7 and a half

Yesterday was Michael's half birthday.  He chose to go out to eat for the night and mid-afternoon it started to icy rain and then turned to snow.  We decided to stay in instead.  So his second choice for a birthday treat:  Milk Shakes!

We had to get a bit creative with how to put candles up with a milk shake, but play-doh to the rescue!


Anticipation....


Taking in a deep breath....


Blow....


And blow some more....


And blow some more....


Seven and a half candles is a lot - especially when they are all around the cup.

Happy Half Birthday Michael!
