at least so far! Scout and 9 of her girl friends were treated to five-course formal dining experience at the Red House last night to celebrate her 12th birthday. Working with Chef Papa, she created a tasty menu that was enjoyed by all. Resident cocktail guru Mama mixed up some refreshing "mocktails" to start things off, while the multi-talented Ethan helped cook, took coats, served appetizers and courteously waited on party guests (this, after scoring a goal at his soccer game earlier in the day!)
