With so many people in our area who leave town for some or all of the summer, the "summer birthday kids" all try to cram in birthday parties before school ends. Edie included. This school year was shorter than usual because we had NO snow days, so the party frenzy was crazier than ever. School let out on Friday, and Edie went to a party Friday evening, her own party was Saturday morning, her piano recital was at 1pm on Saturday and she had a pool party to attend at 2pm. Wow. Such is the life of an almost 9-year-old.
Edie's party, held three weeks in advance of her actual birthday, was at our community art center where the girls made "secret books," which are actually little boxes for special possessions. They are a really nice group of girls and I manned almost the entire party solo while Chris and Gemma were at soccer.
