Beth's Birthday

Beth got lots of cool presents this year for her birthday, one of which was tetherball. Since the pole for this needs to be concreted into the ground we had to do this before her birthday, but it was a bit difficult to disguise an eight-foot long pole which suddenly appeared in our garden. Luckily, lots of people have flag poles which made for a perfect cover story. When she was asleep we attached the ball & rope to the pole & then just wrapped up the empty box, which caused a bit of confusion when Beth tore off the wrapping paper!

We also went to the Pasta House Co to celbrate Beth's Birthday. As usual, when it is your birthday, Beth got a huge slice of cheesecake covered with strawberries, whipped cream, & spinkles, & she had all of the servers in the restaurant singing the Pasta House Co's version of 'Happy Birthday' to her before she blew her candle out.
