Ahh, Farm

Cupcakes

Some pics from the lovely farm party we attended this weekend. I just gotta say: if you're gonna turn four on Portland's most perfect-est weather day in September, this is the place to do it.

We partied 4-year-old style: ate cupcakes, boarded a hay ride, picked strawberries, picked corn (read: set free on an all-you-can-eat strawberry + corn field smorgasboard),

raced through corn three times our height and rode our hay limosine back to a mega-fest of lunch-y yumminess. A perfect day of sun, full bellies and happy hearts. HB, SB!!!

These are some tomatos that I stitched up for the little farm-loving Bday girl (aside our over-achiever of a garden tomato). Super easy! (ARGGG - the martha stewart website isn't cooperating right now otherwise I'd link to the tutorial. Just google "martha stewart tomatoe pincushion" to find it! Or is it tomato? I'm having a Dan Quayle moment, sorry).

What great photos of the party! Since you already suggested the place for the party AND made the goody bags, maybe we could also work out a trade where you update my blog, too? (At least until I'm done with this thesis--one more week!)

And we LOVE the tomatoes! SB used them to whip up some tomato, bread, and apple soup this evening--yum!

Cute tomatoes! (Your Dan Quayle comment made me laugh.)

The weather here has been incredible. I just want it to go on and on and on. This farm looks like the ideal place for a birthday party. Lovely photos.

That looks like the most perfect celebration! Now, I'm thinking about having a farm party too...if only I had a farm!
