Well, there is only ONE August holiday and that is Fête Day. We have been dutifully celebrating this beloved homemade holiday for four years now. However, this year, I just didn’t have it in me. I kept thinking about getting it planned, but it never seemed to come together. Such is my life right now.
So Fête Day came and went with no special color, no gifts exchanged, and no ice cream cake. My only consolation is that I know there are others who are celebrating; Fête Day has not been in vain. And you better believe that next year I will have my act together.
In other news, today I was reminded why it was okay to miss Fête Day. I went to the doctor’s and heard this little heartbeat inside me. Honestly people, I get choked up every time. There are few things more amazing.
Baby number five…you are seriously throwing off my groove, but, I forgive you and you can even come to Fête Day next year.
See, we allow babies…

And the one that started it all
2005—Pink
Yes, the cake says Happy Fêta Day (maybe we should have kept it as Happy ‘Cheese’ Day)

I got back from our Fete Day festivities. Your beloved holiday is now officially a tradition in our family. I will post pictures soon!
p.s. I get choked up every time, too. Definitely worth letting Fete Day slide this year.
I meant to say I JUST got back from the festivities. I'm sure you got it, but still.
