Today we celebrated this little dolly's birthday. Birthday's are such a joyous day yet I was kinda emotional about it. This usually occurred when we'd be sitting & chatting about our "favorite parts about Disneyland" and I'd try to change the subject and talk about how thrilled we were when she was born.
Thinking about that makes me teary. About how she changed our world--sending us on a whirlwind of parenting adventures and most importantly opening our eyes to a whole new love.
The birthday scene... where games were played, Collin made balloon hats for the kids & cupcakes consumed. Good times.

Happy Birthday to Avery! She is such a cutie. Love all the decos in the tree.
Looks like it was fabulous!
I'll tell you a secret. I may be all brave face and smiles on every birthday, but every birthday I cry. I cry for the year they will no longer be. And I cry because I know I should be excited for what they will grow to be. I cry because I am so proud of them, and of me, for surviving another year. And blooming.
Adorable! I just love home birthday parties!! I don't have kiddos myself but if I did I would so enjoy decorating for it :) Hugs to Avery from Texas!
4 years old, can't believe it. Now we can finally get her that job at the Jin Hua Lan Tian Toy Factory.
I still remember her party you posted from last year. She is a very luck little girl.

I absolutely love the "off-kilter" way you take photographs. They are so much more interesting... especially for scrapping purposes! You are a huge inspiration!
