Tonight after dinner we drove down to Augusta to celebrate Cousin Sebastian's eighth birthday!
The girls were very excited about the party, but we had to have a talk before we left about how it was Sebastian's party, and they wouldn't be getting any presents. That left them a little bit subdued, although still looking forward to cake.
Sebastian opened his presents first, and he got lots of fun gifts.
It seemed like this skateboard from Nana might have been his favorite--his face sure lit up when he opened it!
Our kids did great watching him open his presents--they wanted to play with his new stuff, of course, but they waited pretty patiently.
Then it was time for cake! Nana made a delicious devil's food cake for Sebastian.
He did a great job blowing out the candles....
...and then we all did a great job eating it!
Emily thought it was very yummy, especially with a little ice cream on the side....
....and even though Kate let it be known that she would have preferred a pink cake, she really liked it too.
Then it was time to play with Sebastian's new toys, which he graciously shared with everyone.
Eventually the girls started to crash down from their sugar high, and it was time for us to go home. This is the face of a little girl who is up past her bedtime.
One more hug for the birthday boy and then we hit the road. Happy Birthday Sebastian!
