James left early for a meeting with someone about some work at a golf course.  I went out while the boys were still asleep to find a birthday cake for Ruby.  I went to the Fry's Marketplace on north Hayden Rd., a very nice store I might add.  James's sister Carmen sent the cutest Hello Kitty fondant cutouts for a 9" round cake.  The cake I got was a little small but the finished product looked something like this:

Thanks so much Carmen for sharing your talents and making a little girl very happy.

The boys and I went to IHOP for lunch at Alex's request.  I had a veggie omlet which was very tasty.  The boys got a kick out of a group of older women next to us who were playing some kind of board game.  They thought it was funny for them to be in a restaurant playing a game.  Alex had biscuits, gravy, bacon and eggs and Michael had the grand slam breakfast with pancakes.  

Ruby's party started a 3.  Here is a picture of her staring at her cake, which she did for about 30 minutes.

More random pictures of Ruby's party.  The most fun was had out in the pool.  The following people attended: James and I, Stacy, Joshua, Michael, Kim, and Joe, Sheri, Alex, Ben, Max, and Evan, Darrel, Trina, Ruby, Addy, and Rowan, Trina's Mom Suzy, Lacy and baby Emma, Bryce, Alexus, Kylie, Kayla, and Kreed.  

Ruby was very shy when everyone started singing to her.

After the party was over Michael, Alex, Joe, and Max spent the night with us.
