"My skin is kind of sort of brownish pinkish yellowish white.
My eyes are greyish blueish green, but I'm told they look orange in the night.
My hair is reddish blondish brown, but it's silver when it's wet,
And all the colors I am inside have not been invented yet."
-Shel Silverstein

Today was the day!

Today was the big day. The birthday party! Whew. I'm absolutely exhausted (so why am I blogging?! To post photos for everyone, of course!)

Here are some pictures from today:


I think everything turned out really well, and my son enjoyed it, so that was the most important part!
I made our pinata (super easy!) and my dad made the most adorable cupcake platter! There are not words for this! Made from an old Mickey Mantle bat- how precious?!


I think it may have been my favorite part!
