Parties for the pint-sized people in our lives always tend to be a little crazy, but we did our best to create a pretty but fun look for my favorite 3 year-old.
Ice cream cakes - one for you, one for me.
A little natural sugar, too.
The Birthday Girl (it was a swim party)
Birthday Girl's baby sister - giving those cakes the wishful, side-eye
Not exactly a mag-worthy candy bar, but it made the kids happy.
Aaaand...we're done.
***Yesterday, as I read the horrific post about fellow blogger, Marija's, sudden death on Saturday, I was again reminded about the Universe's strange cycle. 
As my family rejoiced in the celebration of another year of our child's life, another family's life was devastated. There just aren't words. Peace be with you, Marija.
