Tara's mom, Laura, made chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla cupcakes with green, pink, and blue frosting. They were really yummy! She also made some really cute cookies, which I can't describe, so here is a picture.
I told you they couldn't be described! Can you believe they are really cookies? So cute! I didn't try one of them... they were too cute to eat!
Besides all of the goodies to eat, we had chicken, potato salad, beans and hotdogs, and a variety of chips. Lots of good food!
After we ate, the kids all played outside in the sprinklers for awhile. It was a really hot day! They all were soaked by the time they were tired of the water. They had fun and also stayed cool.
Then it was time for Tara to open her presents. She really enjoyed all the books she got. Did I mention that reading is one of her favorite pastimes?
Here she is while we all sang happy birthday. She really wanted to eat that cupcake!
Everyone is waiting patiently for their cupcake and ice cream!
It was a really full day and well into the evening when the party started to break up.
And one last picture of all the kids together before everyone headed for home.
What a fun day!

Sorry about the food John! Actually, you aren't late on the birthday wishes. We had her party a few days early. Her birthday is today, the 28th, so you were on time!
