Preparing for the big party

Even though Brian and I have had our thoughts elsewhere, these kids have kept us focused at the task at hand- Alaric's b-day and PARTY!

Amara wears her tutu to get in the right frame of mind!
ONLY ONE MORE DAY on our countdown chain!!

Our kitchen cabinets are full of cards and well wishes for a great birthday!

Friday, Grandpa came after work and he and Al snuggled after bathtime!

There was work to be done! Alaric and his partner, Daddy, mae a mailbox together. Instead of traditional gifts, Alaric asked that people bring him mail! This way, I can put a few letters in the mail each week and he will feel extra loved for months!!! I know that some of the mail items even had gifts in them too!

What fun the party will be tomorrow!
