Birthday Boy!

James had a wonderful birthday party!

Many of his friends came to our "indoor playground".

Brandon

Elijah

Eve

Natalie

Marcel

Mason

Ellie

and her brother Oscar

Tylor

and his brother Braydon

Mia

and her little sister

Catlynn

James had so much fun playing with all the tents, tunnels and other toys his friends brought to share.

James friends had a great time playing with all the toys too.

Brandon wouldn't slow down for anyone!

Mason wanted to go for a ride in the doll stroller. Why push when you can ride?

Mia loved the tunnels.

All the boys loved to play with the cars, even Dave.

Tylor was having a great time riding on the bike.

Even Grandma Sue had fun playing with the birthday boy.

Ellie was having fun too - as long as James didn't take any of her toys away!

There was yummy food

It's not a birthday with out the cake!

Made by yours truly...

Dad helped James make a wish a blow out the candles.

I think James wish came true when he got to drive Lightning McQueen around the cake a couple times.

Natilie and the others enjoyed cup cakes.

I thought black sparkles would be less messy then black frosting...

Maybe I was wrong..

Of course no party is complete with out presents:

It was a wonderful party

because of the friends that bless our life!

JD's b-day Party Update

We are moving the party to our church building gym.

532 West Lemon
Monrovia, CA 91016

cross street - Mayflower

We will start at 10:30. This is a big indoor b-ball court. I would like to turn it into an indoor playground. So bring any tunnels, tents, balls, and toys you would like to share. We will still have a light lunch, cake and open presents. You are welcome to stay until 12:30 - but we have to be out by 1:00. Someone else is getting rained out on their b-day and reserved the gym for the afternoon. : )

Thanks!

my new camera

I know I need to post for November and December - but I was using my film camera those months and haven't developed the pictures yet. However, with a little help from Santa(s) I was able to purchase the digital camera I have been saving up for. Here are some pictures I took the other day.

The following pictures were taken at the LA arboretum:

My wonderful and beautiful sister in law Shauna:

And her handsome and full of energy (which I love) son, Justin:

The following were taken outside my house:

Special thanks to: Joan & Bob Vaughan, Kip & Sue Vaughan, Jen & Ben Coon, and anyone who purchased a handmade card from me in the last year!
