Today's post is dedicated to my sister!
She made my recent birthday super-special...the best birthday ever!
The big celebration actually began the morning before my birthday, with a delicious cinnamon cake birthday-eve breakfast! On the morning of my birthday, I woke to find my bed filled with balloons that she, my niece and nephew had decorated with markers. Then upstairs, fresh-baked chocolate chip scones and blueberry scones were served hot from the oven!
We spent the day at The Chicago Art Institute seeing highlights from the collection and enjoying the
Holly Days Family Festival! We visited the exhibition Animals around the World: Picture Books by Steve Jenkins in the Ryan Education Center and created paper animal sculptures of our own!
We had an Italian dinner and ended the day with...you guessed it...chocolate lava cake!
My visit was filled with wonderful art, yummy sweets, and lots of warm love!
