Family Birthday Party

We had a lot of kids over for my birthday party this year, which turned out to be super helpful when it came time to blow out 25 candles. Let's just say that for the past, oh, 9 or so birthdays I have not been able to get all of them blown out in one attempt. But this year, the kids SAVED the day! By the time I got to the part of sucking my breath in at the end of the birthday song, three or four of the kids were already blowing out! That's not quite what I had in mind when I invited them to help me, but hey...it got the job done.
