The "C" party postponement . . .

so we were supposed to host the "C" party 3 years ago but then . . .

this happened.

this lovely shot was taken on halloween, 2008. i could have been a bag of Cantaloupes or a Colossal {not so} hot mess. what i was - was expectant mama to C & P {and Consequently on week 7 of hospital bed rest.}

in retrospect, it wasn't the greatest idea to give birth to my only 2 children, three days after halloween {yes, this is 3 days BEFORE i gave birth} and apparently make-up and brushing my hair were already out of the question? a tradition i've somewhat managed to maintain . . .

anyhoot, it makes for quite a busy time of year these days - back to back parties for the C fam.

but i totes would not change a thing. as they say, all's well that ends well.

get ready for some uber-sappy posts as my munchkins' birthday approaches . . . 2 weeks out and i'm listening to 'seasons of love' on repeat and crying daily. obvs.

and the 2009 "C" party pics coming at you in a couple of hours.
