Catch-Up


From Aubrey's birthday party Saturday evening:

a few of the 22 friends & family who joined us to celebrate

Aubrey mostly liked playing in the mounds of tissue and wrapping paper

a whole year old!!!!

a little skeptical of this whole cupcake business

kind of squishy!

in the end, she seemed to enjoy it alright and,
though she didn't ever dive in like my others did on their first birthdays,
she definitely thought it was great fun to play with!

Daniel spent about 4 hours yesterday priming a good portion of the new family room. The projected estimate is that 3 full days should get the whole painting job finished:

Today, Bronwyn has a friend over as a reward for doing her chores for twenty days. Bronwyn thinks it's great fun that they (and their dolls) own matching dresses:

  2. I love the cupcake faces! It looks like a wonderful birthday!
    The picture with matching dresses is so cute. Erin would be so excited-a baby doll and her that match:) Too fun!

  5. Oh, I almost forgot...
    The house looks great!!  I really can't wait to see the inside though.  House projects are fun but kind of a pain too!  We've been through a lot of them in the past two years and while I love the improvements, waiting for them to be complete nearly kills me!  So, this is a new family room??  Are you doing a project on your kitchen too?
