Date Night/Aaron's Birthday!

Back in the Fall, following Diane's lead, a specific effort was made to give Violet and Jordan a regularly scheduled Date Night.  And after a little protesting by Violet, it was determined this would be a weekly occurance.

So Friday night has arrived, but THIS date night is particularly special.  Not only is tonight Date Night...but it's also the 7th Birthday of the coolest little guy I know and my first friend in the Barnes Family.

That's right...Aaron Barnes is 7! Anyway, the big party is tomorrow but tonight we celebrated on a smaller scale with Pizza and baking a cake. Elena helped with the mixing of the cake batter and adding the sprinkles and candles. 

Of course we had to make a birthday cake!

Remember how I had this kid in my Sunbeam class when he was 4??
