Party the Second

My cousin Leah and her boys were sick on the day of Millie's party, so they visited for a milder version the following week.



I made these sickly-sweet, cream-filled cupcakes, easy on the eyes but hard on the belly.



We went to the park and the crick, which, even nearly dry, provided some fun.










Noah found a big rock.



John found a small one.



Millie built a dam.



She also caught a minnow.



Leah smiled and watched.



And Isaiah smiled with her.



With golden light slanting down, it was a good way to end a day.
