Birdie Brigade, another birthday party at Raleigh House is history. The day was overcast, and it rained for nearly all of it, so we were forced inside, but good times were had nevertheless. While Clara napped, Ted went to Target to pick up the cake and snacks while Julie, Joe, and Grandma Connie did some decorating. Joe painted some water color paintings of Thomas which Grandma Connie helped him hang on the window, and we hung some paper lanterns and a happy birthday swag.
Clara had no more woken up and gotten changed into her party clothes and had her party ponies done, when our guests started arriving. Clara seemed a bit shy of all the people and initially, stuck close to the three she knows best, but by and by, she was right in the thick of her very own party. It closed down just before bath time, so Clara opened most of her presents this morning, and we've been playing with them most of the rest of the day.
