Half Birthdays

Well for those of you who don't know, Kate's birthday falls 3 days before Christmas. And as every good daughter of a mother whose birthday falls 4 days AFTER Christmas, that's a pretty crappy time to have a birthday. I learned the ins and outs of what to do and what NOT to do for a Christmas birthday at a pretty early age, so around here my parents (along with me and Blake) celebrate the girls half birthdays. (This also helps spread out the birthday cheer - aka presents - throughout the year). This year involved much fanciness for fancy girls, lots of books and, of course, pink lemonade cake. Yum!
