Happy Birthday to Cascade!

Happy Birthday to Cascade. We had great time playing at the party today and singing "Happy Birthday"

Cascade just turned #2!

Yes, that's all we seem to be doing lately, don't you think! Birthday party hopping rules! Today it was Cascade's turn and she had a very laid back, fun-filled lunch party complete with a hay ride, smoothies to order and a fabulous cake and raw truffles (yum, yum!)

Birthday girl is the queen of the day

Great dog put up with toddlers and stay put

Jillian's 4th birthday party

Bibi's friend Lisa Regier had a wonderful birthday party for her daughter Jillian, who turned 4 on February 15th.
There was a pinata, yummy food and lots of little friends for Brianna to play with!

Isabella Clark turned 1

Gorgeous Isabella had a beautiful party with lots of friends and family. Here Isa is opening presents and Brianna just doesn't know what to play next ...

Isa loved this activity center and played with it for a while

We had such a great time with Joel and Gisele Clark after the party. The girls played and the parents talked non-stop! What a fun-filled day. For more pictures of Isabella, go to her blog: www.familiaclark.blogspot.com

As we sang "happy birthday" ...

Thanks to our friends Victor and Suzana, we have a family picture of Bri's birthday. Here we are all singing to Bri before cutting the cake

Brianna has her own version of the birthday song. It goes something like "a potey you, a potey you, a potey Bianna, a potey you".
It's just TOO CUTE. We've got it on video and will post soon.

Brianna's FUNtastic day!

A new Italian friend, Patricia, and her daughter Sophia. She talks to Brianna in Italian so I hope it brushes off on her and she'll speak it fluently some day!

Our menu was mostly Argentine food with plenty of snacks, salads, fruits and veggies for everyone to enjoy. Bibi made a wheat-free chocolate cake without animal ingredients. It wasn't the best looking cake ever; but we had little leftover to take back home!

Madeleine with chocolate cake "evidence" in her mouth. Did Mommy see? So cute!

Reading stories with Lolly

We just wanted to say: THANK YOU loves ones, for posting wonderful birthday messages for Brianna. She'll read them all someday!
Thank you for your love and support!!

Brianna's Day!

What a fun day we all had! After all the hard work to get everything ready came ALL the fun of having friends and family come and celebrate Brianna's birthday #2. Here she is sitting with Lolly, a great clown that kept kids entertained with sing-a-longs,

face painting and games. Haven, Cascade and Annie similing for the camera

Ryann is a serious mouse!

The "Imagine U" Museum had a supermarket area where kids could load up on family faves and then take the goods to the register and "pay"

Abu Daniel and Abu Ivon's sweetest birthday card for Brianna

Yes, our not-so-little-anymore "baby" princess is turning 2 on February 4. Here is a sweet card her grandparents made for her. The card originally came with moving graphics and music but unfortunately it wouldn't transfer onto the blog in its original format. On the left is Bibi when she wsa 2 and on the right is Jeremy when he was 2.
(You can click the pictures to see them bigger)Here is the invitation we sent out to our local friends and family for a little birthday party on Sunday.
Pictures of the party to come...

Some more fun pics ...

We were lucky, due to inclement weather, to have no lines at almost all the rides. Here are the two adrenaline junkies!

So many hats, so little time
