For Mom and Dad

Yesterday was my niece Emily’s birthday party. We had a splendid time at her carnival. Laurie truly knows how to throw a decent party. My camera was busy all afternoon capturing faces. I thought I’d post a few of my favorite (faces and photos) for Mom and Dad to enjoy in New Zealand since they couldn’t attended the festivities.

So, Mom and Dad…for your viewing pleasure…

Carnivals are exhausting!

It was a grand party, but we missed you Mom and Dad!

Of course I click on this, even though it explicitly said, "For Mom and Dad," (and I do not meet those criteria).

Next time Emily has a birthday party, I want in! Looks like hoot.

Next best thing to being there. Thanks, Jill. I loved everyone of those faces!

Love the painted faces. I have no idea why parties like this are not thrown for adults.

Fun party! So, there just happens to be a story on KSL today about a boy who had the same procedure done as your cousin's son. I thought at first it might be your cousin's son, but it's not. How is he doing with his recovery?
