its a beautiful day in the neighborhood

ah. well, today was just beautiful. low 70s i'm guessing and not a cloud in the sky. evie and i spent the afternoon playing with a ton of chalk in our driveway. they were an early birthday gift for miss evie, from my cousin emily. and they were a hit! not only did evie have a ton of fun with them, but i did too. i brought evie's slide into the front yard, underneath our big tree and she had fun sliding into piles of leaves [i don't own a rake!]. i made us a picnic lunch- the classic pb&j- always delicious, and we sat in the driveway and soaked up the sun. what a fun day! evie is recovering; napping in bed, and i am off to get ready for class tonight. then, out for dinner and girls' night with my cousin sally & some friends! i hope everybody else is enjoying today! remember, "every day is new and magic."

here's my favorite... i think she wanted me to trace her...? she is not crying- or in pain as it appears, the bright florida sun was simply in her eyes, and she is not a sunglasses kind of gal! silly girl!

let me eat cake!

little miss evie will be 2 [!!!] this week... and i have been dreaming of birthday cakes for my little bunny... we have a great tradition in my family when it comes to birthday cakes. every year since i turned 16 i have requested a crazy shaped cake from my mother, and every year she delivers!! she has made me a squirrel with water skis, a raccoon eating a strawberry, a zebra wearing a cowboy hat, a flamingo with star shaped sunglasses, two owls on a branch... etc. etc. SO, when evie was born, i vowed to do the same special thing for her. last year for her first birthday i kept it simple with a kitten... i'm thinking about a bunny this year. i love how her birthday is always going to be around easter because there are great spring party decorations and picnic-y supplies everywhere with bunnies and little lambs and chickadees too!

so here are some cutesy cake pictures... i think the cloud might be the only achievable one... i am no expert, but check back when evie turns 25 ;]

shall we save the best for last....?
