Our oldest daughter Q celebrated 10 years on this earth so we had a bit of a bash. It was pretty low key, just family.

Since the birthday is near Halloween the party takes up that theme.

We made birthday cupcakes with cute scary decorations.

And then we sat down to Q’s requested dinner, lobstah (and shrimp and scallops!) :-)

    Brilynn: she adores lobster.. its fun to watch her dig in. I didnt eat one, I prefer the shrimp and I would rather eat some chesapeake blue crab (with all the trouble) than lobster.. cant say why exactly!
