tay's 10th birthday

"tay-tay" and mom

when theresa was with us this summer, be decided to throw her a belated 10th birthday bash.

she was so excited that everyone was there to celebrate her! 

it was a classic, outdoor, cape cod party; complete with badminton, croquet, a pinata, and homemade mac + cheese!

when i asked her what kind of cake she wanted, i realized very quickly into the conversation ("white, smaller layers on top of bigger ones, on top of bigger ones, with flowers...") that she was talking about a wedding cake! OY! I certainly had my work cut out for me, but i was pleased with the outcome and she was completely THRILLED!
