Happy Birthday, Baby R!
Today, we went to Baby R's first birthday party, which was held in his backyard. Cousin and her partner live about an hour and a half from us, and they have a great yard, including a beautiful deck that they built themselves.
There was a pretty big crowd at the party, including lots of wee ones, and they had a bouncy house (a small one, not the kind that you rent) and a kiddie pool and water balloons.
We had a good time, but left after cake and ice cream, because I was pretty worn out.
Just as we got home (remember, it's an hour and a half away), Shrike realized that she'd left her purse there!
Cousin is going to take it to work with her tomorrow, in CapitalCity (only an hour away) and Shrike will pick it up from her there.
Other than that, it was a lovely day.
Update: Shrike recovered her purse without incident, although she was a little worried about whether she'd have enough gas to get there, because I'd forgotten to give her either my credit or debit card!
ReplyDeleteThis is a bit funny - This morning, Cousin and Partner wanted to talk to Shrike about the pick-up arrangements, so they called er cell phone. Multiple times. Before realizing that it was with them.
