Good Friends Are the Best

We spent most of Saturday at a friend's house. There was crafting and eating and talking and playing, and a little storybook reading, too. The five older children made darling love cottages and devoured a vast array of comfort foods {a la Allison, Alana + Tom}. Think two chili recipes, corn bread, Ina's mac and cheese, guacamole, cannolies, etc. It was wonderful.


My favorite parts of the day were catching up with my girlfriends and their hubbies, watching Benji and Claire toddle around on their own, seeing Buby so eager to pass out his little gifts, and spying on Bleu and Natalie playing piano downstairs. We all shared a good bit of laughter, and then we realized it was our first gathering ~ in a very long time ~ where nobody was pregnant. That we know... hee hee.
