Whitney turns 1

Little Whitney Turned 1 this last week, and the Anderson Family came up from Pasco to celebrate with us. We invited Ruth and Dana, but they told us they didn't like our ugly faces (or maybe it was because they were busy and did not want to drive 6 hours with a very pregnant mom-to-be). but we had a good time. We blew up balloons for Whitney to play with, and they were a hit.  We put up a cool happy birthday sign, and then waited for the party goers.  The Anderson's, and Whitney Opened presents and had fun playing with the wrapping paper, and even liked some of the presents that she got.  After that we went out to a Chinese Buffet that is here in Cheney for lunch, and all had a nice meal, Whitney even liked some of the chinese food (Chow Mein noodles and pieces of Jello) Thanks to all the grandmas, grandpas and great-grandmas and great-grandpas  for all the wonderful gifts that were given, thank you all so much.
And without further ado, here are the pictures

Of Birthday's and Babies

Here is what I received from Courtney for my Birthday. a very nice card, Peanut MnM's and some warm slippers.

Whitney had a good time at the birthday too. I received a few other presents from all my mommies and daddies and siblings, thanks every one.

Courtney also woke up early and baked me a delicious coffee cake for breakfast. 10 extra points for Courtney.

the slippers are extremely fasionable!!

and now for your viewing pleasure, more pictures of the baby

Caught red handed !!

and now your punishment is...

... look! a cute baby


-- baby pictures end here --

we also got a cool advent calendar from mamma keeler, thanks so much

and last but not least is the little gingerbread (graham cracker) house that could. Courtney wante to be sure that every one knew that this house was made while several young moms watched all their babies, while all the husbands played halo for the evening. so it is not exactly the Bel Air of ginger bread houses, but cozy and delicious none the less (when was the last time you said that about a house) plus Whitney and courtney look pretty great too.



buh bye
