Laura's Graduation Party

We held a small party to celebrate Laura's graduation from college. Here are some pictures:

Laura's cake.

You can't tell from the pictures, but Hayley tried to pick up the cake and carry it into the kitchen. She was not successful. Fortunately, the damage was minimal, and Hayley was very sorry.

The cast didn't seem to slow him down...
