one year older.

first off: happy birthday jordan! and happy birthday, mimi!

it is my grandmother's birthday today, and also jordan's birthday today--for a couple of weeks, he will be older than me :) in celebration, i am linking to a favorite blog, party perfect. 

sara posts the loveliest themes and ideas for parties out there! all of them are home-spun, handcrafted, old-fashioned types of parties with lots of lovely color and vintagey charm. a really great spot if you have kids, and don't want to do the typical party-in-a-bag type of birthday celebration. 

tonight i will be making vegetarian chili, jalepeno cornbread, and (shhh, it's a surprise) angel food cake with confetti sprinkle frosting (it's his fav). i love birthdays. now i just have to find a gift...
