Balls Galore

Saturday was a big "Ball" day in Oakland.

Ingrid had her Cinderella Ball with the Girl Scouts at the Snow Building at the Oakland Zoo. She took Mad Dog as her date. Sweet!





I had the Edwardian Ball in San Francisco...always a good excuse to pull out the sewing machine and dream up a period costume.

"Being 9 is awesome!"

Ingrid celebrated her 9th birthday with a rollerskating party and Ski Cake. Can't beat that!

(IMPORTANT: here is the answer to the question that has dogged all Smith children for decades: "why is it called Ski Cake?!?")









Happy Birthday, Ingrid!

Nine years ago we met you...and we're very glad we did!

Happy birthday, Ingrid Alice!

XOXOX

More 2012 Shenanigans

We ate crab, we danced a bit of makeshift jitterbug and we put on our best gansta faces...
