Double digits

The day before Halloween our Eve celebrates her birthday. She loves having her birthday the day before Halloween, as she told the doctor this week- "I get presents then I get candy." I see her logic- how fabulous. 

This year Eve got a tenth birthday party, a family party, and a second family party (Christian was gone on her actual birthday this year). For her party this year she chose an art party. 

We had a lot of fun planing this one. Eve and I scoured Pinterest for ideas and found some fun art projects. We even found a fun invitation. 


The  girls painted canvases, made bookmarks, painted letters of their name, and ate more marshmallows and M&Ms than I thought was possible for ten year old girls. 

Really, they had so much fun as evident by the picture below.  Extra points if you can find all nine girls.

Eve had a rather exciting birthday. It started with the Halloween Parade at school, then a short day from school, then a Witches Tea with the neighborhood girls. Finally she had a small family celebration with a peanut butter chocolate pie- so yummy. Eve has great taste. 


Christian had to travel for work over her birthday so Eve lucked out and had a second birthday celebration. Yup, that's right she got to pick a second round of favorite meals and then have yet another special treat. This time she chose chocolate cupcakes. 


We are so proud of our artistic girl. Eve really has great talent in art and we are proud that she takes the time to develop them and share them with her siblings. Eve is a fabulous big sister she loves to play pretend with Matty and read to him. She enjoys so many things and has a big heart, recently she knitted three hats and crocheted one scarf to send to an orphanage in Kenya. We are so lucky to have her in our lives. 

Happy Birthday Eve
