Glad THAT'S over for another year!

Don't get me wrong... we had so much fun, but WOW am I tired! The weather was perfect and we had a great turnout... something like 26 adults and 15 kids. Elise's BG was 241 before dinner, and after pizza, some fruit, icing-less cake, tons of excitement, running around the playground and lots of bounce house fun she came in at 118 before bed. Go us!

And because you asked (and because she's just so darn cute)... pictures!

I know the picture is blurry, but it was too cute not to post! Elise having fun in the bounce house... thanks Winston and Shirley for letting us borrow it!

Wonderful friends Chris, Val and little Mavis

Cute, cute, cute Madison

Happy Birthday Elise, boy that is a lot of icing!

She was so excited she started singing before we even lit the candle!


She loves to blow out the candle

Waiting to sing again (we sing to her in English and Portuguese). On a side note, I love Travis' mischievous little grin in this picture

Caaaaaaaake!

  6. I just have to say she is one beautiful little girl! Looks like it was a success! I saw sidewalk chalk in one picture and I think that's a great idea to keep all those little hands busy! Never would have thought of that myself!

    A quem Deus promete, nunca falta!
