Happy Birthday Plate

We painted the coolest plate and goblet cup when we lived in Iowa many years ago and used it for every birthday until it accidently got broken...  Saddest day ever.  For the past year we have been using a gold charger and a glass goblet.  Not near the same, so before Rich left for China, we made it a point to go and paint a new birthday plate and cup.  They didn't have a goblet, but the cup turned out pretty cool.  We all helped pick out the colors and Rich and I painted them while the kids painted Christmas ornaments for their ornament this year.  It was a super fun evening and it was great to finally pick it up today.  Can't wait for the next birthday so we can start up the birthday plate tradition again!!!
