The Birthday!!








We had a wonderful day today!  A low-key morning spent with my sister and niece Caroline who came from Boise for the weekend (thank you!) and a little gathering to share Thai food (also what we had at our wedding -- noticing a theme that important days in our family are apparently marked with yummy Thai food!) and cake and ice cream.  The babies are usually good nappers but of course today was the exception!  So by the end of the party they were exhausted!  You can tell on the video where they're eating cake ... Luke had had enough birthday fun :)  I did a terrible job of getting pictures but we did end up with a few good ones.  Thank you so much for all of your support over this last year.  The letters, notes, prayers, meals, hand-me-downs, visits ... have all overwhelmed us with thankfulness for the wonderful friends and family that we share life with!  Happy birthday to two beautiful babies!  Or I guess I should start calling them toddlers? :)

We love Ally!!!

Frank and Martha, our wonderful neighbors and adopted Grandparents :)

The Birthday Girl!  We love you Amelia Jane!

Cupcakes  +Gelato Cake = Yummy!

Cousin Caroline -- Love that girl!

This picture cracks me up -- Maybe a bit too much birthday fun?!

Auntie Michelle!

  1. Love the pics and video. Looks like Amelia was a little party girl! Luke not so much ;) What happened to your post linking to that momastery website? I checked it out; some great stuff over there, but now your post is gone??

  2. hey tbun -- haha! your not so computer-literate friend had problems getting it to link to that specific post (rather than her whole blog) -- but I'm pretty sure it's just momastery.com
