~ Happy 4th Birthday Lennah ~

Happy 4th Birthday to our precious First Born! Lennah's birthday was celebrated the Saturday following her birthday of August 21st. We combined a Hawaiian themed BBQ with her party as it was to be our last get together before the end of summer and William's arrival. The kids limboed until the sun came out, played outside, ate great hot dogs and hamburgers by Daddy the BBQ'er and even got to unwind with a cartoon. Thank you to everyone who could be there to celebrate Lennah's big day!

~ Lennah's 2nd Birthday ~

Lennah's Birthday "cake" after Grandma rescued it! Gotta love cool whip and sprinkles.

This is how it started out. For some reason, not only did it stick to the pan. But, when my mom was trying to ice it, it also stuck to the plate and fell apart. Since none of us bake, we decided to blame it on the high altitude.

Lennah knew exactly what to do, she even waited until we finished singing "Happy Birthday".

Ummm, good. And it was! She especially liked the police car paper plates.

We celebrated Lennah's 2nd Birthday, here in Takla Landing. We were so lucky that Grandma, Auntie Sheri, and cousins Eric and Addison could be here with us. We also fired up the webcam so Nana, Nona, Papa and Uncle Dan could be with us, as well.

We weren't sure she was going to get a cake, as the power had been out since Wednesday night and didn't come back on until Thursday afternoon, just in time to bake her "cake". But all in all, Lennah had a very special day. Happy Birthday Kiddo!!!

We celebrated Eric's 3rd Birthday on Sunday of the May long weekend. His actual birthday is May 16th. It was all things Fireman, complete with a water hose. As usual, Lennah had a fantastic time with her favourite cousins, aunt and uncle. I even got a treat this weekend with a pedicure. I said if I lasted past Mother's Day I would treat myself!

~ The Red Rocket ~

Lennah got an early 2nd Birthday gift from her Grandma Nelson this month. A Red Rocket trike! We felt she should get it early as the season is so short in Takla and by September would likely not have much use for it - it snows early there remember.

On Monday the 12th, my sister Sheri, my Mom and best friend Deanna celebrated a belated Mother's Day at Montana's. We also celebrated an early birthday for cousin Eric. He turns 3 on the 16th.
