Our sweet baby girl turned one last saturday, and I truly can't believe a whole year has already gone by. She has been such a joy to us and we can't imagine our lives without her sweet smile, bubbly laugh and constant energy. We are so thankful the Lord chose us to watch over and parent her, what a blessing. Our continued prayer for her is that she would grow up in the knowledge of God's grace and love for His children, and that she would choose to follow Him with her whole heart and live a life as an obedient servant to her King. We love you so much Maggie Grace...Happy Birthday!
Does this look like a one year old or what? She just blossomed over night ;)
I had to throw this pic in bc it marks a very funny moment. The other night we decided to grill out and Maggie helped Tyler with the grill. Every time he opened the grill lid she made this face (and yes so did Tyler). It really made us laugh. This is about the fifth time she made this face when Tyler opened the grill. The girl really likes steak. P.S Thanks Corrie for the head bands.
Okay onto the birthday party. Here is Maggie enjoying her chocolate cake. Yum Yum...
We had a lot of fun with friends at Maggie's party, especially when we played outside with bubbles. Celia and Bennett were professional bubble poppers.
Sam felt like popping bubbles was pretty good exercise, but Pilates was even betteer, so he led a few of us in some exercises. Thanks Sam you really made us sweat.
ANd the party fun continues!!!
As an extra special birthday treat Grams, Grandpa and Aunt Melodee came into town for the week. So, we headed to the Billy Graham library. This is fast becoming one of my favorite things to do with out of town guests.
Grams is a really good storybook reader.
We love you guys and we are so glad you could come for this special occassion. And, as many of you may know this was almost not possible. A little over a month ago Grandpa had quadruple bypass surgery and he is recuperating like a champ. Some Grandpas might get slowed down by something like this, but not this one..celebrating his granddaughter's first birthday is certainly a priority. BUt, seriously we thank the Lord for healing Grandpa and allowing him (and of course Grams and Aunt Melodee) to come and be with us this week.
