Birthday Celebrations

Kirsten's birthday was a success! We celebrated by going out to dinner at her favorite restaurant, Lone Star, and then back to Grandma's house for gifts and dessert. She chose mini cheesecakes that she and I made together in Grandma's kitchen. She received some nice gifts from the family too.



On Saturday, the girls hosted a birthday party for 10 of their friends at Lion's Park Shelter house. Joanne came to help (thank goodness). Heather, a Stampin' Up consultant, and her assistant, Ana, came to facilitate the making of some greeting cards. The moms stayed for the party too and along with their daughters, created an Easter card and a Mother's Day card. Kirsten and Emily blew out their birthday candles, opened presents and generally spent the time giggling with their friends. It was a fun, but tiring afternoon.

Charlie was dropped off at the party and he was sooooo good. He loved all of the activity. He was asleep in his car seat before I even got backed out of my parking space. Of course every event always ends at Grandma's house and the family met up there for pizza afterwards.

What will the next big family event be?????? There is another March birthday, an April birthday and a college graduation in May. July will bring a wedding, and another birthday. August will begin another round of family birthdays and a new baby! The fun never ends!!! The circle of life is still revolving.
