Maya, your candle please


What a weekend! Our little girl had a most excellent birthday with a house full of friends and family. Both sets of Maya's grandparents arrived on Friday afternoon for a weekend of fun and celebration.
We all enjoyed a delicious gluten-free cake. (I'm taking one for the team and finishing the last uneaten quarter.)

There were also party hats ...
Lots of sharing ...
Hugs and special attention ...
And visits from all of Maya's admirers in the neighborhood.
... who are very excited about coming over for a tea party with Maya's new set.
Owen had plenty of fun, too. He read books with everyone who would read to him (which was all of us, at one time or another).
He also learned lots about ships thanks to an independent study with Grampie Ives.
Not quite ready to hit the open sea, for the time being he's content to hide under the chair and (thanks to a freak winter storm) build a snowman with his dad.
