The day of Birthdays.

This weekend was crazy!  Saturday night was spent baking over 50 cupcakes for Carter and Sophie’s kid birthday party and preparing our crock pot chilli for the extended family birthday party on Sunday evening. I am not sure what I was thinking when I decided to have 2 birthday parties in 1 day but Kris and I rocked them both and we successfully hosted 90 people in our house!!

The Kids Party


We were excited to have Mister Milo from Wonder Why Entertainment and he was awesome.
(And affordable)

We feasted on some pizza, veggies, and also had some tasty cupcakes (recipe to come soon)

One of the greatest things about it all – we were able to host in our home. Words I never thought that I would be able to say so soon.

With a little break in between and some time for Carter to play outside with a friend and cousins, Sophie took a much needed nap. And then it was on to prep for the next party.

The Extended Family Party

This party while there was still a lot of people in our home, was a tad bit more relaxed as there were significantly less children.
 
On the menu
Basic Chilli in bread bowls
Coleslaw with ginger dressing.
Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake

Another success and at the end of it all Carter & Sophie went to sleep, happy and feeling very spoiled and mommy and daddy went downstairs and had some drinks.
Honestly though – I can not wait to do it all again next year. 😉
