Chris's Birthday


We made two apple pies to celebrate Chris's birthday last weekend!
We had a few families over for lunch, and then hosted even more friends for dinner and late-night jam session. The kids fell asleep in the den and living room to the sounds of their parents playing music. It was a perfect birthday.

So this requires an explanation: when you plug your ears with fingers wrapped with dental floss which is attached to a cooling rack, the sounds are incredible. You have to have someone "play" the cooling rack by hitting it with a spoon (metal or wood)



It doesn't even have to be your own fingers (so you can do while nursing!):


The festivities went on into the night. New families joined us, kids played in the treehouse in the dark, and Avery dressed as a superhero contractor with whirligig hat.
