We had a great birthday party for Hadley at the arboretum. Having it there may have been my smartest move yet. I didn't need to prep my house at all (although I do love having people over!) and I didn't need to clean up when it was done.....and the place looked beautiful! All of the kids painted flower pots, played and explored the arboretum, ate lunch, and then planted a flower in their pots at the end.
Here is Hadley with MK, who lived with us for the summer - not nearly long enough!!
Our dear Britt visiting with Hadley while she painted. Hadley did not get up from the table AT ALL. I'm serious, we brought her lunch to her while she continued to put layer after layer of paint on her pot.
I'm thinking if I need a productive hour at home sometime I should sit Hadley down in the backyard with some paint and let her go to town.
