Faith's First Birthday

We had a wonderful time celebrating Faith's first birthday with family and friends. The day was a little windy, but overall we had great weather. Four friends with young children came. My mom and Derek's mom were there, and Faith's birthfamily came as well. So, we had a total of about seventeen people at the park, including the birthday girl.


We enjoyed ice cream cone cupcakes, fruit salad, pb & j sandwhiches, cheese sticks, dog bone sugar cookies, and juice boxes and lemonaide. Faith was a surprisingly clean birthday cake eater.

Entertainment included climbing trees, crawling in the grass, teeter-tot rides, swinging, trips down the slide, and holding balloons. It was a perfect first birthday for an extra special birthday.

After the party, we took Faith's birthfamily out to a family dinner at one of our favorite local restaurants , Brooklyn Grill. We had a fantastic visit. We feel so blessed to have such a great relationship with Faith's birthfamily and are so happy to have them be a continued part of Faith's life.

Happy Birthday Baby Girl!!!
