We had a lot of fun on Labor Day 2008. We had some family over to visit and celebrate Abigail's ninth birthday a little early. I branched out and made a new dish--stromboli (which is an Italian baked sandwich). It was a hit with the adults:) The kids....well...two of the three were not thrilled with the cooked onions on it. We also had salad, a veggie tray, a variety of chips, a couple of homemade dips and a variety of drinks.
Abigail wanted a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting with her Pokemon characters on top of it....so that was easy to create for her.
Abigail got a lot of gift cards and money in addition to some pj's, cd's, bike helmet, bubble maker, books and art supplies.
A little story about the handprints.....a friend shared this idea with me just before Abigail's first birthday. Each year just before her birthday we have her paint her handprints onto the birthday table cloth. This year she wanted her handprints to reflect her interest in Pokemon....so she painted the red cheeks to make it look like Pikachu:)
