More Birthday Pictures






Better late than never! Right? We had a big birthday party for Jia at her grandma and papa's house on June 13th and we rocked the house! Well, not exactly, but we did have a wonderful day and Jia felt all the joy and love that comes with a day that was all about her. I think the highlight of the event was a big box of dress up clothes from her grandma. I had never played "dress-up" with Jia so I was amazed when she dove right in and delighted in her big hat, frilly skirt, and feathery mules! Best pictures of the day! She may be only 3 but she's clearly hardwired pure little girl!

We're all good here even if we are suffering through 100 plus degree days. Whew. Summer is most certainly not my favorite time of the year. We do have some things to look forward to this summer - Jia's Aunt Laura and her Illinois cousins Sara and Patrick will be visiting soon and we can't wait! Hopefully we can do some day trips to Busch Gardens or other fun destinations.

Hope everyone is having a super summer and staying cool!

Happy Birthday to Our Big Girll






Happy Birthday my sweet Jia! You are getting to be such a big girl! But you'll always be my baby! We love you so much and are so very blessed to be your mommy and daddy! I hope this day is delightful, joyful, silly, special and everything that is you!

I made Jia a lopsided tacky birthday cake which is a family tradition! She got lots of fun stuff and even had a party at her new school! Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy.

Love you Jia!!!
