Happy Birthday Abby!



This month we celebrated Abby's 7th Birthday! Where does the time go? We took a group of Abby's friends to the Museo de NiƱos, a.k.a. the Kid's Museum to celebrate her birthday in style! I could hardly keep up with the group, being the group photographer! Below is a picture of Abby with her friend Isabel.



Here's the gang in front of the kid's museum entrance, with Olivia.

Olivia wanted me to take her picture so badly but couldn't quite reach the hole where you put your face! What a cutie!
We attempted to get everyone leaning the same way, and then staggering them, but we just couldn't coordinate 6 girls to get everyone in the photo! The girls are sitting on a painted ox cart - a traditional symbol of Costa Rican culture.

A fun day at the museum! The museum itself is actually a renovated prison with other exhibits as well.

Unfortunately, I made Abby's cake the day before while babysitting a friends three kids. One of the twins decided to turn all the burners and the oven knobs on high while I wasn't watching and burnt the cake! So, we settled for an overpriced Entemann's chocolate cake with a little sugar "bling" from Mom.
