As I have told you before, we have Birthday Season around here. Most folks have summer, winter, spring, and fall. When Bekah was learning about the seasons, she kept wondering why we didn't have five seasons, as the Christmas season should certainly be included.
But we do indeed have a Birthday Season in our family. In July and August, we celebrate TEN family birthdays! Throw in a few close friends' birthdays, add three wedding anniversaries for good measure, and you have a perfect picture of celebratory craziness!
Each year, we end Birthday Season with a three-in-one birthday party for my daughter Kristin, my mom, and me. (Hey, it means only one more cake, one more party...instead of three!) And yesterday was the day for the annual Triple Birthday Celebration.

Some party hightlights:
Tomorrow, I'll be back to tell you all about our party theme. It kind of just happened, most of it at the last minute, but it was lots of fun!
Tissue paper "mummies"...
...and other creations.
A little dancing...
And I just had to include this one: Papa helping a tiny party guest with her tiny shoes.
I love her sober expression!

I thought the theme was Egyptian! I've never seen tissue paper mummies before... my but you are clever people. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful tradition. I love that you celebrate all 3 of you together. These are memories that will sustain a lifetime. Three generations of lovely ladies...
Happy Birthday dear Cheryl!
