May 2009... Happy 1st Birthday!

Happy 1st Birthday Casen & Emy!

We had Casen & Emy's 1st birthday party a week early....
So on the 16th of May we invited over some friends to play... swim.... eat... eat... eat... laugh and have fun....

We decorated the house in a garden theme and decorated sugar cookies and cupcakes....

We also had Kellie make us a special cake for the party....

I made special birthday hats for Emy and Casen.... they look so adorable in them....

Thanks to everyone for coming and celebrating with us.... it means so much to us to get together with friends and family and share these times....


Friday was their real birthday.... May 22nd....We continued to celebrate.....
Greg and I took the twins to Osaka... a Japanese Steak House....
It was the kind with the Hibachi tables.... the kids loved the flames and talent of the juggling chef....

They scarfed down chicken... zucchini.... fried rice... and then they served them birthday cupcakes.... they came out beating drums and singing!
The kids didn't know what to think.... but they did enjoy their 2nd attempt at eating cake and frosting!
We can't believe that it has been one year.... I love being a mom and can't put into words the happiness I feel.... I am sad that everybody was right..... time passes so quickly.....

in 17 years I will be posting pictures of them moving into the dorms.....
YIKES!

She has taken the cutest pictures of the kids and done most of our Christmas cards....
