This little Mermaid had a birthday! She wanted a mermaid pool party, so we made it happen. The weather held out for another swim day at grandpa Steve's pool, thank goodness!
She had a vanilla with strawberry filling and a chocolate hazelnut cake. They were my first try at dairy free cakes, and they turned out pretty good! She even helped make the chocolate seashells for the decorations.
Grandma Evelyn came, and it was so nice to chat with her. It is always heartbreaking to see people getting older, but she is such a great example of having a good attitude through any trial. She shared her crackers with Isaac, which made him pretty happy. This guy loves food!
And a party just wouldn't be a party with out some kind of crazy family fun.
Viviann got a venus fly trap from Max and Brandy. So naturally we fed it every single bug we could find. This included a gem of a spider that Cheri found in the basement. It was HUGE!!
Riley thankfully stayed calm and caught the spider, killed it and then stuffed it inside the biggest plant there was. Here's the proof. Riley and Venus fly trap 1: Giant Brown recluse spider 0!
Viv, we sure love you baby! You're a joy to have in our family. So spunky and fun. We are better with you here!
