Happy Birthday, Abs!

On December 4th our little gal celebrated her first year of life outside the womb. This is a rather long post, but it highlights the week of festivities. First, her cake on the actual birthday.


The old bait and switch.

Can you tell Jonah likes attention?

Now for the party. Abby and her cousin Ryan had a joint family party, so it was all about superheros and princesses. Here is the princess herself awaiting the arrival of guests.

There were a few games, all of which involved the kids rescuing the princess from the evil villain (aka Uncle Reed). Here they are detaining him beyond his strength.The princess in her "cage" anxiously awaiting the aid of her rescuers.
She's saved!
What you can barely see here is the celebration in the basement for a successful mission. It was a dance party with glow sticks in the dark basement. I think the kids could have done this for hours. We had to have an encore after dinner.
The chaos that is opening gifts.
