double birthday


november is a busy birthday month in that there are several
birthdays in a short span.
first is elsies birthday, then a week later there are four birthdays
in a row...first emmas, the day after that it's Ana's, the next day it's jordaans,
and the next day my mothers.
its not a full week of celebrating, but i mention it simply because i think its pretty neat
that so many in one family have back to back birthdays in such a short period of time.

this year emma & elsie wanted to celebrate their birthdays together.
emma turned ten. elsie turned five.
they are auntie & niece.
but they act more like big and little sister.
they get along great one minute and then are fighting the next.
mostly, however, they get along great and can barely go two days without
seeing one another or at least talking on the phone.

and so for no reason in particular the girls decided on a pancake party!
very unique and a very cool idea.
they each had a separate cake, and then we made stacks of pancakes,
sausages, juice, applesauce, and lots of fruit. 
it actually turned out well and it was lots of fun!
good memories were made!
 
Happy birthday, Emmy!
Happy birthday, Elsie!
Hope both you girls had a fab day!!
