Matthew's 5th Birthday Party

Dear Matthew,
Your party:




You requested lasagna for dinner and a buttermilk cake with chocolate frosting.  We had a sit down dinner, made cider with your new cider press from Uncle Matthew, and went on a lantern walk through the woods at the end of our street.  Nearly all of your friends came and they got to take home their lantern, a jar of the cider and a daffodil bulb to plant.  I think when the bulbs come up in the spring they'll remember your cozy party and the excitement of walking through a pitch-dark woods when all you can see is a row of lanterns swinging and bouncing along.





Happy Birthday.
We love you.
