Rather than going on and on about how behind I am on blogging, I will just move on....
We celebrated Megan's 5th birthday in October and it was quite the event! She was surrounded by lots of friends and family and had a great time. She spent the night at my sister's house so that I could focus on the party and have it all ready for her when she arrived. We had Rapunzel's favorite soup, "Hazelnut Soup", jello boats, sandwiches with rustic aritsan breads, lots of apples that Maximus would have loved and a frying pan full of chocolate chip cookies. I did spend quite some time with the decorations, that I have to admit were ripped off from a blogger that is way more creative than I. For that, I thank her. It turned out great though and we all had so much fun.

Megan (Rapunzel) had quite the little fan base. She got a bunch of Tangled dolls and accessories and none of them were alike!
Favorite card of the day, a singing Rapunzel card.

I went over and over in my head about whether I'd be that super amazing mom that spent hours on a homemade creative one of a kind Rapunzel tower cake. Safeway won.

Just like they did for Rapunzel we released lanterns for Megan's birthday. Upon the advice of that amazing blogger mom, I tied strings to the lanterns so that we didn't cause any accidental fires for our neighbors. It was a great idea because some burst into flames in mid-flight!
Thank you to everyone who came to her party, for all of her great gifts, and most of all for showing her how loved she is!
