On Thursday we had a playdate for Annie's birthday. The theme was our solar system. She made this banner.
We made a pinata of the sun with solar flares. I baked a chicken, a cheesecake and made a big salad. Everything turned out well.
Plus we made cake toppers out of fimo of the planets, plus the dwarf planet Pluto.
Megan, Mathias, Asher and Lissy were there. Plus Paul, Deanne, Mary and Danai.
Annie and I made brooches and hid them in the pinata for each kid. We made trap doors in the pinata because Annie doesn't like the idea of batting something.
That is such a terrific cake. What a lucky girl to be surrounded by so many loving people. The children all look like perfect children. And the decorations are magical. I wish I could have attended!
I was born on April 1st in Berkeley, California. I'm enjoying a life full of satisfaction and challenge alongside my dear friend and partner, Bill, and our almost twelve year-old daughter, Annie. We have a great house and garden that we share with two dogs, nine canaries, and three fire bellied toads. We are choosing a path of living that holds everyone's needs as precious and equal. We're loving an unschooling approach to education for Annie and ourselves. We're trying to live a life with the least amount of negative impact to the enviornment. One way we're doing that is we're really trying to be mindful about what we buy, how we travel, and how we care for ourselves. I will post my ideas, challenges, and celebrations for doing so on this blog. I would love to hear any of yours too!
