Happy Friday! The absolute highlight of my week was celebrating our daughter’s 5th birthday. She kicked off her birthday with a much-anticipated sleep over at her Grandma’s home. And all we’ve heard this week is, “When can I have another sleepover at Grandma’s?” Grandma = 1, Parents = 0. She came back home after her sleepover to find a brand new Disney Princess Bike waiting for her, which evened the score Grandma = 1, Parents = 1. Phew.

Catherine’s birthday was rounded out with a few more presents, cake and bowling with a bestie. Another party with her friends from our neighborhood and her school will be in a few weeks. She’s asked me to make her a Mermaid Cake, we shell see about that. Have a wonderful weekend xo
