Birthday Partying

We had a crazy weekend,

so we celebrated

Camille's 10th Birthday

with a quiet party at home.

She's all about animals right now,

so Adam got her this adorable Beagle puppy

that looks just like a miniature Mac,

and Matt got her a section of track

for her new obsession-

Zhu Zhu pets!
Brad tried to convince me that

a real hamster would be more fun,

but these things are pretty darn cute -

(and clean, and quiet, and plastic...)

For dinner we went over to my mom's

for a shared cousin celebration-

Happy 6th Birthday, Rachel!

More animals, more Zhu Zhu pets,

and a great big flower from Aunt Linda.
It was a great weekend.
Now if I can just survive the
"friend party" on Friday night!
Wish me luck...
