Ryan's birthday was filled with manic cleaning, unpacking, and flour showers in the kitchen. We had just returned from the farm, so dirt-filled clothes were everywhere. Plus, we had a house showing.
Side note: Having a house showing with 3 kids and 4 dogs should come with sort of a survival kit like a giant cage for them all.
The kids helped me bake Ryan a from-scratch chocolate cake. That is where the flour shower happened. I easily diverted them with the cake batter covered spoons and bowls. A-okay, it all turned out well enough to eat almost the entire thing.
We ate at the park while our house showing was happening. (We like being nearby so we canspy on scope out see the potential buyers. We can also predict how much they liked our house by how long they lingered. Once, they actually walked up to us to meet "the neighbors". Suuuuper aaaawkward!)
Maven played in their make-believe cooking cabinet.
Christian measured for me.
Tay helped mix.
And we all enjoyed it!
(It was icing-free because Christian and I don't like icing and Tay will lick all the icing off, leaving the slobbery cake behind. And nobody likes slobbery cake leftovers.)
