We had another backyard wedding and reception. This time our friends used our yard and had to do all the work. Well.....we did a lot of flower-planting and yard work to get ready. I obviously don't have my new camera figured out yet. Still thinking I can just pick it up and shoot...like the old camera.....WRONG!
Still setting up the food and guests are arriving.
Can you see my chocolate babies on top of the cupcakes? Joyce made chicken salad sandwiches. I made cookies and tarts and cupcakes. Larkie decorated the cupcakes and they looked just like Anne Geddes babies all naked and decked out with flowers in their hair....SO CUTE!
Joyce and Sonia still working on their strategy in the kitchen. I learned how to "flood" a cookie this week....I made baby "onesies." LOOK OUT CHRISTMAS cookies....here I come!
We headed out to Hohokam Park for the start of the 13 mile run at 7am. The kids were cranky so we took them to breakfast while their mommy ran the half marathon called Shun the Sun.
Here is Larkie having entered the stadium and approaching the finish line.....GO LARA!
Yup! That's our Strawberry Blonde with a very beet red face. PROUD OF YOU, Larkie! Her first marathon run. The other runs that day were for 3 and 7 miles. I was amazed that she chose the hardest one for her first time. Ryder loved playing on all the free jumpy castles they had around the field. Kendra just wanted her nap. We followed her when we could in the car. It was pretty exciting to watch her pass the check points.
