Regan's Groovy Birthday Party

Regan's birthday is coming up this weekend, and since it is a long one, most of her friends were going to be leaving town, so we had a party a little early. She wanted a tie dye party, and me, being crazy, said okay. We ended up with 13 girls (including Regan and Hadyn). We tie dyed shirts, made blown ink art, sculpy art, and generally had fun. Here's the group of girls. I don't think I've heard so much giggling ever!

Here's the birthday girl blowing out candles. I made her a t-shirt cake and "tie-dyed" it. She loved it. I even poked holes into it before I frosted it, and doused the cake in Jell-O water to tie-dye the inside of the cake. It turned out better than I thought, and Regan seemed to like it. We'll update more birthday stuff later, since we have my cousin's family coming for her actual birthday on Sunday, and the Luke's are getting together on Monday for the holiday and we'll have birthday cake there. This is not a good time to start that diet...
