Happy 4th of July!

As is the tradition, we had a cookout at Shawn's parents house to celebrate the 4th of July. It was a fun day filled with bbq, kyaking in the pond, frog catching, sparklers, and good company!

Adelaide's First Birthday Party

Yesterday we celebrated Adelaide turning one with a monkey themed party at our house. Monkey because I call her my little monkey and she loves banana's. 

The Spread: Dessert Table

The Food Table: Jimmy John's subs, veggie tray, chips, potato salad, berries and peanut butter honey banana sandwiches

To drink: raspberry lemonade 

 The proud mama with the Birthday Girl!

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to! She reached for the candle right as Lillias blew it out for her and we think she kinda burned her finger :( We tried to feed her some cake but she was more interested in just being comforted in my arms (I won't complain, but it was sad!)

Present Time! She was still a little upset from the whole candle incident but sat on daddy's lap long enough to open most of the gifts. 

The invitation:

We love our sweet Adelaide and it was fun to celebrate her with some of our family and friends!
