Birthday Girl





Can you believe it? Our little girl is one year old! It feels like yesterday she entered this world and changed our lives more than we could ever imagine. We spent Memorial Day celebrating with many friends and family, who made Grace's birthday such a special event. Thanks to all who attended the party and to many more who were there in spirit and sent Grace such special gifts and cards in the mail.

We joke with our large group of friends how just a few years ago we never would have thought our parties would turn into kid central. In total we had 8 kids under the age of 2 1/2 at our house, making it a challenge to coordinate nap and meal schedules. But it always works out and makes for a great time.

After Grace had her first "practice run" with a birthday cupcake that my mother made for her a little over a week ago in Denver, she got another shot at cake made by Scott's mother. Both times she was much more interested in playing with it than eating it. Although she did like sucking on the sugar roses that were used for decorations.
