I had a great birthday this weekend and we celebrated with some friends from our bible study. I feel so blessed to be given the gift of time from such wonderful friends. We started the day at the water park pool. Then off to lunch with Grammy and Pawpop and dinner with everyone again at the house. It was one of the best birthdays I've had in a very long time. I'm optimistic that this will break the chain of my "yucky birthdays" of the past several years.


The sheepish grin is because Suzy blew out the candles on Mommy's pie before everyone was done singing! Thank you,Gwyneth for taking such a great shot to capture this moment!
Suzy was quite a fan of the birthday hat.

One of the best memories of the night was after dinner getting three of our four girls clean in the tub together. It was so cute. There was shaving cream everywhere! (Hence the milky water - it's just the soap.)
