What a party! What a birthday girl! The weather fortunately stayed nice for awhile so the park was a good choice :) I really want to thank everyone that came - it makes me feel so blessed to have ALL of you in our lives. I appreciate everything you do for us and for the kids and it made me happy to share such a happy occasion with all of you. Now, on with the pictures!
My birthday baby (I can't believe she's one!)
Noah playing
Arriving
Noah giving Uncle Arthur and Aunt Kristina their Christmas present (the painting he made the other day!)
She was more than content to just play on the blanket for awhile :)
Arthur and Mikayla (just want to say how extra thankful we were that the Kunkle's are in town for the weekend and they came, too! They are wonderful friends and we've really been missing them!)
Noah climbing and Giselle chasing Ethan
The gang's here!
Noah and Ethan
Noah and Ethan go for a swing
A shout out to Giselle - the Super Mama! I just want you to know that I think what you do is INCREDIBLE!
Getting ready for - CAKE! (That's for you, Mom)
Coen came, too!
I had to hold up the cake while we sang because she was so anxious to dig in
Now Mama now!
Had to take the 'beanies' off her cake
Looking at it lasted all of 2 seconds
Noah excited for his baby sister
I'm going to let the cake pictures speak for themselves...
Think she enjoyed it?
Mike and Becky with Miesje and Cameron
Chris munching on cupcakes and ice cream
Noah and 3 cupcakes (I'm such a pushover when it comes to holidays and birthdays, let me tell you...)
Dan, Chris, Becky, Mike and Cameron
Still eating cake
She really did manage to finish most of it (That's my girl!)
Back to playing
An adorable Ethan!
I see you too, kiddo!
Noah and Beth playing (So glad we finally got to see the Hals for awhile! Looking forward to the Christmas party next week!)
Opening presents (this was after a quick wardrobe change ;-) )
Aunt Giselle of course picked out lots of pink, which we love!
Mike, Becky, Cameron and Coen (Mike and Becky - so glad you guys came! Mike, watching you interact with both Mikayla and Noah was great!)
Mike, Becky, Cameron and Coen (Just want another shout out to the Carlsen's - so glad you guys are around! We love having all of you in our lives! So glad that Noah and Coen have each other and are looking forward to Baby C 2.0!)
Opening presents from Uncle Chris
Not an attractive Kristi picture, but I want you all to note how many pictures I'm actually in! ;-)
Thanks for the books, Uncle Chris!
Oooh, what is it, Mom?
Wow, thanks for the really cool pink car, Aunt Miesje, Uncle Cameron and Coen!
Pooh and Piglet from Uncle Arthur and Aunt Kristina
She already is in love with Piglet (good call, Uncle Arthur!)
Loving on Piglet
Wow, what a neat Little People toy! Thanks Uncle Dan, Aunt Beth, Uncle Mike and Aunt Becky!
Princess toys for the princess ;-)
Got Piglet back right away (we may have found the equivalent of Noah's tee-tee finally....)
Noah opening his Christmas present from Uncle Arthur and Aunt Kristina
Wow a Cars tent and tunnel!!!!
Uncle Arthur explaining how it works
Uncle Arthur, Aunt Kristina, Mikayla with Pooh and Piglet, too!
Arthur, I'm sorry, but it never fails.... ;-)
