So tomorrow we are having a small birthday party for Charlie. She will be 2 on Tuesday!! Her party is a “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” theme. I realize this may be the last time I get to pick the theme for a birthday party (next year she might want Dora–gasp!)…and I have had such a ball planning it. From the “Golden Ticket” invites to the Mad Hatter/Willy Wonka inspired cake, it is truly cool to see an idea blossom into reality. Cross your fingers that it all comes together!!

This is a pic from yesterday…Charlie is loving on her birthday gift from her cousins Dali and Owen. She LOVES this Hello Kitty stuffed animal…started calling it “Sissy” right away and took it for a spin in her doll stroller. Thanks Dali and Owen!!!

And for all my sweet friends who have inquired as to the results of my test yesterday, I so appreciate the love and support. I haven’t heard yet, but expect to at the beginning of next week. Until then, I shall indulge in a lovely piece of Mad Hatter/Willy Wonka chocolate/vanilla custard fondant cake, thankyouverymuch.
