Birthday Party

Yummmm.... my first cupcake!! After a couple second delay, I dug right in!

Mama & Daddy with their Birthday Girl :) We had quite a feast, thank you to Great Grandma Rosie for the help on cooking! Thank you to Grammie Kellie for the baby-sitting while we cooked.

The kids had fun coloring on the coffee table covered in butcher paper! After we ate lunch, we read "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" and then went on a butterfly hunt outside in the courtyard. There aren't many real butterflies in February, especially in the rain, so I improvised and got some cute faux butterflies at Michael's for the kids to pick up. We were lucky it quit raining just long enough for us to 'catch' some! We were so lucky to spend the day with all of our sweet families: Nonna Carol & Grandpa Jerry Cousin Sydney, Auntie Katie & Cousin Kat, Grandpa Rich & Uncle Matt, Uncle Ted & Deborah, and a surprise visit from soon-to-be-married Cousin Megan & Brian! Love you guys, thank you for making the trip in the rain!

I wasn't able to get as many pictures as I wanted, mainly because we were running late decorating before the party, so we were in a huge rush. However, we did get video...I will post one a little later... I am having uploading issues! It is still crazy when people ask me how old she is, and I say "One!". We feel so blessed and privileged to be parents to this sweet girl! I can't wait to see all of what God has in store for her precious life. Love you Lindsay Diane!
