Miriam's Very Early Birthday Party

June 14, 2009

With Amy, Mina, and Miriam moving to Costa Rica in just a couple of days, we had a very early birthday party for Miriam on her last weekend here. Brittney and Chad were very gracious and offered up their home for the day, pool and all. We served exquisite pesto, tomato, and fresh mozzarella sandwiches with shaved ham and chicken and strawberry poppy seed salad. We topped everything with vanilla and chocolate hot pink cupcakes with sprinkles.

Emerson knew right where the action was and promptly went to hang out with her great-grandma on the quilt. Thankfully Zoey loves to share all of her baby toys and Emerson loves to hog them all.

The kids spent almost 5 hours in the pool. Emerson decided that swimming is a lot of fun especially if you daddy is in the water. I tried to get her to sit in one of her floaties, but she wouldn't have anything to do with it. She wanted to be held and not by me. It was nice for me to get to watch her with Brad and Ryan.

It was a great day and one that we will always remember!
