Tom's birthday

We had a good time celebrating Tom's birthday.  It fell on a Saturday so we had the day to spend together.  We started the day with breakfast in bed for Tom.  We made pancakes, eggs, fruit, yogurt, and tea.  The kids had made cards for Tom as well.

After a lazy morning, we went to the country club for lunch.  Tommy and Tom went out for a hike and Charlotte stayed home to help me make his cupcakes.  We combined several different recipes and made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate chip cookie dough inside with peanut butter frosting. Charlotte loves to help me cook/bake.  :)  We also made some homemade pizza.  Both kids helped decorate the pizzas.  Since Tom's birthday is on Valentine's day, they decorated it with a heart.




The cupcakes were amazing!
 Tom's birthday was also a big day because that evening, Kara, Patrick, Lilia and Katherine were coming to visit.  We were all very excited to see them.  Their plane was arriving after the kids were going to be asleep, so they made signs to show them where they were staying and where Tommy and Charlotte were sleeping (Tommy was giving up his room and bunking with Charlotte for the visit).
