Lulu's first birthday party


Sadly, this is the only picture I have of her in her dress. It happened to be about 85 degrees and sticky. The blowup pool in the yard seemed more appealing to the guests.

All of the kids playing in the pool.

Haddie and Lulu with Nanny by the pool.

Laine, LuEllyn, Nanny, Kers, and the birthday Girl eating.
The other side of the porch: Ben, Thad, Jerry, Lee, Lance and Lance's girlfriend Kathleen.


Lulu had plenty of help opening her presents and playing with them.



We were at the cutest store, The Farmer's Daughter's Market, and Lulu spotted this big toy. It is handmade by a local retired man. Lee spoiled his girl and got it for her.


Jared, hank, Lulu and Haddie taking a quick break for a picture.


Our little family.

Her first bite of cake (red velvet, of course...it had to match the pates and napkins).
She got the hang of it quickly.

The other birthday boy. Thad graciously shared his birthday with our girl.

Congrats on the speedy blogging Lions! Happy Early #1 to the Girl/Niece/Cousin! Thanks for a great family night and for including Thad in the festivities too. Hank's ready for some pool splashing again soon :) and Haddie's ready to practice "sharing". :)

Happy Birthday, sweet Lulu! You seem like such a happy, sweet little soul!

Now, why do we look about the same in our bathing suits, but the rolls are cuter on you?! ;)
