Helena's birthday

She opened the presents that her siblings had made first thing. Nora and Henry had gotten their gifts ready weeks ago and couldn't wait any longer. There were more presents to open in the evening.The dinner menu she selected: roasted root vegetable soup, bread, and coleslaw. Then we had cake and homemade vanilla ice cream. She also requested black and blue cupcakes so we brought chocolate cupcakes with blue icing to playgroup the next day.
My sisters came to visit for the long weekend and we took the opportunity to celebrate again.
