It can be as simple as graham crackers topped with homemade icing; the girls love to "cook." Here they are donning their new aprons Grandma B got them at the annual craft fair here in Silver Lakes.
One of the simple but special treasures we've inherited since my grandma's passing is her costume jewelry; the girls have so much playing dress-up with her clip earrings.
Hard to believe she's 4. This year for her birthday, we took her to Chuck-E-Cheese. She kept asking to go there, recalling her sister's birthday there last year. Who could refuse her? :)
It was a small but fun party, with just a few close friends and family.
