Annierae's 3rd Birthday!

Annierae celebrated her 3rd birthday today. She was really excited to see the Candy Land cake mommy made for her. Of course she loved all the pink on it, as she reminds us daily that pink is her favorite color.

We had a little party with her Grandma and Grandpa from Vermont and her friend Bryson and his mom Raquel. Her most special gift came from Grandma & Grandpa. It was a hand-made wooden box to hold her favorite rock collections and other assorted treasures she has. It is absolutely beautiful and she will cherish it for many years to come (she was also quite enamored with the bubble wrap it was packed in too!)

Here are few photos of the day's events...

Annierae's 2nd Birthday

Hello friends and family!

Sorry we haven't posted lately but we thought you might all enjoy a few photos from Annierae's birthday party today.

Enjoy!!

Annierae's First Birthday

Annierae had a truly special first birthday (beside being the first one with us in America as a U.S. citizen). She had two birthday parties!

Her first one was a few days before her actual birthday with her Great Aunt, Sister Marie Jude (SMJ) in Spring Lake. SMJ and her friends Sister Mary Lou & Sister Rosie put together a delightful birthday party at their house when we went to visit them. Annierae had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the cake & ice cream (she has a HUGE sweet tooth!).











Her second party was on her actual birthday of 12-16. We had Aunt Judy & Uncle Bob over to our house for a nice dinner, cake & ice cream and opening of presents. Of course, Annierae got a little cake all to herself, and enjoyed devouring it...







All in all, she had a great birthday, but Kristine & I are the ones that got the real present!
