Evelyn made her own decorations for her big day. And I must say, they went over a lot better then the ones her mom picked out (see “Happy Retirement”.) I think I’m losing it!
I redeemed myself by making this special clipboard for Evelyn’s art projects. She likes to draw on the couch- so I thought this might come in handy. She liked it well enough- but not as much as I’d hoped. I think home-made gifts are probably not a favorite with little ones (lesson learned!) We let her open her famly presents in the morning—my little ponies, markers, paper,

Candyland, books, and dress up accessories were all a huge hit.
