Autumn Celbration

It is that time of the year again... Late October means the leaves are changing colors, the temps are dropping, Jamie is one year older, and it is Celbration Time!  (For those reading this that are not familiar with the history, about 5 years ago I made t-shirts for our group of friends and misspelled celebration and since then, it has stuck)

This year the weather was perfect once again.  We had a pretty good sized group and as a host it seemed like it was pure chaos, but the guests seemed to be enjoying themselves.

While the younger ones were playing outside, the grandparents were passing around Violet - which was a huge relief, so thank you all for that!

The day after the party was filled with clean, washing dishes, cleaning, washing more dishes, and then washing a few more dishes.  Of course the little one are not quite to the age of cleaning, so instead Sylvia wanted to try on her costumes from prior years.

Seriously, what is with that smile???
