Lizzy's 10th Birthday.

Lizzy wanted a "cooking" birthday party this year. How fun! We started by decorating chef hats and aprons. The girls were very creative, and colorful. Once we were dressed to cook, my friend Si Foster taught them how to make Calzones. Si is one of the best cooks I know. After each girl made their very own calzone, I had them decorate Lizzy's birthday cake that I had made. What a party! We managed with very few mishaps.. smoke alarms raging, permanent marker on clothes ...but had a great time. The party favor was a roll of cookie dough with a cute cookie cutter attached. Phew!

Happy birthday!

Cutest toes!

Ticklish Lizzy.

The actual day of Lizzy's birthday (December 3rd), I let her miss a half day of school to get pampered. She chose to get a professional pedicure and manicure. She was so fun to watch, and had a great time. After that our family went to dinner at Firehouse Pizza. We met Jodi, Jon, and girls there. It was a real party!
