Elliott's Birthday!!

This month has been CRAZY BUSY. Last week was Elliott's birthday...and...well,

HE DID BUY ME A CAR...!!

So his birthday dinner should be something special...

Lilly worked on a special artsy card...

She was SUCH GOOD HELP. She set the table...the good china and Aunt Rozella's silver...

She put up streamers...

Special table decor, even!!

OF COURSE, I WAS BUSY COOKING...

The menu was: snow crab legs, popovers, shrimp, deviled eggs, spaghetti and the FIRST PESTO of the year.

The kids were very pleased with the party.

The shrimp were gigantic!

Elliott said NO CHOCOLATE CAKE...ugh...but, I could not NOT have a dessert...so Lilly made an old-fashioned Lemon Icebox Pie (THANKS, LINDA P....IT WAS AMAZING)...
