Party Recap...

Because our day turned out so windy, the party became something a bit less constrained that I'd imagined! The "dirt cake" was organic, gluten-free, and vegan. So good, but SO rich.

Party Highlights

Best Moment

Kids realized the dirt cake wasn't really dirt.

Most Touching Moment

My baby is 7.

Funniest Moment

All the older children were seeking the last hidden bug which was found by the 20 month old! They were shocked she found it and not they and inspected it twice to be sure it was really the "correct giant, plastic bug".
