Happy Birthday Beth

Cookies for a beach loving friend.  The silver and white colors were inspired by plates that I found at a discount home furnishings store, but I had to include a beach cookie in traditional colors because I love making them and it's one of her favorite designs.

Happy birthday friend, I hope you have a wonderful year ahead of you.

Mary Grace is Eight

  

Turtles for 5, Pigs for 6, Gumball Machines for 7. . . this year Mary Grace is celebrating her 8th birthday with an Ice Cream theme. ( Photos of prior birthday parties)

My niece, Jody, is the Coordinator of her block party, so she invited a few of Mary Grace's friends to attend the block party for a birthday celebration.  Neighbors, friends and relatives of all ages have fun at this annual event.

Mary Grace turned a bicycle into an ice cream cart, Grandma made her a special hat, and Mary Grace passed out ice cream treats to all the children at the end of the bike parade.  

The fun continued with a dunk tank and lots of other fun activities on a beautiful, summer day.

Happy Birthday to a very special girl!
