June 30

Tal's birthday party was today. Only his actual birthday was almost three weeks earlier. Gotta celebrate sometime.


First, I gave Samantha her gift for graduation, since I wasn't able to make THAT party. I think she likes it.


The purple potato chips were quite pretty, but it's the sweet potato chip that was really delicious. Sweet potatoes are magical.


Samantha and Sara play Tangoes which is really freakin hard. Apparently they used to test the intelligence of immigrants coming to the United States by timing them when they do this kind of game. It's a good thing I wasn't trying to immigrate at that time because they wouldn't have let me in.


The birthday cake mango and sticky rice. So delicious.


Tal, pre- and post-candle blowing out. He looks almost exactly the same.
