Yesterday was my goddaughter’s 1st birthday. There was just the right balance of kids to adults and adults to alcohol. Not to mention the weather was divine. I got a few good shots (I should have — I took 120 of them) and thought I would share. Here is the sequence of events.
First, not so sure she likes this “party thing”:
Wait, there’s cake – this might not be so bad. In fact, I think it might be love …
The first tentative touch:
Seriously eating a strawberry:
Okay, now this is feeling pretty good …
And finally, pure joy. Because really, who wouldn’t want to enjoy cake like this? Especially while wearing a tiara.
And finally, this picture is especially for my blog friend ‘e’ over at Looking for George. Because although you can’t really know someone from the internet (notice I didn’t capitalize the word!), I feel confident in the fact that she will enjoy this particular photo. If my other readers don’t “get it” you need to go right on over to her blog and select the category “Blue Barb”.
Wait for it

I hope everyone had a great weekend and the coming week brings a little calmness out in the adoption world.







Those are wonderful pictures! Hope that she had an amazing birthday!
Okay, first I thought, “Wow that cake looks sinfully good, and is there a way I could reach into my computer screen to eat some and then not get a migraine from it?” Then I got to the end! Holy cow I haven’t laughed that hard for a long, long, time! Thanks!
That child is just absolutely precious. I love the tiarra!
Wonderful!!!!
Love you and Shon.
Tell the witch with the knife to drop it or I’m calling the cops!
POPPY
(laughing) I love the tiarra! Even though I will soon be 34 (gasp!) I have a group of friends that still break out the tiarra on birthdays…good times!
Ok, so it’s time for a new post on this blog now…what gives? Just leave us hanging why don’t you.
Great pics. Love the blog, just found it.
I miss your blogging.
Any word on travel yet?
I’m checking every day.
Watching and waiting for news…anything yet?
