), "Puppy Treats" (bone-shaped graham crackers), and "Yummies for Grrr-owly Tummies" (animal-shaped peanut butter sandwiches). For the adults (and more adventuresome kids), Todd and Karen fixed a wonderful buffet, including pulled pork and coney dogs. For an activity, the kids each chose a Littlest Pet Shop character to adopt, then they designed adoption certificates and "homes" (colored take-out boxes) for their new toys. Also new this year was a princess pinata, which Grandma Karen kept a secret until it was time to break it! Everyone had a great time, and it was nice to have so many friends and family join us! We had not seen many of them in quite a while, so it was a great chance to enjoy each other's company!
